Get your gluten AND your glutes on! A morning tour of some of Portland's best sourdough bread bakeries. We'll meet in the miasma under the Franz bread sign to get in the mood, then ride down through SE Portland picking up loaves along the way at Good Dough (brand new!), Little T and Tabor Bread. We'll head to the Montavilla Farmers Market next, to visit Labyrinth Bread (focaccia to die for) and Hi Gluten (don't sleep on the kouign amann and the pretzel croissants). We'll take our goodies to Mt. Tabor Park (don't worry, not to the top!) and have a picnic in the shade by the reservoir. https://maps.app.goo.gl/EHiE2eU7Rn9zt1iJ8?g_st=ipc Anyone feeling spicy can ride an extra 13 miles to St. Johns to top up on carbs at Starter Bread with their amazing pretzels, slabs, cookies, and of course, bread. Without this it's around 9 miles ending at Tabor. I'll get a loaf from each bakery, but please bring some $$ to support the bakers and/or contribute bread or spread to share! Extra points if you baked it yourself. The ride is not a loop, about 21 miles for the whole shebang with a couple of hills but nothing too bad. No-drop, social pace, but we'll limit stops to 20 min (so maybe don't order a complicated sandwich). If you want to stay longer (maybe you really want that complicated sandwich) you can catch up at the next bakery. route here: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51420072 (subject to change) Helpful but not necessary for picnic time: blanket, knives, cutting boards, spreaders/spoons.

(Find People in the pink vests please don’t approach Bike Play performers themselves as they need to focus on their work). We need calm, kind corkers to help with Bike play.

How to cork basics, This ride emanates happy energy so drivers react and the ride is well received. General attitude: Engage with drivers kindly and thank them for waiting. Letting drivers know from a distance with hand gestures that it will just be a short delay. Please don’t crowd drivers by parking right on their bumper or riding up too their windows (they can feel intimidated by us no matter how friendly we are). Please don’t race through the group to get back to the front and become a risk factor for those around you (difficult to balance when you’re needed at the front but we also need to be careful around all the beginner riders). 1/Ride ahead of the group stopping on side streets to communicate with oncoming traffic. 2/Ride ahead of the group to the next busy intersection and try and direct cars from not turning onto the road. 3/Do not cork magor intersections until asked by the lead corker or Bike Play. We need to make sure we’re regrouped before corking the busier roads, 4/When waiting for Bike Play to pass over main intersections please wait for the very last riders too pass before stopping corking. 5/ Take care of yourself as well. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or triggered by a car interaction, please take time to regulate your emotions. We need to make sure we’re in a calm space. 6/ Enjoy hearing people yell, ‘ thank you corker’ and watching all the smiling faces ride by.

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.

Quick how to lead a ride tutorial before Mellow Mondays ride. Things we’ll cover, Theme creation, Creating the atmosphere you want, Sourcing support, Route planning, Speed, What if’s…… Then QnA. This is meant as a conversation opener and an opportunity to move towards leading your own rides. This will be lead by Moorland with occasional support. Brief Bio: NakedHearts has lead around 350 ish rides, with 100 ish different ride leaders, we’ve worked with local schools, government agencies, festivals, DJ’s, Bands, venues, parades, artist groups of all kinds and supported 100 ish other rides. So we have a little experience. But the all the experience just teaches caring about the ride and riders is what matters, and everything flows from there. For most people that comes naturally. Kiro (who’s only 8 years old) is considered the best ride leader and he cares about the ride and riders and having fun and that’s what makes him the best because that’s his focus. The mechanics of leading and organizing can seem daunting but it’s within reach of all of us.

Just show up and hang out. That's it! All ages are welcome but there is only street parking and bike racks where you can park bikes and displace cars if you want.

Have you ever dreamed of being able to bike to the Portland airport, park in a secure bike parking spot, and get on your plane? Or get off your plane and hop on a biketown? Over 10,000 people work around the Portland airport, yet it is disconnected from Portland's bike network. This past year, the Port completed an amazing path from the terminal, but it ends in the middle of nowhere. We will be riding to the airport (only a 20-minute ride!) and attending the Port's Planning advisory meeting to ask them to include a safe, all-ages and abilities bike route as part of their future plans. There is an opportunity for public comment if you wish, or just show up in support! Wear green.

