This was the first Sunday Parkways event in Portland. The event organizers had a 6 mile loop of roads closed in North Portland for biking, walking, running, roller blading, skateboarding, etc. Four parks were used as event centers where they offered concerts, lectures, vendors, food, etc. The city is trying to get funding to do these events monthly in the future.
Glad you enjoyed the video...that little kid is my 4 year old son Rhys. He LOVES riding his bike!

This video brought a smile to my face. That little kid in front of you looks like he's having a blast.
It'd be cool if they did something like that out where I live in Battle Ground, WA.. but if they closed down 5 miles of roads they'd have to close down the entire city! :P
