You should probably know this: The Cyclocross National Championships are going on all week.

Along with that is an enormous explosion of arts and culture throughout downtown and the Old Mill District going on tonight. It's called Cross Culture and I wrote about it in this week's issue.

One of the main events you should check out tonight is Artcrank, a bicycle-oriented poster party popular in other cities and will showcase some of the most beloved artists in Bend. Artcrank is tonight, beginning at 5pm at the tbd Loft and going until at least 10pm.

I figured that you, like I, might not initially grasp the concept of Artcrank, which is why I've included this video from Artcrank Minneapolis.
