Free Ice Cream for Bikeway Builders

Icicle Tricycles, Active Right of Way and the Bicycle Business League co-sponsored an event to show appreciation to those who are building our bicycle network.

 

We pedaled out to the NE Cully Cycle Track construction site and delivered our appreciation to the work crew for making Portland a safer city for bikes & people. Our gratitude to these workers was accompanied with sweet frozen fruit treats on a hot Friday afternoon. The treats were gourmet Mexican paletas/popsicles made in Woodburn, OR by Paleteria Paisanito. We brought many paleta flavors, including: watermelon, limon, coconut, pineapple, rice pudding/horchata, canteloupe, mango, walnut, guava, & two made with Willamette Valley fruit, strawberry & raspberry. We pedaled the paletas by our Icicle Tricycle.

 

There was some great conversations and appreciation expressed. The project looks great! We were super excited to be able to thank this hard working crew with our frozen pedaled treats for making Portland a safer city for all right of way users.

 

We look forward to delivering free ice cream to work crews building any cycle infrastructure for our future. While the weather is still warm please let us know if there are any other crews that could receive some tricycle appreciation.
