Calendar Supercritical OMEGA 7 If you desire a pedestrian and pedal-powered friendly environment in Eugene, we suggest you walk, run, bike or alternatively-transport yourself to the third annual Eugene Walking and Biking Summit at South Eugene High School Saturday. The main order of business is a town hall meeting discussing the possible allocation of $50 million in federal dollars toward turning Eugene/Springfi eld into a safe and attractive place to walk and bike. After a mid-day Fun Bike Fashion Show, participate in workshops on bike commuting, basic bike repair, accessibility issues, car-free recreation and more. And if you’re tired of turning vigilante every time your bike is stolen, the summit will provide free bicycle registration starting at 11 am. Free coffee, bagels and snacks are available for participants. 9am-3pm Sat., Jan. 31, at South Eugene High School cafeteria. www.eugene-or.gov/bicycles FREE. Altar Boyz continues. See Friday.
