RobCat: You just brought back a couple of memories from my car & bike commuting days in Portland: Parking on the Eastside of the Willamette river then climbing the steps up to the bridge & stepping over those who chose to sleep on the landing. Also a hot summer evening approaching the Burnside bridge on my Raleigh Sports & being forced by traffic to pass way to close to a fellow half on the curb & half in the gutter, in process of losing his hard won beer. Time to go wash the bike!
