hey folks,
I know the issue of riding through River View Cemetery has come up here before.
Long story short : It's an important route for bike traffic, but it's private property and the owners have nearly closed down bike access in the past (because of unsafe and rude riding, etc...) They've decided bikes can stay for now, but they want to sign and mark a safe bike route and they need $5,000 to do it.
Here's more info about the fundraising campaign and how to donate:

And for background, read more about the issue in the bikeportland archives: http://bikeportland.org/tag/river-view-cemetery/
p.s. I'm just the messenger here, I am not involved with this fundraiser in any way (other than spreading the word).
Cheers,
--Jonathan
