MADE Bike Show 2024 - Beyond the Booths

Last weekend at the 2024 MADE Bike Show in Portland, Oregon, nearly 200 frame builders and brands gathered to display their work. Filmmakers Tom Norman and Tom Powell, photographer Tyler Dawson, and host Josie Suhan were there to capture the event’s highlights. In the part three of the video series, they dig into what’s behind the booths, from crashes and events to attendee bike portraits and the general vibe.

Love that Hail Sheldon Brown sticker at 1:50. Thanks for filming!

[@dirtsloth]

[@taknname]

@@dirtsloth Sheldon's definitely a right of passage. I'm going to have to track down a shirt....

[@superevilbrian]

That's my bike and I got the sticker at our local fixed gear-only shop, Retro-Gression. I started talking about my build but was interrupted by a guy named Cody cruising in with his super rad dog (Australian something -- super smart) in a cargo bike. I was not upset about that.

[@superevilbrian]

@@dirtsloth Yes! And posters or something. Retro-Gression sells them.

What did Tom say about that gorgeous Ritchey? We need to know?

[@rickhauptman5524]

Just saw this - sorry! Tom was pretty busy and only around for several hours, primarily to give his torch talk/demo (which I got to see) so I didn't get a chance to confront him with a blast from his past lol

You can apply this to all living beings. Why kill a living being who doesn’t want to die? They may be providing a necessary part of the ecosystem. They feel pain.
