Come celebrate Lady Max's BIRTHDAY the best way possible: on two wheels, with good people, and an irresponsible amount of sugar. We'll start at her favorite small-batch ice cream shop KULFI on N Williams, hang there for a half hour... ...before we roll out at 6pm to SWEET AND SALTY, a very special treat shop... ...and end at downtown's new small-batch ice cream that just opened in July, JADE COW CREAMERY. (Note: each location has BOTH COW AND VEGAN MILK ice cream.) Come rack up some miles as we celebrate Max's birthday properly along the way. We might make questionable nutritional decisions but don't worry, when there’s a birthday involved, CALORIES DON'T COUNT. It's pure science!

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, rolling out from Salmon Street Springs every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic, party-paced social ride with warmth and weirdness from our welcoming “rolling dive bar” regulars. Most rides feature regularly spaced park and store stops, generally leading to a lively end spot around 11 PM. Come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. Strong Thursday traditions, stronger shared expectations. While you might see some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct. If you’ve been asked not to attend *any* Shift rides, you are not welcome at TNR—that’s not up for debate on our ride. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. TNR works best when everyone helps set the tone and shares responsibility. Look out for each other, welcome new riders and help them find the next stop, leave it better than you found it, give people space when they need it, and help keep the ride moving forward together by practicing Consent, Accountability, Respect, and De-escalation at all times. Stay behind the ride leader and don’t forget to thank a corker! 📍 Salmon Street Springs, every Thursday, rain or shine. 🕖 Meet at 7:00, announcements after 7:30, leave after “Beer Minutes.” 🕢 If you’re not at the fountain by 7:30, you may want to meet us at the next stop. 🧭 Ride Tracker: https://thursdaynightride.com/tracker https://ridewithgps.com/users/1303039/live_log

Thursday Night Ride

⛲️ If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to get involved, come early and ask for the ride leader—we’ll see you at the fountain!

*Updated by Shift on Sept 16th at 10:50am: this ride is not associated with the original Thursday Night Ride* Come meet some people, make some friends, explore the city, and spend a few hours riding bikes with a bunch of strangers who probably won’t be strangers by the end. Casual pace. Fun routes. Good stops. No need to be fast or fancy — just bring a bike, some lights, and yourself. Come alone. Bring a friend. Bring five friends. It’s Thursday night. Let’s ride bikes.

Thursday nights. Hard start at 8:05 PM. It's almost the weekend, so let's ride bikes. We roll from and return to Columbia Park (meet in front of the pool) for an hour-ish ramble through North Portland and beyond. No agenda beyond riding bikes with good people. Expect roughly 10 miles at a conversation-friendly pace (~10 mph). We usually have a brief rest stop along the way for snacks, stretching, high fives, admiring a weird tree, taking in a panoramic view, or whatever else seems important at the time. This is a no-drop ride. Basket bikes, ATBs, all-road bikes, cruisers, "gravel" bikes, fancy bikes, old bikes, rusty bikes, whatever. If your bike can comfortably cruise at ~10 mph for an hour, it’ll be fine. Bring:
-Front and rear lights (required)
-Snacks if you'd like
-water or optional beverage, maximum vibes (no store stop). And, an extra bike tube wouldn't hurt! Remember, wherever we end up along the way, we always practice Leave No Trace! Meet: 7:45 PM
. Roll: 8:05 PM sharp
. Start & Finish: Columbia Park, in front of the pool. Come meet your neighbors and see what North Portland looks like after dark. Pre-game meetup last Thur of each month: 7/30 (6pm at Chill & Fill), 8/27 (Chill & Fill, N Lombard), 9/24 (TBD), 10/29 (TBD).

Milwaukie Sustainability Fair

Community led ride - many folks now know the route and different folks can point the way each week! There are three meeting points: 1. SE Clinton St/41st Ave at 10 am (ride at 10:05) 2. SE Clinton St/26 Ave at 10:10 am (ride at 10:15) 3. Tilikum Bridge at (former) PDX Opera ~10:25 am; leaving from Tilikum location ~10:30 am 4. Arrive at PSU Market ~11 am Ride is on every Saturday the market is open (year round except weekend between Christmas and New Year). We will make every effort to note weather-related closures here promptly.

We have a 34 mile route that takes you into the heart of suburbia! With the option of using public transit and taking the MAX to Beaverton Transit Center that is where our ride will begin and end. We will have a lunch stop once we arrive in Sherwood. We like to zip around the area but we are focused on showing off the scenery and socializing. So it will be fast but only on straight flat stuff and we will wait for you. Roughly 1,400+ of climbing and most of that is in the first 5 or so miles of the ride. Hope to see you there and show off some of the state!

