Join us for the fifth (maybe?) Pedalpalooza Portland Boring Portland, a brisk ride down to the Springwater, out to Boring, and back for about 39 miles. In the sprit of its French namesake, food is a ride feature. We'll start near a French bakery, end near a coffee shop, and hit a few food spots along the way. We'll have multiple gather spots along the way for people to catch up. All are welcome. If you're an ancien or ancienne (that's a Paris-Brest-Paris finisher), bring your jersey, rando bike, PBP signage, or stories. Any style of human powered bike is welcome, though randonneuring is the style of the day. Please bring tools to fix a flat or any other sort of mechanical that may happen. Pay attention to the forecast, and ensure you are prepared for the distance and weather. Paris Brest Paris is the oldest recurring organized bike ride in the world, having started in 1891 as an audacious 1200km physical challenge with cash prizes. Bicycles were high tech, and endurance events were the rage. PBP is now held as an amateur event every 4 years. 2027 is the next PBP year.

Rawr! Of course she's a Leo. Our girl Grocery Outlet is turning 80 on Saturday, August 15th! And hey--it's my birthday, too, so let's party! Join me for a fun and slow ride to the SE 72nd & Flavel Grocery Outlet while we rock out to some of your favorite grocery store bangers. Our playlist features songs from the Supremes to Tears for Fears to Des'ree -- what year is it?? Who knows! Time is meaningless in the cereal aisle. BONUS: My girlfriend's Sicilian pizzeria and bakery, @eatmypiepizzeria, will have a special popup at Gross Out so bring an appetite for the world's best cinnamon rolls, cannoli, pizza, savory or sweet galettes (or both!), etc. We'll bop over to Brentwood Park to eat pastries or stuff you've grabbed inside G.O. and then head back to the start. Come early with your coffee! We're starting at the 8/15 @pdxcoffeeoutside location. Coffee Outside starts at 9am: "Bring coffee / brew kit or 🍩 to trade for ☕️!"

Route (11 miles)

We’ll meet at Doe Donuts where you can get some vegan donuts, ice cream, or beverages. Ride leader will get some donuts to share. The ride will be 5-6 miles with a stop at Coe Circle before ending back at Doe Donuts for post-ride refreshments. We’ll bring some small aloe plants to share. We can play a little tic-tac-toe.

Mosaic is an ancient artform made by placing tiny pieces into a mortar on a surface and sealing them together to create a pleasing image. These fragments, called tesserae, can be made of tile, glass, stone, discarded shards of pottery - WHATEVER the maker has on hand. This art form lends itself well both to giant public murals and intimate, decorative arts. Production is simply a matter of laying varying colours and shapes next to each other over and over till they come to represent a pattern or a picture, a whole. As such, mosaic art lends itself beautifully to metaphor: WE are all the tiny, varied, broken pieces it takes to come together and build a COMMUNITY. Our experiences (good and bad!) are the wild, sparkling, tesserae it takes to pattern a life. When we pick up the fragmented chunks of our broken hearts and lay them next to the joys and the dramas, we curate something entirely new; everyday we are making Art simply by choosing to live. Join me on a ten-ish mile tour to appreciate some of the fanciful tile art sprinkled around Portland. We’ll also gander at some fine examples of Mosaic’s translucent cousin, Stained Glass. AND THEN join TOGETHER as we attempt to create a collaborative mosaic of our own at the end spot! This is going to work exactly as well as it can - in much the same way that the community of Portland is exactly what we make of it. For this, I have a simple, silly ask: bring along a colourful ceramic item (or glass! Or stone!). This can be a cursed piece of pottery, or that mug you broke in 2021 and never learned how to kintsugi back together… or something you found in a free pile yesterday and magpied even though you didn’t have a plan for it quite yet. I'll bring a board, some tools, cement, and a vague plan. If it works, I'll install this work at a later date at a friend's property on a bikeway, and Future You can bike by and point out to your friends how this one time, on this one ride, you made Art with a bunch of (former) strangers and you should probably do that more often…

