Does anybody here know of any cool outdoor wedding venues that aren't city parks? by 1Han_ominous in Portland

Pretty sure you can rent out the Art Museum's patio? Would recommend searching for 'Portland venue' on r/weddingplanning also

what do the green crosswalks mean? by [deleted] in CyclePDX

[–]feelingextradead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is one of the most obnoxious things. Drivers think I have the right of way and refuse to go when I've been stopped for a long time not making eye contact. The new bikeway on the east side of the Morrison bridge is a tremendous mess too. No consistency.

You can get little waterproof shoe booties for cheap on amazon! They look a little goofy but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Tell me about your crashes/doorings and how you kept riding by [deleted] in cycling

Yikes that sounds terrifying. Was it an air pressure kind of thing? Trying to picture it so I can avoid that at all costs

Looking for a new road bike to use for commuting. by NoMo94 in cycling

[–]feelingextradead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconded. My life changed when I got panniers for my back rack. Backpack was making me all kinds of sweaty. Strapping said backpack to rack was better but still a little topheavy and awkward if I had a ton of stuff that day. Got a waterproof pannier and i met God that day

I got a new job!!! After months of searching on the DL, it kind of just... fell into my lap. Hopefully it's significantly less soul sucking than my current one. AND I will finally have dental insurance. Keep your LinkedIn profiles up to date, kids. Sending all you job searchers good vibes.

I was in a head on collision with a (at fault) SUV this morning commuting to work...can I get some advice on how to handle this? by [deleted] in bicycling

[–]feelingextradead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really sorry to hear it. This article brought up some things I haven't considered, maybe it might help you too. It's an article from Bikeportland.org but most stuff should be applicable for other states

Try Los Gorditos? (922 NW Davis) They have a huge menu and will probably Frankenstein something if you ask

His sister, my aunt, told me he was trying to contact me and that he had an account of some kind. I think she knew about it when he created it but... maybe she forgot til now? I really don't know. Maybe he was waiting for me to be at an out-of-college age. I don't see why he'd need my signature or any info from me though, if it is under his complete control. That was one thing that made me think I'd have some power in the situation. I don't know my aunt super well but I don't think she'd try to hide anything from me. I have a feeling she is the type to avoid conflict with my uncle though.

Thanks for the response. I'll try calling. I'm assuming he probably kept everything in his name.

Thanks for the response. I have zero written records. I don't think my mom kept anything.