We'll ride about 5 miles together from the Vera Katz statue (just north of the Hawthorne Bridge) on the Eastbank Esplanade to Hail Snail (vegan cinnamon roll shop) for the Flip Side Vegan Market. Bring $ for vendors! The market is 12pm-5pm. There’s a MAX stop across the street from the market.

It's a little later this year, but it's back! For this ride, the theme is simple — come dressed like your bike (or skates, or whatever your wheels are)! Come in a color-matching outfit, add tassels to match the ones on your handlebars,...whatever matches the vibe of your conveyance! Don't have a matching outfit? No worries—come as you are. We'd love to have ya. <3 This ride follows the Shift2Bikes code of conduct. Don't be a jerk. Be kind and watch out for one another. If you're banned on other rides, you're banned here, too.

Join us on a ride on my 64th Birthday Weekend to ALL THE WILDWOOD CROWS AND AS MANY SASQAUTCH AS WE CAN FIND NEARBY.

Meet up kenilworth park 3:30. Ride out at 3:45 to meet the flute Ride at piccolo park. Please bring your flute, your piccolo. Any other wood wind instruments patch kit spare tube sense of wonderment, and the ability to enjoy jamming, and sharing space

Roll out roughly 4:30 PM ​Join us for a ride to ground yourself back to mother earth and connect with the shared air we breathe. ​Along the way, we’ll take part in a short "Wind Salutation"—a unique four-directions ceremony designed to center the group. It will be a small, low-pressure element of the ride, but likely a bit different than any you’ve experienced before. (Pro-tip: Leave the compass at home!) ​The Route & Stops: We will pause at three distinct locations along the route. One of our stops will be high above the river on the Tilikum Crossing—taking advantage of its zero-automobile traffic and open air space—while the other two stops will remain a secret until we roll up. ​Ride Vibe & Etiquette: ​Acoustic Focus: Please do not troll the ride with electric motorcycles or blast high-decibel EDM. Standard e-bikes are completely welcome. ​Music & Sound: Bluetooth speakers are fine during the ride (bonus points for underground flute jazz or flute salsa!), but we ask everyone to turn all speakers completely off during the Wind Salutation so we can align with our breath and instruments. ​Everyone Welcome: Kid-friendly, family-friendly, and 21+ friendly. Just come ready to respect the space, the air, and your fellow riders.

Calling all Holga users and photographers who appreciate the joy of lo-fi toy cameras! Join us for a lovely cruise around Portland. This approx. 9 mile ride will give us plenty of opportunities to break out our light-tight boxes and capture dreamy images of various photogenic locations.

There will be a handful to check out and use along w/film for purchase, courtesy of Blue Moon Camera. Get to Peninsula Park early if you want to use one, as the supply is limited. And there will be an opportunity for post-ride food and libations for those who want to stick around.

The movie "A Simple Machine" was filmed entirely in the Portland area and is having a showing at Cinema 21. An earlier showing at the Hollywood Theatre sold out quickly, so get your tickets soon! This 4.5-mile group ride goes by some of the filming locations in the movie before arriving at Cinema 21 for the showing. The movie's director Mark Alan Hoffman will be with us, and he will explain the locations and take questions at each stop on the ride. This will be a "party pace" ride at about 8 MPH to accommodate everyone. And everyone is welcome on the ride even if you do not have a ticket for this showing. Starring Richard Blackmon in a breakout lead role, "A Simple Machine" follows Nick Allander as he tries to figure out his life’s direction during the late stages of the pandemic. A recent college grad, he makes a series of radically frugal lifestyle choices and goes off-grid to get out of debt. He’s unable to let his girlfriend-practically-fiancée in on his plans, forcing a difficult choice between a simple life on his bike or committing to the woman he loves.

Sort of like the other MMR, except in the middle of the day, and on a Monday.

It's a really pretty bike ride to the PDX Airport. And from inner NE Portland it's about the same travel time on a bicycle as in a car. There's no particular reason why anyone who likes to ride a bike should drive to the airport if you're just going somewhere for a week and carrying light luggage. So, let's do it for fun. To get to know the route, learn the couple tricky turns between 72nd and Alberta and the airport itself. Learn the two bike parking areas, consider what type of bike and lock to bring if you're parking for a week. I'll be flying away from the airport, so everyone else can either take MAX back or retrace steps as a group. Or you can join me and come to Utah ;^)