Steeplejack Brewing is having a release party for River Hugger Lager in partnership with Human Access Project (HAP). Steeplejack collaborated with HAP to create an easy-drinking, river-ready lager best enjoyed outside, perhaps at the river’s edge. The kickoff party will run from 4:30-6:30pm at Steeplejack Union at 3757 SE Hawthorne Blvd. After enjoying a beer, bike riders will be led to Tuesday Splashdown at Audrey McCall Beach, HAP’s latest activation effort. Tuesday Splashdown features DJs, food carts, great sunset views of downtown and refreshing dips in the river!

A social ride for cargo bikes and the cargo-curious! For July's cargo meetup, we'll roll up to Woodlawn park for some CARGO POLO! Teams of 4 go head-to-head with two bikes per team and two players PER BIKE! Those interested in playing should form pairs with one bicycle that both players simultaneously will ride - one controlling the bike and one handling the mallet. We'll play until the winningest/high-scoringest pair is determined at which time glory and honor will be bestowed upon them in the form of high fives, congratulations, and maybe some prizes. Polo Mallets will be provided! We'll probably make a short store stop on the way to the park. LOCATION UPDATE: We'll won't be playing at the Alberta Park as the polo court there is already in-use on Tuesday evenings. Plan B is one of the two basketball courts at Woodlawn Park, both of which are partially enclosed so the ball can stay in play! Folks can meet us at Woodlawn ~6:45pm Good attitude is required. Zero tolerance for creeps, jerks, misogynists, cops, etc.

There may be detours for splash pads and popsicle breaks if necessary. We recommend bringing a respirator or at least a mask, as the air may be 🌶️spicy🌶️ We'll be looping back to SE either when it starts to get dark or when there's an imminent threat of violence/arrest/teargas at the protest, but we encourage those who are able (and have a respirator) to stay out as long as they can. We'll update this listing with supplies that protesters need and other relevant info closer to the date. No kids or pets, please!

Bike Happy Hour

Family Friendly, Law Abiding, Peaceful, Mellow ride from Colonel Summers Park to City Council Chambers to peacefully encourage City Councilors to revoke the permit for the I.C.E. Detention Office on Macadam Boulevard. Portland City Council has the right and responsibility to revoke the I.C.E. permit. The conditions of the permit requires that “the facility and its operations will not pose an unreasonable safety threat to nearby uses and residents” and can not hold detainees for more than 12 hours. The I.C.E. Detention Center is clearly a threat to the local residents of the neighborhood, using tear gas and rubber bullets in a residential neighborhood, across the street from a building that houses a low income elderly community, near a childcare facility, and hospital clinics. It has held detainees for longer than 12 hours, violating the conditional use permit. Portland City Council should enforce the law, revoke the permit, and uphold the ideals of our Sanctuary City. ***GOING INTO CITY HALL REQUIRES SECURITY SCREENING*** This is a no-drop ride. Bring food/snacks, water for yourself and family members, and remember your helmets and locks. No food is allowed in Council Chambers. The ride should be back to Colonel Summers at 7:30pm. We will need volunteers to cork, ride at the back (no drop). We will not leave bikes unattended outside City Hall. A volunteer will stay with the bikes at all times. If you’re not riding with us, meet at 5:30pm outside the main City Hall entrance: Portland City Hall 1221 SW 4th Ave, Portland, OR 97204 Entrance is on SW 4th between SW Jefferson and SW Madison. Our message will be peaceful and we will hold our signs up silently during public comments. Per City Council Website: “Please note: Public communications spots are fully booked through September 2025. The October dates will be available on August 1, 2025. “ We will hold signs or banners made from 8.5” x 11” paper (feel free to tape paper together to make a long banner) to have zero issues with security/x-ray machines getting into city hall. Don’t bring signs on sticks. PLEASE PRINT YOUR OWN if you have a printer. Feel free to draw, use colors, markers, etc. but BOLD black on white paper will show up well. We will have extra paper, tape and black markers at Colonel Summers. Our PAPER ONLY signs should make requests of the Council. “ICE out of Portland.” “End ICE Presence.” “Portland should terminate ICE’s contract.” “Remove ICE.” Lets keep the tone peaceful and respectful. No food is allowed in Council Chambers. Questions? Email sanctuarycyclePDX@gmail.com

This will be our 4th annual ride focusing on bringing joy, curiosity, and thoughtful attention to our urban canopy and its inequities which fall along lines of historical racism and income disparities. Our urban Trees keep us well in many ways, and deserve our love and protection. The good news is, the City is listening and making progress! Let's keep the momentum rolling and have a night of celebration for our Tree neighbors and the gifts they give us. 🌱❤️🌲 Notes! - Kids welcome, though they should be able to keep up with a pace that's casual for adults. - It’s a one-way (not a loop) ride.

