Providence Bridge Pedal August 10th, Save the Date!
On Sunday, August 10th - your club needs your help!!! Portland Velo has committed to provide 60 course marshals for a section of the Providence Bridge Pedal. This is will be our first of many years working with these folks. It's going to be fun to help these riders and raise funds for our club! Did I say raise funds? Yes! Your participation in this event will help bring in $3,000 for your club! Check out this forum thread with information on how to volunteer and be involved or contact John for more info.
About Carlo Delumpa
When Carlo is not on his bike, he is usually thinking about his bike - or biking, bike accessories, this web site and the cute chick that shares his tandem. Carlo is a native of the SF Bay Area, where the weather is warm and the climbs go on forever. He's slowly winning the NW rain game with other sports, like skiing and hockey. And the climbing in Portland can go on forever if you don't mind going downhill a few times in the opposite direction.
Carlo is a co-founder and director of this illustrious cycling club, and the lead designer of pretty much anything Velo you see out there (with the possible exception of the race team swag). It lets him get out his creative yah-yah's and now that he's got a new iMac, watch out - you may see Portland Velo logo tattoos in the not-so-distant future.
Ever-so-approachable, Carlo is always open to ideas, suggestions and even criticism if it means making this an even better community. You can reach him at carlo@portlandvelo.net. Please keep the criticism limited to 25 characters or less, please.
