Join the Community Cycling Center to Kickoff Bike Summer! We'll start at the CCC, take the Going Greenway to let folks join up from the King Farmer's Market and continue on to the Bike Summer Pedalpalooza Kickoff Ride at Peninsula Park. Family Friendly, all ages and all skill levels welcome!

Ride bikes together with kids and families, from Colonel Summers Park to Peninsula Park for the start of Pedalpalooza’s Bike Summer Kick-Off ride! This is a moderate paced ride, slow enough for kids on bikes and parents on cargo bikes. We’ll ride 5 miles from the playground and splash pad in Colonel Summers park, to the Peninsula Park, which will be the start of the Pedalpalooza ride a half hour later at 3pm. Our leader is 9 year old Amalie (and her dad Perry)! We will ride at 1:15pm sharp and should arrive at Peninsula Park at about 2:30pm, so you have time pm to pick up t-shirts and pennants, while kids can use the playground or enjoy other activities. Then at 3pm you can also join us if you want to ride at the front of the whole route of the Kick-Off Ride , along with other families and kids. @pedalpaloozapdx has asked us to ride right up front! That ride will be 5 miles long and has several hills, so younger kids may need to switch to a trailer or cargo bike with a grown-up. The kickoff ride will take us through the Lloyd District, and back up down SE Portland to finish the loop. While our ride is 5 miles and and mostly flat and will be fine for grade schooler on their own bikes, if you do the whole loop along with the Kick-Off Ride it will be 10 miles total, so it would be appropriate for 4th grade plus, or younger kids who are strong fast confident riders, to ride their own bike the whole way. Our ride will be suitable for young bike riders who can pedal their own bike uphill in a straight line. Kids should wear a helmet, be able to ride in a straight line without training wheels, start and stop, and follow instructions. Cargo bikes, tandems, trailers and tag-a-longs are great for younger or less confident kids, or in case kids get tired of pedaling. Adults without kids can also join the ride as corkers to help with traffic safety. We’ll ride together as a group, rain or shine, because kids are traffic too!

Join BiciBuds leading with sound support from NakedHeartsPDX. We will be meeting up at the end spot for the Pedalpalooza Bike Summer Kickoff Ride. Theme: Summer Joy -- because it is the first Sunday in June and you still wanna keep the good vibes going after the kickoff ride. Costumes of any kind are absolutely welcome because it's the first day of Pedalpalooza and Bike Summer so why would we deny your creativity. Merges and collabs are welcome, just reach out. Rolling out around 7-ish from Colonel Summers Park and then looping back to Colonel Parks closer to 9pm for anyone that wants to join the ride later. Chill party pace, 7-9 mph. We have a DJ for our end spot because even though the next day is Monday, it's also summer season in Portland and joy is something we all need to experience during these times. This ride is NOT a loop. Safety: This ride intends to be a safe space. SHIFT Code of Conduct is important and implemented on these rides. No harassment, violence, racism, bigotry, transphobia, threats, or other actions that go against the SHIFT Code of Conduct will be accepted.

Join us for a loop ride centering genital autonomy, community care, and justice for all bodies! This ride raises awareness about Hadachek v. Oregon, a groundbreaking legal effort to expand Oregon’s child genital cutting protections to all children, including children assigned male at birth, from harmful circumcision and intersex normalization surgeries. We ride in solidarity with those impacted by genital cutting, especially trans, intersex, and gender-diverse (TIGD) folks, who are affected in unique and often overlooked ways. Allies are welcome! This is a no-drop, casual-paced ride with space for connection, visibility, and resistance on wheels. ✨ Bring: Bring your intactivist, bodily autonomy, or any apparel for a cause and your radical self! 🚲 Route: The route is a loop around North Portland through Peninsula Crossing Trail and by many parks! 🛑 Meeting & Ending location: McCoy Park, 4677 N Trenton St, Portland, OR 97203 🚉 Transit: N Trenton & Newman, Stop ID: 12727 ♿ Accessibility: Restrooms along route, and meeting location.