Welcome to Mellow Mondays 2026. Are you interested in leading a ride? This is a supportive and organized way to lead for the first time. Every week there’s different themes but there are constants…. Slow pace, about 8 mph, Distance varies but approx 10 miles, Family friendly, We practice consent and non-violence on all our rides, Store stop for safe clean bathroom access but generally we try and make these stops short, Skater friendly (but please check with ride leader about crunchy or potential issues for skates), ALL Wheels friendly (scooter, skates, skateboard, e bikes etc), Ride is always a loop, Corking and traffic intersections are calm. Be mindful of smoking around others and do not smoke around children. FAQ, Can I bring a speaker? Yes but please speak to the ride leader and play the music they’ve carefully selected or what their preference is. Can I lead a ride? Yes, please attend a few first and get a feel for how the rides are. I’ve heard NakedHearts supports other rides? Yes, we can help with planning, encouragement, promotion, sound support and what not. What do you mean you practice consent? We ask everyone (even friends, relatives, husbands and wives with each other) to ask for permission before touching anyone else or their belongings and when asking to seek listen and empower ‘No’. What do you mean you practice Non-violence? We specifically expect everyone to be calm, kind and respectful with all car interactions. One riders aggression to a car driver can put everyone else at risk. We live in a small city and are bound to encounter the same drivers again. Are all your rides a protest? Yes, being together with respect and acceptance and finding comfort and joy around others and strangers is an act of protest against the divisive paradigm we are in.

Portland's Underground Cargo & Utility Bike Racing Event returns for its FIFTH YEAR - Carry Sh*t Olympics is a weekend-long series of competitive events which includes: a 24 hour scavenger hunt (for any and all types of bikes), a Friday Night Ride with fun mini-games, cargo polo (bike polo but there's 2 people on a bike), and a closed-course circuit race for bikes made for hauling! THE 24 SCAVENGER HUNT: START: Friday 9/25, 7PM ENDS: Saturday, 9/26, 7PM HOWS IT WORK? Meet at the Abernathy Elementary gazebo at 7PM on Friday. Hunters will receive a manifest and have until 7PM on Saturday to complete as many tasks as possible. The manifest's checklist will include visiting locations, gathering items, and specific tasks to complete. Some tasks will, of course, involve carrying cargo. You do not necessarily NEED a lot of cargo space, but you should expect to either carry a lot of stuff or ride a lot of miles, or a mixture of both. Previous 1st place winners of The Hunt have completed the event on both brakeless fixed gear and also full size e-cargo bikes. Open to any and all types of bikes and skill levels, but winning The Hunt is reserved only for those most worthy and steadfast Olympians. Collaboration between racers is allowed, but this is an individual event so all racers must complete their own manifest and carry their own cargo. WHAT CAN I RIDE? The Scavenger Hunt is intended to be "doable" (with the right attitude) on a wide variety of self-propelled wheeled devices. Race against other people with the same kind of rig as you. Choose from the following categories at registration: - Rack & Bag (for “normal” bikes) - Compact Cargo (midtails, cycle trucks, small trailers), - Full Size (large cargos, long johns, big trailers), - Adaptive (hand cycle, recumbent, quad-cycle, etc), - Open (skates, longboard, shopping cart, any other weird wheels). (eBikes with a regulated speed cap of up to 28mph are welcome but will incur a points deduction) WHAT SHOULD I BRING?? Bring your race rig, a lock, a means to carry or secure your cargo, a flat tire repair kit, a phone capable of taking photos and/or recording a ride track, a good attitude and a thirst for glory. As with previous years, there is NO FIRST AID OR MECHANICAL SUPPORT, meaning you are expected to be self-sufficient for the entirety of the 24 hour race. (Plz don't sue me, I have nothing <3) C.S.O. V continues all weekend-long with a Friday Night Ride Takeover (Ladds Circle at 8pm), and Sunday's events which include CARGO POLO and a CARGO CIRCUIT RACE!! Follow @csopdx on IG for more info!!

Bring lights/locks/responsible vibes/a cup/ Casual pace with some extra zip 10-20ish mile rides with store stops/park stops/art stops NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Be careful of slippery roads/leafs on ground/pot holes. Call out road hazards to help bike friends stay safe. 2nd Fridays are MMR - later night vibes to make it to Midnight Mystery Ride. If you want to lead a ride just ask! REPEAT… NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Guest ride leaders wanted and appreciated! Instagram @fridaynightride

We’ve endorsed a slate of District 3 and 4 candidates for the November election, and this is how we spread the word about these pro-animal champions. This is one of the most impactful things you can do to help these candidates win and help us pass more animal protections! We’ll meet at Ladd’s Circle at 10am, divide into small groups, distribute materials, divvy up the turf and then hit the pavement. We’ll be covering District 3 (SE Portland) and District 4 (West Portland and Sellwood). We’ll have all the materials you need, including snacks and water! Bring a friend, or two! See you there!

