If the option of four different cyclocross races this weekend still isn’t enough bicycle for you, I highly suggest you go check out the Oregon Handmade Bicycle Show presented by the Oregon Bicycle Constructors Association. Just having settled back into Oregon life after the lights and “glam” of Vegas and Interbike, this bicycle show was a welcome change of pace. Part of the enjoyment of the show was talking to veterans of the industry that had tales, advice, stories and tech-junky info from before I was born. If you do get the chance to visit this Sunday, I’d highly recommend it, in the meantime check out my quick run through the show with a lot of bikes that deserve better than my woefully pathetic Nikon CoolPix, and check back soon for a full gallery.

One of the most popular bikes and cleanest was the English Cycle's Mountain Bike.

Dave Levy from Ti Cycles using Scott / Mathauser brakes on his Tandems.

Chris King was on hand and showing their innards. The R45 sports a much needed toned down engagement system reducing drag during coasting.

Clean routing for the hydraulic disc brakes on the English belt driven single speed.

Another shot, this time of the rear, of the clean brake routing.

Tina from tinabuescher.com was on hand shooting the entire show.

Strawberry Cycles is using the machining facilities of a company that specializes in after market Ducati components to manufacture parts for future frames..

Vulture Cycles gets my vote for best head tube badge of the show.

The Oregon Handmade Bicycle Show has much more to offer than this small sampling make sure to visit on Sunday October 10.
