Bicycle news, culture and advocacy in Portland, Oregon. Broadcast monthly on KBOO FM 90.7
With their missionary zeal and promises of a better, fuller life,
some of Portland's bicyclists can begin to resemble evangelical
Christians with their fervor and their conversion tactics. This
month, Tori Bortman and Carl Larson discuss 'bicycle evangelism' with
Bengt Halvorsen, Gregg Lavender, and Reverend Phil Sano. Callers and
guests debate the merit of bicycle evangelism until Reverend Phil
draws the show to a close with a recitation of the "Bicycle Lords
Prayer.
This month on the KBOO Bike show, Joe Kurmaski, aka the Metal Cowboy, aka Adventure Dad, will be on air with his kids to talk about their cross-country bicycle trip as a family. Joe will also talk about his plans for Camp Creative, a Portland summer camp for kids and families that is striving to make sure kids are engaged in the world around them - not just the TV in front of them.