Katie's birthday, just like every other day. This will be my 7th birthday bike ride during Pedalpalooza. I’ll bring some vegan snacks to share, and you can do the same if you feel like it. There will be party favors and games. I’ve also got high hopes for some frisbee throwing. We'll end somewhere inner east side.

Our instagram is nakedHeartspdx so you can see how we ride. Weekly themed rides. Different ride leaders each week, but you can expect the ride to be social paced (8ish mph), no-drop, safe and welcoming, store stop with safe clean bathroom access and the ride is always a loop. We practice consent and non-violence specially with car interactions, what one ride does affects how all rides get treated. The Mellow Mondays are a space for (new) ride leaders to try out ideas in a very supported environment. You’ll often see Mondays rides appearing again during the warmer riding season. We follow the shift code of conduct and expect everyone to be respectful of themselves and others around them. This is so we can actually relax and have fun and connect with each other in a softer space. This isn’t a sober ride but we ask for moderation to keep the atmosphere relaxed. We recommend Abraham Fixes bikes in N Williams and NomadCycles (e-bike specialist) for repairs/sales and parts. Our friends over at RideSafePDX host regular ride and we’ recommend those as a pleasant warm group to ride with.

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, riding every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic party-paced “rolling dive bar” of a ride for newcomers and regulars alike. Most rides will feature park and store stops, but come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. New leadership, same positive vibes. While you might expect some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct, and if you’re banned from any Shift rides, TNR isn’t for you. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. Riders should practice 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 at 7:30. ✨Be an Empowered Bystander✨ See something off? Step up in a way that feels right for you: 🗣️ Direct: If it's safe, say *That's Not Right* for TNR. 🎭 Distract: Change the vibe and give them an out 🙋🏽 Delegate: Get help from a ride leader or trusted friend ⏳ Delay: Check in with the person afterwards 📝 Document: Write down what happened

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!

See insta link for video from 2023’s/2024 ride. Oh the grooves will be great and the dance spots will be cool but can you bring yourself to dance badly? I like to dance like a 5 year old at a wedding reception… ‘Dancing Ugly’ is a concept about freeing yourself from dancing for others gaze…However, we’re all going to be together doing our best to dance badly.. Special imaginary prizes will be handed out…Such as: Can’t keep a beat trophy, Do they need medical attention badge, Needing to pee really badly banner….And some others. We’re going to be getting down hard and badly on this dance ride. You’re invited to embrace the weirdness and be in an attitude that translates to personal Empowerment and a greater sense of self off the dance floor….Well that’s my excuse… ill fitting clothes recommended… Music will be dance centric and more than just EDM and Lizzo (but there will be Lizzo and EDM). Please message us on insta if there’s a specific song you wanna go mental to. Route will be a loop. Pace will be slow and social. Refreshment stop early. We will visit 3-4 dance spots each for about 10-15 mins before rolling. There will be a degree of impromptu dancing as well, in 2024 we bumped into a garage party and danced hard with them all briefly, in 2023 we stopped and helped a bunch of people who were unloading a massive u-haul. All our rides are safe/brave places, please help foster this communities acceptance and respect for each other. We expect everyone to respect consent and non-violence. The ride will have at least one stop to check on everyone and make sure everyone’s comfortable. Corkers and safe people volunteers appreciated, come talk with me (Moorland) at the start if you want to help support the ride.

Sorella Forte—Italian for strong sister—is a group of women, trans, and non-binary cyclists who share a passion for riding their bikes. We ride 25-40 miles at approximately 11-16 mph every Saturday at 9 a.m., from the parking lot of River City Bikes at 706 SE Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Portland, Oregon. Return about 12 p.m.

