its great to see mr. adams finally getting behind all us pedicabbers, but technically, if anyone but a contracted pedicabber gets behind the handlebars of a cab, our insurance won't cover said person (mr. adams). so be careful sam, as we are at all times! xo your friendly neighborhood ladycabber.

Also, our mayor is conveniently ignoring the prohibition on bicycles on downtown sidewalks. I guess that makes him a real pedi-cab driver.

How old is his passenger?

C'mon, maybe he's just trying to pay his bills.
Unless, you know, he doesn't.

Technically, he's only breaking the law if he's moving - which, given how posed the photo looks, he probably isn't. There's no law against sitting on a bicycle on a sidewalk.

Unless that's covered by the sit/lie ordinance...

Have you ever considered "capping" the "uploads per day" on the flickr group? I don't want to be Mr. Negative, but... basically, the Oregon Brewers People upload like 15 pics per day and they aren't all that interesting to look at. Just saying is all! And asking is all! 8 per day?

Not that an 8 per day cap would make much difference to the Oregon Brewer's saturation of the group. Plus I am sure they are having fun, and I feel bad attempting to put a cap on them sharing their fun. But, in my opinion, pictures of people hanging out in bars and drinking are kind of totally boring and mostly all the same!

It seems to follow the mayor everywhere...

In regards to his attempts to cover his bases, is his support for janitors at a recent rally an attempt to reign in the city hall custodian who walked in on he and Breedlove in the bathroom? Does he want all bicyclists with him on some new venture, soon TBA?

It all stays speculative.

This will never be nailed down because Portland doesn't have TIA, god willing.

;).
