Trib article about Clever Cycles

I’m booked solid this week with hardly a minute to spare. I promise I'll be much more bloggy next week. Meanwhile, you might want to read my article in the Tribune on the most amazing new bike shop. Remember how I blogged a year or so ago about the rare Dutch Cargo Bike I spotted? We now have our very own distributor right here in Portland. Also, Brompton foldables, all the way from Britain. I had so much fun writing this! Of course the paper changed things, which in my opinion didn’t need changing. Took out some good quotes, etc. And they never use my fabulous headline suggestions. Whatever. I’ve stopped caring. I just want the money.

Sordid details still to come.

I’m so sorry, I don’t mean to play games with you or keep leading you on. When I made that promise, I neglected to look ahead and notice that today’s schedule would not allow me near a computer, any computer, until late in the day. And even now I’m not at my hideout, but stealing these two minutes to jot you a line from someone else’s command center. The pursuit of information for a newspaper article I’m writing took me way out past the airport today and various other far-flung industrial sites – in a perfect example of a schedule not suited to biking. Tomorrow I’ll resume my regular routine.
