Portland Art Museum, Cyclepedia Iconic Bicycle Design

Many people in Portland love to ride their bicycles to get around town and just go out for a stroll. We at Alfred’s Vacation Rentals love it when our guests experience the city like a local! We recommend you check out the current exhibit at the Portland Art Museum if you’re an aficionado of the bicycle or just fan then you’ll love the current show! Now thru September 8th the PAM is featuring a special exhibit from Michael Embacher his collection features 40 bicycles that showcase the evolution of the bicycle design. The exhibition includes racing, mountain, single speed, touring, tandem, urban, folding, cargo, curiosities, and children’s bicycles. Cyclepedia is a fun, interesting and captivating exhibition and something we recommend shouldn’t be missed.
