Prizes. Yelling. Sweet jumps. Art. Pump track action. If you’re in Portland on the 5th or 6th, check out this event- with some sort of event for bike freaks of all types, it looks to be a good time.
Friday starts with a bunny hop contest, roller sprints, some sort of trick comp, and the opening of a Bike Art Show at Nemo.
I’m stoked to say that although I just found out about this event last minute, I had a few bike related paintings ready to roll that I will be exhibiting as well.
Details on the event have been a bit vague, but I’ve managed to scape together some details. The activities include a DH Slalom, something with a pump track, and of course the Friday night Bike Art Show Opening.
If you like bikes, and hanging out with other people that like bikes, you should go. FYI, there is a beer sponsor. (uh oh.)