@LadyMercer

We’ll be riding from Beaverton Central up over the hill to Providence Park to watch Portland Thorns Football Club (women’s soccer!) as they take on the Orlando Pride. It is also a night in the stadium to celebrate longtime Thorns and U.S. Women’s National Team legend Meghan Klingenberg. All are welcome, but we note that the route does have some non-trivial climbing. We can do it together! If you don’t want to try the climb, you could take MAX to the Zoo station and meet us at the top of the hill (at approx. ~4:45), but be aware that MAX trains can get pretty crowded before and after Thorns matches. There is ample bike parking that gets set up at the stadium on match days. Want to join us? Come ride just for the fun of it. A ticket is required for entry to the match; it is not included with the ride, but if you’d like to sit with us to watch the match, we’ll be in the open seating General Attendance (GA) section. It’s a relatively inexpensive ticket.

Ride Westside

Roll to the races with us! 🚲 Join Portland Design Works, The Athletic Community and Cycle Oregon on Saturday, August 15 for a ride to the Portland Criterium. We will gather at the Salmon Street Springs fountain, ride a leisurely loop around the waterfront to the North Park Blocks, where we will ride the car-free Portland Criterium course for half an hour. After our laps, stick around to grab a spot on the barriers and watch the elite racers fly by in one of the most exciting spectator events of the summer. Bring the whole family and don't miss your chance to ride on the Portland Criterium course for free!

Back for its 16th year, Get Lost! is a Pedalpalooza Bike Ride led entirely by chance. Dice are rolled to determine how many blocks to ride, and which direction to turn once we get there (odd total = R, even =L). In the 16+ years we’ve had kid units but have never had a Family Friendly edition - that changes now with the 1st Family Edition ride in Ladd’s Addition. We ride until we find a natural end point. Feel free to bail whenever you wanna go somewhere else. You never know what to expect. Since we won't be taking designated bike routes riders should be pretty comfortable in semi-hairy conditions, but dangerous or illegal routes will not be traveled. Probably not a loop, but that's what we said the first year, and we (eerily) ended up in the exact place we started! Read about that year's ride here: http://bit.ly/2qY2TmQ

On this ride we'll learn a basic samba no pé step--the dance of Brazilian Carnaval--and ride to the free Bloco Alegria concert in Sellwood Park. Bring samba music and Rio vibes. Dance along to a 2 hour set featuring music and dancers from one of Portland's premier samba bands! No partner necessary; samba no pé is not a partner dance. Bring food/drinks, comfortable footwear, a blanket or low chair to sit on during dance breaks and bike lights for the ride back if you're staying for the entire concert. Ride is a loop, but you're welcome to leave early at any time. 7-8 mile round trip mostly flat with a couple of hills. Mostly on bike paths and neighborhood greenways, but includes brief sections on Johnson Creek Blvd and on sidewalk/gravel. Sellwood Park has dirt paths. Bring a lock and lock your bike to itself if no rack space is available. Corking is not to be expected, but it will be a no-drop ride with regrouping after intersections and hills if the group gets split up. You are responsible for your own safety and the ride leader assumes no liability. Supervised kids who can keep up with casually paced adults are OK. We follow the Shift Code of Conduct. Check Shift Calendar the day of the event as Portland Parks and Rec may cancel concerts in cases of severe heat or weather. Samba video for beginners: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exhSEIia6vk&list=PLaWMrsgLyUdHQCgm3C6IYaErKt8h1VfxU&index=2

Bring Your Own Bubbles, pickles are on us. Let's roll through the neighborhood spreading whimsy and joy. This ride will have a designated leader and sweeper (person at the back of the group), and maintain a pace of 8-miles/hour. All Bodies on Bikes believes all bodies are good bodies, all bikes are good bikes, and all rides deserve to be celebrated (especially ones with bubbles and pickles).

These are our neighbors and we see them all the time so please be courteous and friendly, try and stay at least 4 ft from their bumper if corking. If you’re a banned rider you’re banned here too.

Join us for this year's first DiscGo ride, where we play disc golf in parks, listen to some disco and disco adjacent music, and enjoy each others company. Feel free to bring your own disc, or borrow one of ours. No prior disc golf experience necessary, this is a no drop ride. Since this is an evening ride, expect to light up our discs for some extra fun!

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.

