A Bicycle Built for Two

Monday, May 4th, 2009

Last Friday, two very good friends of mine got married (to each other, no less).

The ceremony was conducted on top of Rocky Butte by another friend Luke, who had gotten his reverend’s license just for the occasion. It turned out to be an extraordinary wonderfully day for the event. If they had done it at the same time on Saturday, everyone would have been caught in a downpour.

After the ceremony, bride and groom road away via cargo bike. Cheers sprung up as the flower-clad bike (complete with cans) rode back through Portland.

There were also some photos that I posted via twitter (for those friends who needed instantaneous updates as the events unraveled).
