Causes I Support
Proud to be affiliated with Andy DiBrino Pro Motorcycle Racing since 2016. Archives of Andy's racing reports are on his blog and he'll be posting occasional new stories about his motorcycle racing endeavors.
I Support The Oregon Tuna Classic Reelin' in Hunger with Tuna and money raised going to the Oregon Food Bank, Z-Man Foundation, Alpenrose Velodrome (when we had a velodrome); I am a Portland Bicycle Attorney and proud continued contributing sponsor of OBRA (Oregon Bicycle Racing Association), and main cash sponsor of the bicycleattorney.com/racing team, contributing partner of the Monday Nights Bike Race Series at Portland International Raceway.
Proud to support the orphanage bicycle team in Peru, The Casa Girasoles Bicycle Team:
One of our recent partnerships has been around helping to bring more bicycles and support to the boys in the Casa Girasoles. Mike Colbach and BicycleAttorney.com have over a two-decade commitment to promoting cycling and healthy living. The BicyleAttorney.com team, started by a Portland based lawyer and social justice advocate – Mike Colbach – is a vehicle for bringing together people from different walks of life and experiences to share their love of exercise.
In 2022 and 2021 I sent 18 new bicycles to the Peru Orphanage bicycle team and some members of the team to train and teach the boys some bicycle mechanic skills.
KGW did a news story about this:
Avid cyclist Hugh Givens joined Centrone's team on a recent trip in November. Givens races with the Bicycleattorney.com cycling team. [...] A fiend and fellow cycling teammate, Kevin Chudy, joined Givens on the trip. For decades, Chudy ran his own bicycle shop and spent years assembling and repairing bicycles.[...] The team rode bikes with the kids for nearly a month, teaching them how to repair them, and Givens and Chudy said they know the boys gave more to them than they received.
The BicycleAttorney.com cycling team folks are always working on a good cause, and usually that involves bicycles.
I gave Hugh two of my old Hi-Fi wheels which Hugh sold and with the cash, secured enough parts to build and send two more bicycles for this awesome cycling team.
But Hugh wanted even better bicycles to send to this team.
But in order to be eligible for participation in sanctioned events, the team must possess a "national" level of equipment and clothing. This includes a "high end" bicycle with disc brakes, integrated shifting, wheels and tires in an excellent operational state, and personal cycling equipment including a team jersey and shorts, matching socks and helmet.
We're working to provide the boys with equipment that is durable, efficient, and suitable for the extremely rough surfaces they encounter in the desert environment near Ica. We've specified a robust steel frame outfitted with sturdy wheels and tires, disc brakes, and a dependable, smooth-shifting gear train that can endure heavy use and help the boys to be competitive.
In October 2021, I then bought five more brand new bikes which Hugh selected from Westend Bikes which are being shipped to Perú.
I'll be working with Hugh in 2022 to buy 13 or so more new bicycles for this cycling team and sending the new bicycles purchased from West End Bikes along with 2 members of the BicycleAttorney.com/racing team to Peru to their first Gravel Camp 2022 November 2-9.
Learn more about Casa Girasoles cycling team and how you can help.
In addition, I sent members of the BicycleAttorney.com team to their first Gravel Camp 2022 November 2-9.
This November, we are going to combine two loves together. We're holding a Gravel Cycling Camp over the dates of November 2-9. We will be based out of the Casa Girasoles in Ica and riding on some amazing gravel and dirt roads. One day will be a true adventure – rising to over 3,800 meters above sea-level on a gravel road in the Andes.
And they are off to Peru delivering the 13 new bicycles that I bought which Hugh selected from West End Bikes to the orphange and the Casa Girasoles Cycling Team, then enjoying an epic cycling adventure.
And here they all are in Peru.
November 2022 Gravel Camp - Video Blog for Health Bridges International
This is much of what our first week of adventure was like in Peru. (18 minutes of video.) We volunteered to instruct the foster boys on bicycle repair and maintenance. We also donated gear: bottle cages, tools, new and used cycle clothing, etc.
In the summer of 2021, I donated my lightly used Colnago Prestige Carbon Cyclocross bike to PDX Cycling Worlds to help support their effort to bring the Road Cycling World Championships to Oregon, while delivering a near mint-condition bike in time for Cross season to the lucky winner.
I am looking forward to seeing the winner on this bike out in the wild at rides and racing.