Are you new to town, or new to gravel biking? Want to explore one of the best off-road paths in the city? Then join our New to Portland Intro to Gravel ride on Tuesday, August 18 from 5-8 p.m.! The ride: We will gather at Cyclepath PDX (2714 NW Thurman St) at 5:00 p.m. and head out promptly at 5:30 p.m. Cyclepath PDX will provide a shuttle to the top of the Leif Erikson trail. The group will ride back to the shop on Thurman Street along Leif Erikson trail. Leif Erikson is a double-track gravel roadbed open to bikes but not cars. The total length of the ride will be 11.5 miles. Who this is for: Everyone! The ride is designed with beginners in mind, so no off-road experience is necessary. This is a great place to see what the off-road hype is all about and make some friends all while enjoying a pleasant, light ride. The gear: Please come prepared with an off-road ready bike in safe, working condition. This means the tires are a little wider (we recommend a minimum of 32mm wide), ideally you've got some gears, and suspension (shocks) are useful but not required. Be sure to bring a helmet, water bottle, snacks, fanny pack or bike bag, and weather-specific clothing that can get sweaty. The plan: We will gather at Cyclepath West bike shop at 5 p.m. and head out on the shuttle by 5:30 p.m. Afterwards, join us for a hang session including light snacks and good company. RSVP: This event is free but space is limited. RSVP here to join the ride: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/new-to-portland-ride-intro-to-gravel-tickets-1989265982102?aff=oddtdtcreator Please promptly cancel if it turns out that you cannot attend so we can make sure someone else can grab your spot.

We meet up every other Tuesday. We ride in the Southeast Portland we have food carts and a beer tent at the start of the ride. And we go somewhere and generally have a fire. As a great close-knit ride open to you . i promise to make you dance like idot and celebrate your night.So be kind to all travlers , bring your friends, and optimism.

This band has been my personal go to band during the happiest times and darkest times of my life. Their absurdity and pathos and deep, deep musical humor has shaped me as a person. Some people know this band for their Rock n Roll, their kids music, their TV themes, their Polka, their featuring in a mass of movies…..if you’re not familiar you can expect a journey of fun and understanding of that human condition. This is an exceptionally family and sensitive person friendly ride….in their decades of music and 20 or so albums there isn’t a single curse word or female derogatory term. At this point NakedHearts has lead around 350-400+ rides and been involved in supporting at least 100 others, that’s to say you’d think we’d be ok with being vulnerable but this band who I love hardly ever shows up on any playlist because it’s too personal, too close to my own heart and I’ve been too shy. But given the realization of how small I’ve made myself due to ongoing harassment I’ve decided to rip the band aid off. Haters are gonna hate. We practice consent and non-violence on all our rides. If you’re banned on other rides or from listing a ride you’re banned here too. If you can’t respect others body autonomy please don’t attend.

Do you like Bavarian soft pretzels? Do you like to snack on said pretzels while riding bikes? Well then! Have I got the ride for you! We will ride to a few locations that have choice pretzels, stop and snack, then ride some more! Warning: Gluten lovers only!

It's been a long Summer, so why not a day at Rooster Rock State Park! Located in the Gorge, Rooster has an excellent disk golf course, bathroom facilities, many trails and full beach access. The eastern beach is the largest clothing optional beach in the pacific northwest with a very swimmable lagoon to the sandbar. We meet at Laurelhurst park, West end of the lake, wheels down at 10:30. There will be a grocery store stop there, dinner stop on return. The 17 mile ride east is mostly flat, but the last 8 miles is on the shoulder of 84. Be prepared for amazing views! Though fairly safe and Legal, there will be noise and debris. We will have a designated location to meet for the sunset return ride. If you are uncomfortable with nudity, stay on the western beach, up top or stay home. Bring beach supplies, snacks, money for food, water bottles, cable locks and anything else you think is important. Volunteers welcome with auto support, park fee applies for auto vehicles only. This will be a comfortable yet brisk pace, no drop, with a stop in Troutdale. Adult themed, no body shaming, everyone welcomed except creeps who will get booted. If you are banned on other rides, you are banned here.

