		<description><![CDATA[The launch of Google Maps' "Bike There" feature has been a pretty big deal in Portland. After poking around on it a bit, Joseph Rose from the Oregonian asked his Twitter followers if it seemed a little "beta" to them. I replied that it was "very beta" and was even published, though my follow-up tweet wasn't published and my real point was lost. It wasn't until I was on a long ride over the weekend that I realized exactly why the Bike There feature felt beta to me.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[September means Bike Commute Challenge month in Portland – a month in which the Bicycle Transportation Alliance and the city promote bike commuting by encouraging friendly competition between individuals at local businesses to see who can bike the most in the month. It&#8217;s a great idea, especially for larger companies that draw a lot of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night we received some tough news. A friend had been killed in a cycling accident in Virginia, having been hit by a dirt hauling truck while it was making a right turn. To say that I was close to Bonnie Tinker would be a stretch, but I knew her as part of the Quaker [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How often have you heard someone say &#8220;Well, I need room to haul stuff&#8230;&#8221; when contemplating a new car purchase? This mythical &#8220;stuff&#8221; becomes the rationalization for buying an SUV or station wagon with enough room to haul around large objects. People poo-poo the Prius or similar sized cars as not having enough room for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gas, as we know, is becoming ridiculously expensive. Add that to what we now know about global warming and we see many people clamoring to ditch their old cars to buy new hybids. I know I sure did it, trading my Mazda 3 hatchback in for a Prius last year when my Mazda lease ran [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been lucky over the years to work for companies and in offices that allow me to bring my dog to work. Portland is definitely a dog-oriented town and having pooches in the office seems like a right and not a perk for many people. At past jobs, I knew things were really going downhill [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last week I&#8217;ve driven my car 53 miles, ridden my bike 31 miles, and walked roughly 10 miles. I drove to work once, to Lake Oswego for a meeting, to Powell Butte for a hike, and to Hillsboro for softball games. That&#8217;s a lot more driving than I usually do, so I&#8217;ll have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I used to be a bus commuter. It was better than trying to drive to work in bumper-to-bumper traffic then have to pay for parking, and at least I could read while I sat (or stood) in a cramped bus. Depending on where I worked at the time, my commute took from 30 – 60 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was just reading and article on the BTA Blog about updating your old, tired out helmet, which reminded me that I should change out my own helmet even though it&#8217;s barely more than a year old.
I bought a new helmet last winter because my previous one reached the three year mark, the age at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The pop/synth band Freezepop has a catchy little tune about casual bike thieving that I&#8217;ve always found entertaining. But as &#8220;they&#8221; say, it&#8217;s all fun and games until someone loses and eye, or until someone steals your bike. I&#8217;ve been the target of theft a couple of times over the years, mostly related to a [...]]]></description>
