2018 Pedalpalooza calendar

Bike Tag works like this: Anyone who can access biketag.org to post photos can play. 1) Any player begins the game by finding the “mystery location” picture posted on BikeTag.org. 2) Next they must prove that they found the mystery location by taking a “proof photo” at the same location. 3) Then they must ride to a new “mystery location” and both post a picture of that new location along with the proof photo. 4) The game moves to another round as soon as a new player is able to find the new mystery location. This game runs all month long! At the end of the month there is a group ride to some of the best mystery tag locations, and prizes will be given for some things we haven’t quite decided yet... See biketag.org for more tips and full rules. Tag!

Come have donuts with the PDX Cargo Bike Gang! This is a meet-up, NOT A RIDE. We won't charge you anything, but Blue Star won't be giving donuts away for free so bring $$.

Returning for a second year! This ride celebrates and promotes the concept that cycling is for everyone. Whether you are a person with a physical or intellectual disability, someone with an interest in different bicycle types, someone who benefits from cycling with an adaptive bike, or a friend and advocate of adaptive cycling, you are welcome on this ride. This ride is for all individuals, all ages, and all bicycle types. Ride will be about 6 miles, at a casual no-drop pace set by ride participants. Not a loop, but the end point will be within 1 mile of the starting point. We'll finish up in time to catch Grilled by Bike and the Wedding Ride in Ladd Circle. If you would like to ride but don't have your own bike, check out the Adaptive Biketown rental program! If you are renting a bike, reservations are strongly recommended.

The veil between the Fae folk and the more mundane sort is thinnest in Portland, especially during Pedalpalooza. Meet at 2 for sparkling and wing-donning, and ride at 2:30 or so. We'll visit some of our favorite magic places, those tucked into trees and parking strips, and those of the more structural sort. We will see fairies on the ride and see magic happen before us. The ride will be mostly flat, suitable for wee folk and languid larger ones as well.

This ride will roll to a trailhead, then dismount to hike a trail up to the top of one of Portland's peaks, where we'll hang to enjoy the view for a little bit before bombing the hill back in the saddle. Little to no cargo on bike makes hiking with it easier, and it makes for excellent upper body training. Parking bike at trailhead is a good way to lose your bike, and I don't usually hike in a loop. Taking my bike along allows me to just continue with rolling when done hiking, instead of having to hike back to a parking lot or trailhead.