We meet at a different park in Portland every Saturday all year morning at about 9 to talk about home repair, travel plans, obscure board games, insects, etymology and sometimes bikes. Coffee Outside is often a meeting or starting point for adventures, day rides, group food cart rides or other outings. Bring a means to make coffee or some sort of coffee-adjacent beverage, or not. Instant chai? Perfect. A canned coffee beverage from the bodega? Legit. A special small batch blend of beans roasted in your neighborhood roastery that you measure by weight (portable scale, naturally) hand-grind in your titanium grinder before making a slow pour-over using hand-made paper filters and perfect temperature water? Sure, go for it. Baked goods are always appreciated but not at all required. Uniform? Nope. Fancy bike? Nope. Racing or ultra bikepacking chops? Nope. We enthusiastically welcome new faces and have no barrier to entry other than being your authentic self and leaving any bad/aggro attitudes at home. We post the location every Thursday on the PDX Coffee Outside website, which our friend Chris updates, and our Instagram account.

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.

Jackfruit, durian, fresh lychees or mangosteen? Depends on what looks good at the fruit market this time of year, which is earlier than last year's ride! We’ll pool our funds ($5 per person) and ride to get some fruit to share, eat in the park and play a fruit-themed party game. Finally, we'll ride to a spot for chè--Vietnamese iced dessert drinks. Fruit costumes encouraged but not required! You may leave the ride early at any time, but we will be riding back to the starting point. Approximately 7 flat miles for the full loop or 4.5 miles from start to iced dessert drink store. Ride crosses major roads including SE Woodstock, Foster, Holgate and Powell, using lights and short stretches of sidewalk where possible. We will regroup after intersections if we are split up as corking not guaranteed. Cross only when safe, we'll wait! While no one will be left behind, kids should be supervised and able to keep up with leisurely paced adults. Bring water, sun protection and $5 cash (exact change) for the fruit fund. (Disclaimer: participate at your own risk, not recommended if you are prone to food allergies. Event organizers are volunteers and assume no liability for adverse events.) We follow the Shift code of conduct.

In unison with Portland Book Week, we will be visiting independent bookstores in SE Portland. We will meet at Broadway Books at noon, and at a leisurely pace make our way south, ending in Sellwood. This is not a shopping trip (i.e. no money needed), but we will stop at each bookstore for at least 5 minutes.

MEET AT 12, ROLL AT 12:30 Join for a 12-mile ride around NE and SE with 8-10 stops to learn about notable buildings along the way. I'll be sharing quirky history and interesting architectural notes about buildings that have struck my eye while riding neighborhood streets. Fun fact: I drafted this route in my first month living in Portland as a way to get familiar with my new home. This is not a "family friendly" ride per se (I don't know the first thing about leading a ride for tiny humans!) but children over the age of 12 might enjoy the content. I aim to share information at a middle-school level. We will ride at an 8-10 MPH pace and regroup at the top of hills. If you're interested in helping with sweeping and corking, please reach out to @architecturetourspdx on Instagram. Route link will be added 1 week before the ride.

Welcome to REVOLUTIONARY SUMMER! It's the season to grab your bike, find your comrades, and soak up some sun while resisting fascism! We're kicking off the season with a revolutionary joyride that'll take us from Salmon Street Springs over to Laurelhurst Park, where we'll end with a Resistance & Mutual Aid Fair (organized by Rose City Indivisible). The pace will be easy but the energy will be high! You can expect lots of fun music and chanting on the ride, and when we arrive at Laurelhurst there will be tons of all-ages activities for leftists of all stripes. Don't forget to wear your keffiyehs, fly your trans pride flags (or whatever flag represents revolution to you), and bring your zines, stickers, and snacks to share! This isn't a mask-mandatory event but masks are encouraged and available. VIVA LA REVOLUTION!

