The 2010 Pedal Nation Bicycle Show was so much fun for all involved (and Exhibitor feedback was unanimously positive) that we have decided to have Round 2 in 2011.  Round 1 included 4,000+ attendees, 110 exhibitors, 400 exhibitor staff, and ~100 Pedal Nation Volunteers.  Round 2 is set for April 8, 9, & 10, 2011 – Oregon Convention Center – Portland, OR.  More details and info will flow over the next months as we add additional bike related activities to the weekend, which will insure 2011 to be even more fun and entertaining for all involved – www.pedalnationevents.com + www.facebook.com/pedalnation + www.twitter.com/pedalnation
 
Our friends at BikePortland.org were the first to shout out our big announcement on Friday, June 4th.  Check out the 2011 Show Announcement HERE.

Fyi I am LIVID to be writing this post and can't wait to find the scumbag who stole this bike.

Details – Marin Pro rider Andrew Taylor's 2010 blue and electric green alcatraz bike was stolen on Friday night from the Marin Bikes demo van. The van was parked by Fire on the Mountain restaurant when the bike was last seen in Portland Oregon .

Contact me if u find, see, or have details about the bike. See pic below of the bike.

Best way to arrive to show is by Max.  The Oregon convention ctr has limited bike parking.  Also the parking garages fill up quickly (by 9 am yesterday).   Please walk, take bus, or take Max to the show.  Biking is great, but just be aware of limited bike parking. 
No bikes are allowed to be brought inside except by registered exhibitors with credentials.  All bike parking is self lock too. Bring a lock!

A long day setting up on Thursday….but worth every second.  I tried to take pics, but my hands were busy most of the day once NWSOF, WTF, NWTA, and Marin started setting up the demo/dual stunt area & gold sprints…

I can't wait for everyone else to move in on Friday… plus OBCA, Little nutty kid zone,  & Pimp bike too
