Steven Butler is a long-time friend and coworker of Brock and Aaron who has spent over a year commuting in to Portland from Vancouver, Washington. We ask him what’s to know about crossing the bridge under one’s own power.
Superfan Aqua is in to talk about her first solo bike camping trip at L.L. “Stubb” Stewart State Park. It was awesome, but it was wet!
Aaron almost missed the first Sunday Parkways, and Brock went bike camping.