NOTE THE CHANGE IN START LOCATION. We will start at Wilshire Park. MEET AT 6, ROLL AT 6:30. Bring lights! Calling all fans of Roman Mars - if you've wanted to know more about the streets and alleys of your city, this is the ride for you! My aim is to create a "99% Invisible, Live" experience. We'll explore the impact that human development and natural features have had on the streets of our city. Highways, streetcars, waterways, and housing development have all influenced the streets we ride our bikes on. 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: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51334017

How do you haul stuff? Storage makes the bike more useful. You can drive less, and do more by bike. Milk crates are my favorite solution! They hold so much! Since there's no lid, there's no limit to the height of your pile. You can put things in and take things out, while riding, or at a red light. You can attach decorations! It's cheap and easy! Calling all cyclists with milk crates on their bikes! Or those who are crate-curious. From the starting point, we'll head to Laurelhurst Park for milk-crate games and contests. Afterwards, we'll head to a grocery store (People's Coop or New Seasons), for a ~25 minute stop, and show off how many groceries you can carry. From there, you can either head home, or ride around downtown with me, ending at Lovejoy Fountain Park. This will be a slow ride, paced for people learning to bicycle, and families with children. No one will be left behind. This allows time for socializing during the ride. We’ll take greenways and bike lanes, to minimize interactions with drivers… because Portland’s bicycle network is incomplete, there may be short necessary portions of sharing larger roads, and we’ll stay together as a group for safety.

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

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.

Feel free to stay longer at the Woodlawn Farmers Market or at one the many adjacent bars/restaurants. This ride is almost a loop. If you wanted to start an finish at Peninsula Park, it would be easy to complete the loop on your own after we finish.

Synth Wave? Theme: Synth music. I’ve a somewhat healthy ,bordering on obsessive, love for Atmospheric synth music. My mind conjures images of cruising through the desert going from one strange David Lynchesque space too a Ray Bradburyesque situation. Or traveling along like Humphrey Bogart after leaving some seedy North-Cal coastal hotel on the way with a rendezvous with a Blade Runner whose driving a Ferrari F40 so they can talk about the CyberPunks who’ve been interrupting Max Headroom’s transmissions. Or the Thumping beat over synth drones as shambling Zombies sniff out Sarah Connor whose on her way to speak too Crockett and Tubbs……. You get the picture? That’s a lot of references. It’s the cinematic mood music that makes each moment feel somehow pivotal and life transforming and memory making. I love this type of music. I love how evocative it is, especially when traveling and so I’m pleased to be hosting this ride and sharing the moments it’ll create for us all. Route. Social pace with a store stop. Costumes? Cyberpunk or 80’s work well. This is a NakedHearts:PDX ride. We ask everyone to follow the shift code of conduct and also be personally accountable. We have an introduction before the ride where we lay out practicing consent and non violence. It takes all of us to make the rides comfortable so we can all chill.

RIDE #4: 82ND AVE Sacajawea Park to Flavel Park, brief pause at Powell WinCo - 7 miles, no loop. Our city is lacerated by multi-lane highways and stroads that are hostile to human life and subservient to mass automobility. These rides aim to prefigure what these wretched roadways should become -- long, straight, safe courses for human-powered transit! We claim these roads for bicycling! These rides will take the entire rightmost travel lane, and potentially more, depending on size -- the more people show up to ride together, the less individual bravery any one person needs to bring. Due to the current unsafety of these roads, these rides are not particularly recommended for younger children. The goal is to consistently move at ~12 mph, though we'll maintain whatever pace we need to stay together. The ride leader is an experienced road rider and will ride in the back as caboose/sweep with a brightly visible trailer. Snacks, waters, first aid kit, and bike tools will be on hand. We will follow road laws, but will prioritize staying together as a group, so corking would be welcome if the group size justifies it. This is a series of six rides on "unfriendly" roads -- demanding by action that no city streets should be unfriendly to people outside of cars! June 29, 3:00pm - 11th/12th-Milwaukie July 6, 5:00pm - Cesar Chavez July 12, 11:00am - Sandy July 20, 2:00pm - 82nd July 27, 10:00am - Powell August 3, 1:00pm - MLK Jr.

