		<description><![CDATA[Portland&#8217;s commitment to mass transit and bicycling is no secret. Bus and train ridership continue to increase significantly. Bike traffic is becoming positively European, accounting for 13 percent of all traffic across the main four downtown bridges spanning the Willamette River. And even though the city freaks out during its few encounters with snow and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s hard not to spot a woman riding a bike and wearing a skirt. I mean that strictly from a safety standpoint. After all, it&#8217;s a benefit given how cyclists and motorists in Portland struggle at times to share the road. Don&#8217;t believe the safety bit? You shouldn&#8217;t. I confess: the style, the overall look, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I pedaled south on the bike trail, I heard him behind me, louder than the bleat of children at a nearby amusement park. His shouted curses, accompanied by the occasional clanking of cans, nearly made me swerve off the blacktop. The shirtless, skinny teenager passed Suzame, towing our little boy in a bike trailer, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More than one thousand bicyclists crowd beneath the Broadway Bridge, waiting for the annual Night Ride to start. Some sway to the sound of fifteen young people pounding away on drums and cymbals. When the din ends, bike bells ring in applause. Red and white bike lights are flashing, mine included. Bewildered Amtrak passengers leaving [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A modest wish for a better world popped in my head Sunday during Portland&#8217;s six miles and six hours without cars event (photo slideshow here). I was taking a break on a bench at Arbor Lodge Park, enjoying the people streaming past, many with kids in tow, headed for food or hula-hoop lessons. But I [...]]]></description>