**Registering a team? SIGN UP HERE: https://smvmt.us/modateam** **Want email updates? RSVP HERE: https://smvmt.us/modasignup** In December, Portland City Council plans to reach an agreement with new billionaire-Blazers owner Tom Dundon in order to renovate the Moda Center. The expected deal will cost Portland and Oregon taxpayers over $800 million over 20 years with no private money coming from Dundon. Because billionaire Dundon is threatening to move the Portland Trail Blazers out of our city, politicians are moving quickly to give away hundreds of millions of dollars with nothing in return. But the Blazers are our team, and we also deserve a city with functioning schools, parks, and roads. As Trail Blazers fans and taxpayers, we deserve a fair deal that keeps the Blazers in Portland and doesn't bankrupt our city. On Saturday, September 26th, we're hosting the Moda Center 500: a bike relay and parade celebrating the team we love and calling out billionaire extortionists. We're bringing together Blazers fans, students, teachers, union leaders, and city council candidates together to demand Tom Dundon pay his fair share of the Moda Center renovation, and declare our public subsidies require public returns not blank checks. If Portland City Council cannot make a fair deal for Portlanders by December, they must delay their agreement until we have a proposal that doesn't shutter schools nor close parks, but actually lets our city thrive. Join us at the Moda Center on Saturday, September 26th at noon for speeches from community organizations, unions, and city council candidates. The bike race/relay/parade will begin at 1pm.

It's a full moon! Let's ride naked. Except, let's do it in daylight! September is still nice weather, but it can be cold at night! So we'll enjoy the warm orb of the sun, and provide our own moons to dress up Portland' streets. This is a "bare as you dare" ride. Clothing welcome, nudity welcome. A quiet protest against oil wars, fossil fuel dependence, and car dominance. We'll roll from Coe Circle, and loop back about 2 hours later. We'll visit all five quadrants of the city, shout pro-bicycle slogans, and possibly visit ODOT's Portland Headquarters for a short, symbolic protest against freeway widening. Let's enjoy and make use of the civil liberties we have had to peaceably assemble to seek redress of grievances. Enshrined in the 1793 US Bill of Rights, and many place before and since. (Past Tire and crew have been leading small naked rides for 17 years. We periodically vary the date and theme -- this is our first "full moon daytime ride!")

See "Amendment I"

A monthly social bicycle pilgrimage through the glowing corners of the city. We’ll ride together between gathering places, hidden patios, strange landmarks, and friendly neighborhood spots while chasing the mysterious forces that connect us all. Expect music, lights, conversation, oddities, and a few surprises along the way. This is a relaxed NO-DROP social ride with regroup points throughout. Routes are usually 10-20 miles total with stops to hang, hydrate, and soak in the vibes. New riders always welcome. Costumes, bike decorations, bells, and mildly cult-like enthusiasm encourages. Starting point: The BeerMongers 2415 SE 11th Ave, Portland OR 97214

Our favorite boba eyed, snack scrounging, Cycle Cats (dog) adventurer is turning 10. In celebration, we have a moderate paced, no drop, mixed terrain route planned with a stop at Mud Bay. She wants treats, all the treats, but remember this little chi-beast is allergic to chicken. Happy Barkday Mags!

The music from my ancient iPod classic has been recovered and I want to share all the HP fandom music from when I was in high school circa 2009. Featuring music from Harry and the Potters, Ministry of Magic, The Moaning Myrtles, Draco and the Malfoys, and many more wizard wrock bands! It's an 8 mile ride with a park stop. Store stop upon request. Rules 1. Don't yuck my yum. 2. Don't play your own music. 3. If you're banned on weekly rides you're banned here too.

It’s a Nic Cage themed ride. Dress as your favorite Nicholas Cage character… Wear a Nic Cage mask… Nic Cage impressions stops.. That’s right, be all you can Nic Cage Bee, Karaoke, a few spaces for people to sing their Nic Cage wild hearts out (Dude loves some Elvis),, Nic Cage Karate dancing, one song chances at the stops too get your Elvis meets Nic Cage Meets Chuck Norris Dance moves out of your system, Can you do the alphabet in full Nic Cage style? Can you do a mass Nic Cage off against other Nic Cages and go full ballistic absurdity, The one thing there’s no shortage of on this ride is Nic Cage stuff. Route will be easy with no surprises. Expect to See Nic Cages face along the route and jingle your bells and yell at the top of your lungs each time you see a picture ‘THE BEES, THE BEES, NOT MY EYES,’ Since this ride first rolled in 2021 Nic Cage has been in about 38 and 76 movies….purchased random items that sound like props from The X Files, drank more and done more drugs than the average herd of cattle, worn through various lizard and snake clothing items, been kicked out of more places than the Opera Ride, and continued to be one of the most iconic and capable actors of the last 40 years…… Music…will be Nic Cage inspired from his movies…. BYOB….Bring your own Bees
