It's one of those only-in-Portland but soon-to-be-all-over-the-country phenomenons. Bike enthusiast and Hopworks owner/brewer Christian Ettinger (above, piloting the monster) worked with Metrofiets of Portland and Steinbart draft technician Mike Moscarelli to build the first-ever Hopworks BarBike.
It's going to make its debut at this Saturday's all-bike, no-cars event at Hopworks Biketobeerfest at the brewery, featuring two new organic fresh hop beers as well as the regular Hopworks lineup, plus bands playing all day and lots of activities for kids and parents. Haul out the Schwinn and bike on down!Details: Hopworks Biketobeerfest. Sat., Sept 19, noon-10 pm; free admission (bikes only, no cars allowed). Hopworks Urban Brewery, 2944 SE Powell Blvd.

Seriously, is there anything else to do do in this town?
Binge and purge.
Yeah, that's pretty much it. Bikes. Beer. What else do you need? Well, besides large hunks of grilled meat, I suppose.
