Come have Some Breakfast on the Bridges with Bowery Bagels

PortlandPedalPowerBikeBridgeEverybody loves Breakfast. It’s the meal that sets the stage for the whole day, so you gotta make it count. But sometimes, you have to cut breakfast short if you have a long commute, which means your breakfast might consist of whatever you can grab on the go.

So come enjoy a good breakfast this Friday! May 29th kicks off the first Breakfast on the Bridges, a great service hosted by the Shift community.

On the last Friday of every month during the summer season, Shift hands out pastries coffee, fruit, and sometimes even biscuits and gravy to cycling commuters crossing the bridges. Instead of rushing to get across the bridge, this event gives you a chance to stop for a minute, enjoy some good food, and take in the scenery from one of Portlands many bridges. This Friday, May 29th, you will find them on Steel bridge(esplanade east side), Hawthorne bridge (westbound off ramp), and Burnside bridge(east end, westbound) starting at 7:15 AM.

Portland Pedal Power will be there, so come say hi! We will have some delicious baked goods from Bowery Bagels, paired with some of their fantastic Schmears. This way, you can leave for the office on time AND enjoy a delicious breakfast before headed over the bridge. A great Breakfast with a great view of PDX. Couldn’t be better!
