Come along with me while we listen to hardcore music of the 80s and 90s and visit some of my favorite local businesses, which mostly include ice cream or cold treats, and awesome wares. We will visit the following businesses in this order: Hinterland Coffee & Clothing: https://www.hinterlandempire.com "A small clothing brand and coffee roastery with an emphasis on sustainability & community.🌿 Based in the PNW. Run by a grumpy, feral, queer." >>> this place is a haven where I refuel, the back patio gives a sense of calm. they have vegan bagels from Red Hen Bagelry on the weekends, the coffee is super good, and the shop dog Cece is my fave. We will stop for a bit here to give everyone time to enjoy their drinks, and shop and look around. Also, there is only one person running the counter so we will be chill :) Cheese & Crack Snack Shop: https://www.cheeseandcrack.com "CHEESE SNACK BOXES, SOFT SERVE, SUNDAES, DRINKS, & SLUSHIES" >>> I "may" come here each week, plus it is on Rainbow Road which is adored by the queers :) Ice Queen: https://icequeenyouscream.com "AWARD-WINNING VEGAN PALETAS & SOFT SERVE IN PORTLAND" >>> The best Paletas ever!! And I love their hot cocoa bombs in the winter!! Books with Pictures: https://bookswithpictures.com "“The Best Comic Shop in the World” We are here for everyone, and especially: queer folks, Black folks, indigenous folks, latinx folks, AAPI folks, women, neurodivergent folks, people with disabilities, and all of our amazing neighbors." >>> The humans here are an absolute delight, and they have a great collection of comics for everyone. Lords Luggage: https://www.lordsluggage.com "Bike bags and other sewn goods made in SE Portland,OR" >>> all my favorite bike bags and totes have been made by Andy, he is one of the best sew-ist and each bag really is a piece of art. And there is local art in the window to enjoy. B-Side Records & Vintage: https://www.bsiderecordsvintage.com "Timeless tunes and rare finds. Locally owned record shop, vintage marketplace, performance venue. Bringing the noise in downtown Milwaukie, OR." >>> such good taste in music, vintage wares, and the entire place is a cool vibe plus it's ran by wonderful humans Luna's Ice Cream: https://www.lunasicecream.com "We Pride Ourselves In Creating Handcrafted Ice Cream In Unique Flavors And Timeless Classics." >>> this is my number one ice cream favorites, the taste and flavors are spot on and I always have a few pints in the freezer. And Rachelle also makes cool art, check out "blockandpressco" on IG The playlist includes bands from the West coast, East coast and outside the US. The majority will be songs from the late 80s and 90s, when I was deep in the hardcore and straight edge scenes. Examples: Shelter, Minor Threat, Shield, Earth Crisis, Will Haven, Abhinanda, and so many more. *family friendly ride, but the music will be loud and may have explicit lyrics. The ride is a social pace, as fast as I ride on my cargo bike with an amp strapped to it.
