Jazz funeral procession for fallen cyclists

I was happy to paint the Behemoth (my bike) flat black. We had a great time meeting up with our peeps and taking a slow march through downtown to The Department of Transportation. We met at Pioneer Square but quickly the cops showed up and told everyone we would be ticketed for "unlawful assembly" if we didn't disperse. So we moved a block away and hoped the rest of the folks arriving would find us. After some speeches we slow marched. The downtown denizens has a range of reactions most of them very pleasant.It's hard to argue with the amazing sounds of a brass band. We made it to ODOT and after a moment of silence we had a jazz dance party. I love life in the Portland. Big thanks to http://www.bikeloudpdx.org/