Andy DiBrino #62 with a 2nd at MotoAmerica in the Stock 1000 class at The Ridge Motorsports Park 2022.
Luckily, 2021 saw a lot more motorcycle racing for Andy then 2020, and some weekends like when MotoAmerica was at The Ridge, and Super Hooligans were in Washington for their round, Andy had to do a double duty racing between two events at two different locations. Andy continued to wow with his motorcycle racing riding so many different disciplines, including SuperMoto adding an AMA National Championship to his list of awards in 2021!
And 2022 MotoAmerica Stock 1000 has been some of Andy's biggest career accomplishments, and it's been a great year for him in RSD Super Hooligans too, in addition to being invited to ride a 2-stroke at the Moto Beach Classic event in the Red Bull Straight Rhythm MX.
You can find the archived videos, films and stories of Andy's exciting racing on his blog, here.
Andy will continue to be up to new and great things with motorcycles and you can find him on his social media channels which are linked from his archived blog posts.
Oregon Tuna Classic / Deep Canyon Challenge
I've been supporting and usually fishing in the Oregon Tuna Classic since it started on my own boat, Shake N Bake Sport Fishing, or the Double Down.
We actually won the tournament in 2014.
The tournament has grown and branched out with the Deep Canyon Challenge (sometimes the Washington Tuna Classic as well) giving anglers more fishing tournaments to fish for a good cause benefitting Oregon and Washington food banks.
The Oregon Tuna Classic is a well-established charitable tournament on the West Coast. Since 2005, over 1,000,000 pounds of food has been donated to the Oregon Food Bank through the donation of tuna and food purchased from the cash donations.
Oregon Tuna Classic helps meet needs for Oregon Food Bank
We've just about doubled our donations each year," said Del Stephens, OTC chairman. "This will put us a little over 10,000 pounds;last year we raised $46,000 and 13,000 pounds (in three events). If we'reable to hold even one of the other two (weather dependent; Aug. 15 in Charleston and Aug. 29 in Garibaldi), we'll go higher again.
Oregon Tuna Classic taps an exciting fishery to feed the needy
History of the Oregon Tuna Classic, and Mission to "Reel in hunger"
Today, The Oregon Tuna Classic is a well-established charitable tournament on the West Coast. Since 2005, 120,000 pounds of tuna and $148,000 dollars have been donated to the Oregon Food Bank. The OTC's donations have helped the Oregon Food Bank purchase six pounds of food for every dollar donated, equivalent to a contribution weight of over 888,000 pounds.
In 2010, Bill Monroe of The Oregonian wrote an article about the event while riding along on my boat:

Bill Monroe: Tuna Classic unleashes a frenzy on the ocean
[...] We were team No. 57 in Saturday's field and ended the day with 57 tuna, sixth in the event. The Classic weighs each boat's top five fish. Nearly 6,000 pounds of tuna and thousands of dollars were donated to local food banks from the Ilwaco tournament as the Oregon Tuna Classic heads for its third leg Saturday at Charleston.
Track the summer's uniquely Northwest event online at oregontunaclassic.org.
Colbach, circumspect about his team's results, has never been rabidly competitive, opting instead for simply participating and donating to the cause.
"That's the beauty of this thing," he said. "You can catch five fish and win or 57 and lose ... but still everyone wins." [...]
Z-man Foundation
I donated a couple of fishing trips and raised a few thousand dollars for the Z-Man foundation. Mark was an excellent guy who met a tragic death.
Proud to have been a supporter for the 2008 and 2009 US Gran Prix of Cyclocross the Stanley Cup, along with the BicycleAttorney.com other main sponsors Bike N Hike and HUB Hopworks Urban Brewery. Hopefully we'll see UCI Road Racing Worlds bring back world class professional bicycle racing to Oregon!

I was proud to support the Alpenrose Velodrome and the Alpenrose Velodrome Challenge, while we had a velodrome in Oregon. Sadly, we are now without a velodrome!
