		<description><![CDATA[by Karl Benedek
The other day, someone asked me about the “target” audience for Oregon Cycling. Hardcore cyclists? I thought about it for half a second and then thought, “of course not! Oregon Cycling is the voice of the everyday cyclist!” That is what I have strived for in editing Oregon Cycling since 2002. Sure, some [...]]]></description>

In 1992 the Center for Appropriate Transport (CAT) purchased Oregon Cycling. Time sure flies—and cycles. Thanks to you—the readers. Thanks to our contributors who worked for so little.  Thanks to our advertisers, especially those who supported us as they weathered the ups and downs of business. Thanks to our distributors.
Thanks to Jason Moore, [...]]]></description>

I have worked as the ad rep and occasional writer for Oregon Cycling Magazine since 2005. It has been a long road these last few years and I learned an immeasurable amount.

James Winkelman knows that multi-use paths are not necessarily a utopian alternative to the toxic gridlock of the auto-centric road system. In fact, he knows from experience that user conflicts are common on these important transportation and recreation corridors. Perhaps it’s because for all the good they represent, multi-use paths could be considered [...]]]></description>

Would Oregon benefit from a law, similar to the one in Idaho, allowing bicyclists to slow down, yield to traffic and then travel through stop signs without coming to a complete stop or to stop, yield and then travel (when safe) through red lights?   Many if not most cyclists tend to behave this [...]]]></description>

My daughter is about to have her first baby, a girl, in January, 2009, so I took this opportunity to ride from Eugene to visit her in the hills north of Pomeroy, Washington.
I started out on a Sunday taking the LTD bus to the Forest Service McKenzie Bridge District Office.  Having turned 65, [...]]]></description>

Pretend they can’t see you.  Best bicycle safety advice I ever got.  Play the cards you’re dealt.  Best advice ever about coping with injuries after a serious accident.  Top tip about meddling in other people’s business (courtesy of Voltaire):  tend your own garden.
My list goes on.  But the [...]]]></description>

Author’s note: This article was written before a well-publicized confrontation in Portland, where a motorist criticized a cyclist for running a stop light, and the cyclist responded by smashing the car with his bike. Needless to say, YHIHF would never endorse cyclists’ violence against anyone.  While we stand by our comments at the [...]]]></description>

The steeply-banked, 268-meter Portland track played host to some of the world’s best track racers at the Alpenrose Velodrome Challenge.  Held July 18-20th under beautiful weather in Portland’s Southwest hills, the event offered up $13,000 in cash prizes to the brave lycra-clad warriors who came from five nations and [...]]]></description>
