Description

The first issue of Laura Walker's handwritten and hand-drawn perzine, Welcome to Bend, describes the landscape of her hometown in Central Oregon, including its roundabout art, its lava flows, its "rogue animals," and its interesting inhabitants - including a lawnchair balloonist, pregnant man, and meth-selling taco shop workers.

Description

Issue 4 is the Bike Edition of Welcome to Bend. Laura interviews community members and writes about how Bend has become a "Bike City" over the past few years. Interview subjects are community leaders or small business employees who love to talk about their bike culture, cyclocross, mountain biking, and local staples of the city such as Bend Velo, Thump Coffee, Cog Wild, and the 4th of July Freedom Ride. There are illustrations, photographs, art, comics, haiku and a pull-out guide.