Nomad’s monthly ride is evolving. What started as an e-bike ride is becoming an all-bikes-welcome community ride, starting from our new waterfront Adaptive BIKETOWN location. E-bikes are still very much welcome, but this ride is about accessible, joyful, low-pressure cycling for everybody: e-bikes, adaptive bikes, trikes, handcycles, cargo bikes, analog bikes, and anyone who wants to ride at a pace that allows for chatting with fellow cyclists and taking in the beauty of Portland. We ride at a social pace, we stay together, and nobody gets left behind. This isn’t a race, a training ride, or a contest of fitness. These rides are about building the kind of bike culture we want to see more of: welcoming, accessible, practical, joyful, and connected. Whether you ride every day or haven’t joined a group ride before, you are welcome here! All Wheels Welcome rides will be loops that start and end at the Adaptive Biketown Location just north of OMSI along the Eastbank Esplande path - look for the big red shed with Biketown parking in front. The ride will be a relaxed pace with minimal elevation but when we do encounter slight inclines, we will slow down enough to stay together as a group. We'll pass by interesting sights and maybe make a stop or two to take in the sights!

:: Original Date Wed 7/23 rescheduled due to AQI forecast and heat :: Spread your wings and prepare to bike - you will become a butterfly! It's not just a sweet sweet fantasy baby, we're celebrating Mariah on this leisure-paced ride (we'll try not to get OOC). Route Map link below: Expect an ~1.5 hr joy ride of ~9 miles, with a dance break stop at the 3 mile mark in the middle to shake it off at the Salmon Street Springs Fountain and enjoy refreshments (bring your own - there is no store stop.) * We will be taking some major streets - this ride is NOT a loop.

Got a big speaker? Bring it! How else can we get you feeling emotions? (higher than the heavens above.) We'll be sporting a large speaker, but we encourage everyone to bring their own music box so we can bounce to Mariah's incredible voice. (Link to a playlist below.) Not a fan of Spotify, but the service does offer a convenient way to link our speakers in a "Jam." I'll be utilizing this feature to link speakers if folks would like to. Not syncing with the Jam? All I ask is that you limit the music to Mariah Carey only, and that you turn down your music when it conflicts with a louder speaker (you can turn it back up when it doesn't.) Join us - we belong together! BANNED RIDERS: If you are banned from any rides, you are also banned from this ride.

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

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:

And when you seen the cones along the route, call em out! It's as silly--and as fun--as it sounds like, and we can't wait to run this ride for the third year.

Sweet dreams are made of ... this ride. Hopefully neither walking nor riding on broken glass. Here comes the rain again, but bike summer ain't over yet. So let's ride to feel like we're seventeen again. Who's that girl leading the ride? Actually, it's Lois with the Cat Ears *and* Em. But please don't zoom up right by our side -- stay behind the ride leaders at all times, except when corking. There will not be a store stop. There will be a dance break. Which is much more fun. Casual pace. All wheels, all bodies, all bikes welcome. But if you're banned elsewhere, then you hurt me and I hate you.

Friday night ride is a social ride for people who enjoy a sporty pace and adventurous routes. Every ride is different but generally range between 15 and 25 miles and you can expect some climbing and higher speeds than your average pedalpalooza ride. NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE. Riders should be self sufficient and have a plan for getting themselves home. This is a bicycle-forward group ride. Pedal-assist ebikes are ok (class 1 & 2). Throttle heavy, high speed battery powered motor bikes are not (class 3 & 4). If you're not pedaling it’s not a bicycle and you will asked to leave. 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

The most fun naked ride we host. This ride needs people clothed so as we startle and surprise passers by it looks like the Zombies are chasing people. Costumes? Yes. Fake blood and oats makes great gore. Come as a Zombie apocalypse warrior survivor (no actual weapons)… Some people gradually turn into Zombies during the ride. Bandages and hospital smocks…. Theme: The World of the Dead zombie ride, embraces the vision of Zombie movie legend director George A Romero and is a stance against unbridled consumerism and group think. So ironically buy a bunch of fake blood and wander the roads in a Zombie horde yelling ‘Brains’ at passerby. We purposely Zombie Flash Mob and surprise large groups of people. It’s an amazingly liberating experience and transcends what zombies and horror and such and the gore and whilst looking your worst you are applauded and people wave hysterically happy to see us all…. This is my (Moorland) arguably favorite ride. The music is all from Zombie Movies and is intercut with the uncomfortable growls of the undead and movie dialogue…. As with all our rides, we practice consent and non-violence…. Please ask others for permission before eating any part of them.

