I love the “excellent posture” picture–pretty lady on a pretty bike, looking relaxed, alert, and elegant. Do you have a similar picture with a handsome gentleman? I’m having some mods done on one of my bikes to “Dutchify” it, and I’d like something to show the mechanic to let him know what I am shooting for.

Congrats on the break. Well deserved. I agree with the statement you made about being hesitant to connect biking to high gas prices. To do so would be to belittle the bike. The logic being that if gas prices fell, biking would lose people. I would hope that this is not the case. For me, I wanted to make my life slower, more peaceful so I gave up one of the family cars and use the one we have rarely. I use biking, not as a way to save money on gas (because when I figured it out, it really is not that great of a savings), but as a new lifestyle for my family. http://bikenounverb.blogspot.com/

I look forward to when you open. I will be one of the first people there to get one of the cargo bikes–an envy of mine for many a year.

Thanks for all that you do for PDX.

Oh yeah… I didn’t see you there, Chris. I should have looked a little closer. Too bad your Opa is obscured but you sure look happy being on the front page of the ‘O’ and all… ;0)

You actually have two customers in that photo…notice my bright and shiny red cleverchimp bag toward the right? Unfortunately, you can’t see the Opa I’ve been riding as a satisfied customer for about a year now.

Just wanted to say that I really like that 3rd paragrpah you wrote in this post. The sentence about ‘reclaim the legs and lungs of your ancestors for your one and only life’ ….so true.

Good for you guys. And I do hope you get some vacation in there, not just work. (though am I the only one having a pang of capitalistic panic — 2 weeks without Clever Cycles?!?!)

If your business is like ours, early-mid August is a slow time anyway. I know you probably won’t actually stop working during this time, but I hope you enjoy the time off.
