| | | The Wheel Deal
Why scooters are sexy again |
| |  | | For me, “sexy” is a six-pack of something tasty and cheap, a flurry of Steve Miller ballads, a Candy Apple Red ’69 Chevelle with a fake ragtop and a drive-in theater. That’s my humble little fantasy, and I fantasize about it entirely too much to be considered healthy... |

| | | Let's Take It Outside
Outdoor dining in P-Town never tasted so good |
| | |  | | There is a rumor going around town that as spring and summer roll through, these so-called “sun breaks” start lasting longer. We’ve seen it before with our own eyes—and we’ve seen them go from five minutes of bliss to lasting whole days and even weeks... |

| | | Driven to Drink
Your tickets to Portland's best bar busses |
| |  | | You poor sap. It’s happened again, hasn’t it? Your friends wanted to go out and drown themselves in beer and scotch, and you were unanimously elected for designated driver duty, stuck stone sober while your pals sing bad pop songs off-key and pick fights with 300-lb. bouncers... |

Where to go when you want to be a rock star |

| | | Comics Relief
Where to get your comic book fix in PDX |
| |  | | To us Portlanders, comic books are a staple of our quirky culture, as vital as craft beer, fresh coffee and contortionist, fire-juggling strippers. Not only are we home to a surplus of industry writers, artists, and several major publishers–including Dark Horse, Oni Press.... |

| | | South Portland:
Say hello to your newest neighbors |
| |  | | There are few places that have it all. But in this case, Portland’s new and exciting neighborhood addition really does have it all, with promises of even more to come in the future. The South Waterfront (which will soon more commonly be referred to as “South Portland”) is a... |

| | | Garden Party
Stop and smell the roses at Portland's public gardens |
| |  | | There are so many ways to experience nature and the outdoors right here in Portland. In fact, there are more than 250 city parks in and around P-Town, including Forest Park, which boasts the largest natural urban forest reserve in the nation. But at this time of year, it is the... |

| | | Runway to Racetrack |
| |  | | Every now and then, we come across city folk who are so vexed by the Patagonia-dressed happy hour crowds that they’re ready to puddle jump for good. The majority of us, on the other hand, know better. There are so many sports and outerwear companies based here that... |

| | | | The Right Fit
Personal trainers who can pump you up |
| | |  | | Summer is right around the corner, and if you listen closely you can hear a collective sigh ringing out from dressing rooms all around the country. But there’s no need to go into a panic about the oncoming summer weather. With a little old-fashioned hard work in the gym you’ll be able... |

| | | | Ashland Adventure
Why this small Southern Oregon town packs a big punch |
| | |  | | With a population of fewer than 22,000 year-round residents, at first glance, the city of Ashland seems like just a blip on the Southern Oregon map. But make the trek down I-5—just past Medford—and you’ll see for yourself that this is anything but a quiet little town... |
