TAKEOUT & A MOVIE FUNDRAISER

The Oregon Hospitality Foundation is hosting its popular Takeout & A Movie fundraiser Sunday July 26th in support of Cycle Oregon and the Cycle Oregon Fund. Grab takeout from your favorite local spot, watch a collection of great adventure films from the comfort of your own home, and raise money for the hospitality businesses in rural communities that depend on tourism. This month’s film is the Adventure Shorts program from the Filmed by Bike film festival.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Cycle Oregon Fund and the Oregon Hospitality Foundation.

After the movies, stay tuned for a round table discussion with special guests including Cycle Oregon Executive Director Steve Schulz.

Cycle Oregon's My Favorite Route series continues on our blog with Megan Moseley’s look back at the 2019 Classic. The founder of Portland-based Bodywise Physical therapy, Megan has been a supporter of Cycle Oregon since 2008 serving on our team as Physical Therapist. Like so many great ride memories, her favorite day is much more than the pedaling. In her look back at Day 3 of the 2019 Classic, Megan introduces us to the Cycle Oregon riders, volunteers, and community members who shine brightly. Click here to read her story on our blog.

OFFICE MOVE & GARAGE SALE

We’re closing our office to reduce costs and consolidating equipment from the garage here to our main warehouse at the end of July. As part of this transition we’ve uncovered a few odds-n-ends that won’t be making the move and we’re hosting a garage sale on Thursday, July 23rd from noon until 6:00 p.m.

Masks are required for all guests and we’ll make sure to space items in accordance with social distancing requirements and convenient browsing in mind. Items to be included are Cycle Oregon event apparel, miscellaneous memorabilia pieces, artwork, shelving, and more. We’ll post specific items on social media as the sale approaches. Cash or check preferred, please.

GRAVEL BIKE GOLDEN SPIKE
Oregon based designer, creator, and "luxury gravel" aficionado Dustin Klein puts an interesting spin on riding “solo together” in this fun-to-watch gravel riding video. Starting from the same point with friend Ron Lewis but going in opposite directions on one of their favorite loops, the two riders share their thoughts throughout the day with a ceremonial golden spike meeting somewhere in the middle of it all. Leave it to Dustin to keep finding ways to put a positive spin on things these days.