​Hola gente de Portland We are psyched to bring you another cumbia-themed bike ride this June!!! We’ve been curating an awesome playlist of old and new cumbia jams that we’re excited to blast at full volume. Meet up at 3:00 p.m. and roll out at 3:30 p.m. We’ll start at Kenilworth Park and make our way to Sellwood Park. It’s about a 3-ish mile ride—nothing too intense. The main busy intersections we’ll be crossing are Bybee & 23rd and Bybee & Milwaukie. We usually hang out at the end chatting about cumbia music—or break into an impromptu dance party. Don’t forget to bring helmets, water, bike lights, and anything else you might need. Please practice consent in all aspects. If you experience any weird interactions, find Pablo or Rogelio—we’re here to check in and support you. Party pace as always... ¡que siga la cumbiaaaaaaaa! 🕺🚲💃

Hear us out. You got nothing to fear. A Lonely Island Ride. It's a good idear and it's not weird. So hear us out while we tell you what the concept's all about: It's bicycle riding through Portland while holding your boombox high with the turbo bass. Party pace - the plan is to start at Oregon Park (NE Oregon St/NE 30th Ave), riding around before heading through Ladd's (for Quaids dropping off at the Champagne Ride, party over here) and finishing at Sewallcrest Park (for Quaids sticking around for the Prince ride, party over here) between 6-6:30. Let’s bash. Let’s get creepin'. Let’s get awesome.

Prince 4Ever! Kicking off Pedalpalooza once again with a BANG and celebrating Prince's Birthday on SATURDAY, June 7th!! Prince would have turned 67 years old this year and even though Prince didn't celebrate birthdays & would often say: "You only had ONE birthday, the day of your birth!" We nonetheless are going to celebrate Prince, his life, his music and his legacy . . . 40 years ago, on April 22nd, 1985, Prince’s follow up to his landmark PURPLE RAIN album (and companion movie), AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY, was released on his newly formed Paisley Park label! So we’ll be celebrating those delicious Purple milestones as well! Starting at Sewallcrest Park (SE 32 and Market) riding around & heading to Prom and the to dance the night away! Bring Lights! Wear PURPLE! Ride at Own Risk! *Lighthearted prelude protest, expounding the principles of http://pdxwnbr.org/why (but without the nudity?) ;) #Pedalpalooza #TeamPrince

Established in 2017, we ride once a month to enjoy what this city has to offer. Each month is led by a different CORVIDAE member, and therefore will be unique. We occasionally have themes or additional donations to different organizations. Additionally, host pop-up rides during the summer. ​We try to focus our rides on greenways, group etiquette, safety measures and general comradery. In addition to bike safety and accessibility, we want to promote using bicycles as an alternative to fossil fueled travel within Portland. This is a no-drop ride, but please bring your repair kit with a spare tube so we can keep the ride rolling. Please bring your own provisions; we’ll be stopping near stores, but not at them. Each member has an eye out for the crowd, will cork, sweep and be a general pillar of support. Ride pace is casual at around 10 miles with a few park stops. We aim to impress that this is a safe environment for all; no aggressive, sexist, racist, or any other kind of BS will be tolerated. Please review our Corvidae Code of Conduct. Meet 2nd Sunday of every month Hang at 1 PM  Wheels down at 2 PM sharp Bring your respect for each and the city. Leave no trace 🤘🏽

June's Cargopalooza will be a social meetup beginning at Mt Hood Brewing near the Tilikum Crossing bridge. Begin the evening by "OoOOooing" and "AaAahing" over a variety of cool cargo contraptions.

Pre-full moon naked ride. Two days before the full moon is a large, bright moon that comes up 2 hours before sunset. So instead of rolling on the full moon, we're doing the Waxing Gibbous. Protesting car dominance. And having a good time! Past Tire and crew have been leading full moon rides for about 11 years, now shifting to Waxing Gibbous. (This is the correct June event -- meet at 8:30, roll at 9:00)

Join us on the westside for Bike Happy Hour. Meet new friends and old, hang out, grab a beverage (alcoholic or not), grab some food, and let's talk bikes! Everyone welcome! Every 2nd and 4th Monday, 4:30 to 7 p.m.

