http://stumptownbirkebeiner.blogspot.com/2009/12/snow-alert-skiing-in-portland.html
An urban ski parade and race in downtown Portland, Oregon - if it snows. Tuesday, December 29, 2009. Snow Alert - Skiing in Portland. There is enough snow to ski (barely) in NW Portland right now. I'm heading out to test the slopes. Unfortunately I will be out of town tomorrow morning, so if the second annual Stumptown Birkebeiner happens, please take pics! You know the deal: Meet at the NW corner of Powell's City of Books at 9 AM and take it from there. There's also a FB page here. Great Nordeen - Bend.

Roller Ski Across Oregon: Pre Season Training

Roller Ski Across Oregon. Roller ski from one end of Oregon to the other. Rollerskiacrossoregon at gmail dot com. Saturday, October 25, 2008. I had heard about the Fairmount loop around Council Crest in SW Portland, but it took me several months to try it out. It is now my new favorite place to roll in Portland. The loop is 3.6 miles of immaculate blacktop. There are some ups and downs, but nothing too steep so you can let 'em rip even if you have no brakes. V2 all the way. Fairmount - 7 laps - 2:11.

Chasing the Streetcar: July 2008
http://chasingthestreetcar.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
An urban running game in Portland, Oregon where humans race against the machines. Sunday, July 20, 2008. Somehow time went by. Me and Donnie didn't get to run as much as we wanted this past winter. We were too busy skiing. Then Donnie got hurt. I think he was faking. But we're back now. Some guy tracked us down and is making a video about the game. I kid you not. He was driving along in a car filming us. Look for it soon. I got a ping pong. Today Donnie got a christian. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Stumptown Birkebeiner: A Day for the Record Books
http://stumptownbirkebeiner.blogspot.com/2008/12/day-for-record-books.html
An urban ski parade and race in downtown Portland, Oregon - if it snows. Sunday, December 21, 2008. A Day for the Record Books. The first annual Stumptown Birkebeiner was a smashing success. At 8:45 AM at Powell's it looked like it was going to be a solo affair. But then in quick succession about 8 people showed up, including one spectator who had heard of the concept and just wanted to see if it would actually happen. Pictures to follow, but here is one from the Oregonian. Stumptown Birkebeiner's Fan Box.

Stumptown Birkebeiner: What is the Stumptown Birkebeiner?
http://stumptownbirkebeiner.blogspot.com/2008/12/what-is-stumptown-birkebeiner.html
An urban ski parade and race in downtown Portland, Oregon - if it snows. Wednesday, December 10, 2008. What is the Stumptown Birkebeiner? I am so glad you asked. The Stumptown Birkebeiner is an urban ski adventure in downtown Portland, Oregon. Part race, part parade, the event takes place whenever there is enough snow to ski on the streets of Portland, which is once every few years on average. The last time skiing was possible in Stumptown was 2007, and before that 2004. Because this is going to be fun.
