Beautiful weather and a great route for Sunday Parkways in East Portland yesterday.  It seemed to me that there were fewer riders from nearby neighborhoods, though, compared with 2010 when the Parkways event was in conjunction with the East Portland Expo.  I will be interested to hear from East Portland residents and businesses on preferences for timing of next year's events.  Both festivities showcase the beauty of East Portland and its diverse communities, and I always enjoy attending whether they are held on the same day or two different ones.