Ride Westside

Ride bikes to bars named “inn,” or which are in inns, by way of in-between spaces. Not a loop, approximately 12 miles. Stops & route TBA.

Our instagram is nakedHeartspdx so you can see how we ride. Weekly themed rides. Different ride leaders each week, but you can expect the ride to be social paced (8ish mph), no-drop, safe and welcoming, store stop with safe clean bathroom access and the ride is always a loop. We practice consent and non-violence specially with car interactions, what one ride does affects how all rides get treated. The Mellow Mondays are a space for (new) ride leaders to try out ideas in a very supported environment. You’ll often see Mondays rides appearing again during the warmer riding season. We follow the shift code of conduct and expect everyone to be respectful of themselves and others around them. This is so we can actually relax and have fun and connect with each other in a softer space. This isn’t a sober ride but we ask for moderation to keep the atmosphere relaxed. We recommend Abraham Fixes bikes in N Williams and NomadCycles (e-bike specialist) for repairs/sales and parts. Our friends over at RideSafePDX host regular ride and we’ recommend those as a pleasant warm group to ride with.

Join this Greenways ride to the June 12th Grand Opening of a newly renovated space in East Portland called Parklane Park, a large 25-acre park that was once the site of a private airport, previously known as Multnomah County Park, (nicknamed Candy Cane Park for its red and white stripped playground). For the past few years, the city was busy making big changes (see link below), let's go check them out and attend the Ribbon Cutting ceremony. District 1 council members Loretta Smith and Jamie Dunphy will also be in attendance at the opening celebration. The new Parklane Park (at SE 155th Ave & Main St) features a new playground, splash pad, basketball and tennis courts, soccer fields, pavilion for community events, covered picnic areas, community garden, skate park, dog off-leash area, paved walking paths, additional restrooms, parking, and hundreds of new trees. Along with two new commissioned pieces by local artists through the City’s Percent for Art program. The group ride to Parkland Park is 4 miles, and the complete loop back to the start is 12 miles. The loop route will use portions of the 80s, 100s, 130s, 150s, "4M", and HOP Greenways. We meet at the northeast corner of Harrison Park, directly on the 80s Greenway, for the start of the ride. Meetup time is 2:30, and we leave at 2:45 to reach the ceremony in time.

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, riding every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic party-paced “rolling dive bar” of a ride for newcomers and regulars alike. Most rides will feature park and store stops, but come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. New leadership, same positive vibes. While you might expect some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct, and if you’re banned from any Shift rides, TNR isn’t for you. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. Riders should practice 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 at 7:30. ✨Be an Empowered Bystander✨ See something off? Step up in a way that feels right for you: 🗣️ Direct: If it's safe, say *That's Not Right* for TNR. 🎭 Distract: Change the vibe and give them an out 🙋🏽 Delegate: Get help from a ride leader or trusted friend ⏳ Delay: Check in with the person afterwards 📝 Document: Write down what happened

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!

We'll go at a slow pace so folks can socialize, and everyone can keep up. We'll use small neighborhood streets with minimal cars. We'll stop often to interact with the locations. Some locations are clustered on the same block, sometimes we'll ride 10 minutes to the next location. Our entire ride will last around 2 hours.

What are you going to do now? A bike ride with all of the albums and it's like 3 1/2 hours long?? Yes, that's exactly what we're doing! Wear your favorite Eras Tour outfit, bring the friendship bracelets and a sound system (if you've got one). We'll be riding through the whole Eras Tour setlist as we relive the memories and make some new ones along the way.

With that out of the way, Bring those who enjoy the smell of Green flowers, healthy way of life and the Love of Biking in this City we call Portland Oregon.