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.

This ride will be a relatively short, casual paced ride for families looking to get out and spend some time with their kids using pedal power! The goal is to get more families into riding bicycles instead of driving everywhere, and showing families safe neighbourhood spots and paths in Washington County! The party will kick off at Central Park in Hillsboro at 10am, and the closest MAX stop is at Orenco, less than a mile south. We will depart at 11am and ride en masse to the Brookwood Library! The closest MAX at the end is going to be at Fairplex, about 1.5 miles south. The ride will be about 2 miles in a relatively flat neighbourhood, on quiet neighbourhood streets. All people and all wheels are welcome! Please be respectful of any children who come along, as the last thing we want to do is discourage them from cycling.

Wear PINK! Celebrate my 27 years on earth with a 27 mile bike ride throughout Portland. We'll visit significant locations from my life, bike around a bunch, take a break at Black Water Bar for lunch around 3pm (best veggie burger in Portland(and you could meet us there)) and end at the Sellwood docks where we'll transition to a normal-style beach birthday party. Bring sunscreen, snacks, water, and padded bike shorts so I feel less self conscious bout having to wear mine. Invite your friends and lovers and randos. The only requirement is that you are nice to be around and you're ready to be ridiculous.

Come learn about ADUs, tiny houses on wheels, and the small housing possibilities hiding in plain sight all over Portland. We’ll start at a custom ADU I built for a short, casual class on ADUs, middle housing, and what’s possible on a typical Portland lot. From there, we’ll hop on bikes and ride across town to check out a few real-life examples of ADUs and tiny houses on wheels. We’ll end at my current project: a 5,000-square-foot lot that will soon have two ADUs and a tiny house on wheels. I’ll walk you through the plan, what I’ve learned, what I’d do differently, and why I’m so excited about small-scale housing as a way to create more flexible, affordable, community-minded living options in Portland. This ride is also part of the launch of Small House Club PDX, a new community for people interested in ADUs, tiny homes, middle housing, creative land use, and making Portland a little more livable one small home at a time. Bring your questions, curiosity, love of bikes, and enthusiasm for small housing

Gather at the University of Portland to celebrate the Pilots' contributions to women's soccer. Depart at 3:30 and stop by Migration on Williams to meet up with folks at The Athletic to head to the match.

Let’s see how this goes! The featured image shows how we plan to rig your bike while you sit and sing (manual bikes only)! Speaker will sit between you and your bike. DM me on IG to choose a song now! Please note I have 3 guidelines to help you choose a song and to maximize fun for everyone. Songs must follow *at least 2* of the guidelines below: 1. Less than 4 minutes 2. Upbeat 3. Something most people know (ie if your song is more than 4 minutes, it must be upbeat and something most people know. Make sense?) We will be on a mostly flat route bopping around a few parks in N Portland. We will stop at each park for a few songs. Refresh for more updates on how this whole thing will work 🎤🎵

Welcome to the fourth annual Space Cat ride! The Space Cat Bike Ride is a chill event where riders can come as they are or dress up in out of this world space cat themed costumes, (completely optional). Tranquil synth music playlist. Perfect for all skill levels, this ride blends creativity and community. It’s a chill slight downhill cruise most of the way. We’re just meeting and leaving from the base of Tabor, not going up it. Ride is not a loop. Https://www.instagram.com/lyra__/

Sequins are forever and soon we'll know the life of a showgirl, babe. The 2nd annual Taylor Swift Bike Ride is upon us with a new player in the game, The Life of a Showgirl! To make it even more interesting, the playlist this year will mainly feature songs by the legendary co-writers and producers, Max Martin and Shellback...aka bangers from 1989, reputation, The Life of a Showgirl and a little bit of Red. Because it'll be August, we'll also be playing some folklore AND Cruel Summer (because no ride is complete without it). Wear all of the glitter and sparkles or best Eras Tour outfit and make the friendship bracelets to bring and trade with fellow Swifties. This ride will be party-paced (...slow) and no-drop. We'll meet at Colonel Summers (at the picnic tables on Taylor St side) at 6:30pm and ride around 7pm. Potential dance stop and route tbd :).