Ride slowly meets at 7 pm and departs roughly at 7:45/8ish pm. An honorary 3 minutes of Ladd laps (Ding Ding Ride/Ladd500) and then we send it. Sometimes we have guest ride leaders. Friday Night Rides are different every time. Sometimes we go to other rides happening around town during the summer. End of ride fires/good vibes/respect/no jerks/ We are a community. Respect each other! No aggressive, sexist, racist, or any other kind of BS will be tolerated. Violations against the code of conduct will be reported to shift2bikes. If you ride Sur-Ron/powerful electric bikes this is not the ride for you. You can come but you might be heckled. This is a bicycle ride.

Come dressed in all the different Rubiks Cube colors: white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow. At each stop, ask other riders to exchange pieces of clothing to try to get an outfit of one solid color. Once you're dressed all in one color, you've done it, you've won the ride! At our last stop, we'll try re-exchanging clothes back to their owners, but no promises: don't wear any clothes you need to come home with.

More info coming soon… let’s get spooky and weird and go to MMR. Costumes encouraged.

More details TBD

This ride happens on the 2nd Friday of EVERY month, no matter the weather. Each month we have a new ride leader taking us to a mystery destination.

We meet at a different park in Portland every Saturday all year morning at about 9 to talk about home repair, travel plans, obscure board games, insects, etymology and sometimes bikes. Coffee Outside is often a meeting or starting point for adventures, day rides, group food cart rides or other outings. Bring a means to make coffee or some sort of coffee-adjacent beverage, or not. Instant chai? Perfect. A canned coffee beverage from the bodega? Legit. A special small batch blend of beans roasted in your neighborhood roastery that you measure by weight (portable scale, naturally) hand-grind in your titanium grinder before making a slow pour-over using hand-made paper filters and perfect temperature water? Sure, go for it. Baked goods are always appreciated but not at all required. Uniform? Nope. Fancy bike? Nope. Racing or ultra bikepacking chops? Nope. We enthusiastically welcome new faces and have no barrier to entry other than being your authentic self and leaving any bad/aggro attitudes at home. We post the location every Thursday on the PDX Coffee Outside website, which our friend Chris updates, and our Instagram account.

Join us for the Coffee to Books to Beer bike ride! This fun, laid-back social community ride is the best way to start the weekend, discover new spots, make connections, and have a good time. Meet at the courtyard behind Bread and Honey on N Vancouver at 9:45 AM to have a cup of coffee and chat with other riders. At 10:30 AM, we’ll kick off the ride, cruising for a 10-15 mile loop with a stop at a local bookstore midway and ending at an all-ages welcome venue around noon to hang out and have a beer. Every ride is a near-loop. This ride is family-friendly and designed for riders of all levels. The pace is easy, and the vibe is friendly. Everyone is welcome! We are going to try and host the Coffee to Books to Beer ride at least once a month from May through October from various locations. Keep an eye on the Shifts2Bikes calendar for more rides. We hope to see you there!

Back again with a new route and even more transit awesome, get ready for Northeast Portland Streetcar History Part Deux. Before things got too fast and furious with its MAX trains and Tillikum Crossings, Portland at the beginning of the 20th century, like most American cities, had an extensive streetcar network which fueled development of neighborhoods far from the city center. Commercial development followed the streetcar, creating many of the walkable neighborhoods we love today. Portland abandoned and paved over its streetcar tracks in the years after World War II, but here and there you can see tracks trying to peak up from below, reminding us of a time before cars commandeered our roads and good public transit was considered the height of fashion and technology and essential to any decent city. Learn more about the history of the streetcar in Northeast Portland, and its long lasting impact on development and transit in Northeast Portland. This 9 mile loop ride will include stops showing different pieces of the network. This educational ride will be family friendly and all are welcome.

In unison with Portland Book Week, we will be visiting independent bookstores in NE/N Portland. We will meet at the Lloyd Center Double Tree, and at a leisurely pace make our way North, ending in St Johns. This is not a shopping trip (i.e. no money needed), but we will stop at each bookstore for at least 5 minutes.

don your horsiest attire - jockeys, riders, equiinified individuals, cowpokes, hobby horbikes - and join us for the inaugural Going Gallop, up and down one of the North East's finest greenways. We will meet on Going, ride on Going, and go around in a horsey cul-de-sac just off Going. Likely a full circuit down to Vancouver, back up to 41st, and returning to the start. Meet your neighhhhbors. Dressage allowed at our pitstop. Best whinney wins it all. Optional Horse Racing and Horse Ring Tie Ups. have a great idea for an addition or fun activity during The Gallop? send it via Pony Express to my email.

Are you part of a tenants union or interested in figuring out how to organize one? Awesome! This ride is for you! This ride is for you even if you're not a renter, because tenants unions are playing a critical role in keeping our city affordable and livable, which benefits EVERYONE. We're celebrating the importance of tenants unions by bringing the energy, the big speakers, and an inspiring playlist on a tour of buildings all over town where residents have organized (or are working on organizing) a union. At each stop we'll hold a fun mini-rally and pick up any residents who want to come along on the ride. We'll eventually end in a park for a picnic and some community-building games and conversation. We'll have catered vegan food and drinks, but also feel free to bring snacks to share!

Celebrate the 17thh anniversary of Kidical Mass PDX with a bike ride downtown to get frozen yogurt! This family-friendly, kid-paced bike ride first happened in June 2008 on a route downtown similar to this one. This year we’ll ride from Tanner Springs park in NW Portland to Director Park, where we can get self-serve frozen yogurt with topping at Tartberry, a local shop. The ride is free, but bring money for yogurt. Meet at 2:00pm, ride at 2:15pm. The ride is a loop, 3.5 miles total, with a 30 minute break at the park and yogurt shop after 1.5 miles, so it is suitable for most young bike riders who can pedal their own bike without training wheels. We should be back to the start by 4:00 pm. We ride at a moderate pace for little pedalers and parents on cargo bikes. Kids should wear a helmet, be able to balance and pedal in a straight line, start and stop. Cargo bikes, tandems, trailers and tag-a-longs are great for kids who haven’t learned to pedal. Adult corkers are welcome to join as a traffic safety superheroes. We’ll ride together as a group, rain or shine, because kids are traffic too!

Reintegrate your innie and outie selves as we ride around town enjoying a Milchick-approved Music Dance Experience playlist! Let us praise Kier by partaking in a potluck of waffles, melon balls and deviled eggs!

It's time for a lovely day tour on three speed bicycles! Destination: Oregon City, where we can have a fine lunch, use America's favorite municipal elevator, tour the promenade, and see the Falls. Then we ride back to Portland. Lovely! This ride is open to all bikes that have a three speed internal geared hub. Hub and bike can be of any age and from any country. We also accept four and five speed internal geared hubs, but nothing larger. No derailleur equipped bicycles unless: a) it is on a Brompton or b) derailleur acts as chain tensioner. You do not need to be a member of Society of Three Speeds to be on the ride. If you are not a member, you can purchase a membership on the day of ride for just $25. The details: -The TOTAL ride is about 25 miles. The ride will start in Sellwood and end in Milwaukie, both locations easily accessible by the MAX Orange Line. This route is relatively flat and uses a lot of bike paths! There are a few hills, including one that you might have to walk (no shame in that!) though so be warned. -For those who don't want to ride the whole distance, one can take a bus from downtown Oregon City, basically halving the length. -This is a LEISURELY ride. We will take our time, we will have breaks. Don't think we'll be done by 1 PM. Nope, this is not that type of ride! Expect to be out until early evening and you won't be disappointed or stressed. -We'll have a good break in Oregon City to get sit-down food and adult libations. -We'll have a tea stop at some point. This is BYO, either bring hot tea or be prepared to make it with a stove. Coffee and other hot beverages are OK too.