Welcome to THE *8th non-annual* ALLEY RIDE! (See an incredible IG video that BikePortland put together of last year's ride here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C84fL16JX_0/) We'll enjoy a semi-long ride (~13 miles) cruising at a moderate pace through the alleys of upper N/NE Portland. Wider tires are recommended for some chunky gravel and routine bumps! Take in the sights of beautiful murals, fun backyards, and weird things that are only found in alleys. Who knows what we'll come across - let's find out, together :) This is NOT a 'no drop' ride. The alleys are mostly great but sometimes rough, so please be prepared with a flat kit or be ready to take transit, etc. SPOILER ALERT! If you want to see the route ahead of time, here's the RideWithGPS link: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51144230 ~~~ NEW THIS YEAR! ~~~ This ride will officially 'end' at Alberta Park, where we will then kick-off our next ride, THE ALLEY RIDE ALLEY CAT ride. That ride will be a 'scavenger hunt' alley cat for individuals to race to locations that we just rode past to complete your manifest.

Co-led by Avery Hill (on the tunes) and Lois Leveen (on the route). Bring your 'ukulele (or other bike-able acoustic instrument) and join our rolling jam to parks and public spaces around inner SE and NE Portland. Lois will lead you to each stop, where Avery will lead a few 3-chord songs for the group to play and sing, then we'll move on to our next jam spot. Songs are geared (haha) toward 'ukulele players, but other instruments and/or sing-along-ers are very welcome. Riding details: This will not be an arduous ride, and we will stick to bike-friendly streets. The ride is NOT a loop but the final stop is only a five-minute ride from the start. If you haven’t ridden with an instrument case on your back or your bicycle, give it a try before the ride so you find the right fit / position for you (tip: wear your instrument diagonally across your back to avoid hitting your helmet with it!) What to bring: Helmets and water bottles are strongly urged, as well as any snacks you may want to have on hand (no snack stops planned). You may want a towel or blanket to sit on at each jam spot if you don't like sitting directly on grass. We may also ride late enough that you’ll want your lights to ride home. In case of extreme heat or poor air quality, this ride will be rescheduled. Please check back for updates.

The link at the bottom takes you too a video Jack Coleman (videographer) made from the last Opera ride. First: Do you need to like Opera? Not at all. If you’re open to music transforming the way a ride feels and how our city looks you’re in for a treat. What can you expect? Well, Opera. A carefully curated playlist. Moments of high drama and thrilling exaltation. Periods of such serenity as voices and music cascade around the city canyons consuming us in beauty and infrequently heard tones. The first time we held this ride (Amy ‘joy’ and Moorland) had no idea how profound a beautiful experience it would be or the depth of that beauty. Also, the playlist is interspersed with dialogue from the movie Casablanca just to give an underlying tonal theme. Route: We’re going to be rolling through city canyons so the acoustics reverberate. There will be a store stop for refreshments and while there the music will change to Rock Operas. The pace will be social and slow. Rebellion and punk shows in many forms, ask around about this insane ride and the previous years mischief! We troll hard!!! CHAOS!!!!!!!!!!!! Safety: As with all our rides, we practice consent and we practice non violence. You’re invited to come as you are and be who you are.

Are you a fan of the cult classic anime Akira? Get ready for the funnest bike in movie ride of the summer! Dress up as your favorite character, or just come for the fun.

Ever wondered how to bike to Rooster Rock State Park east of Portland? A clothing optional beach in the Columbia Rive Gorge with full river access, an 18 hole disk Golf course (clothed) and fun sandy single track. 35 mile round trip.. Route: Stark to Corbett with a bomb down to 84 then four miles of shoulder riding. The return trip is mostly flat, eight miles of shoulder riding and a historic viewpoint. The goal is a return to Troutdale by dark. Halsey Bike lanes for the return trip, with the 77 bus line available. Expect noise, debris, and wonderful views. The wide shoulder has plenty of room past the rumble strip and is legal to ride on. No entry fee, but bring everything one needs for flat repair and a fun day at the beach. Could be rescheduled due to weather, smoke or an unexpected camping trip.

By helping it also allows the families who turn up in large numbers to also relax riding with their children. For many people this will be there only Pedalpalooza bike ride. How to cork basics, This ride emanates happy energy so drivers react and the ride is well received. General attitude: Engage with drivers kindly and thank them for waiting. Letting drivers know from a distance with hand gestures that it will just be a short delay. Please don’t crowd drivers by parking right on their bumper or riding up too their windows (they can feel intimidated by us no matter how friendly we are). Please don’t race through the group to get back to the front and become a risk factor for those around you (difficult to balance when you’re needed at the front but we also need to be careful around all the beginner riders). 1/Ride ahead of the group stopping on side streets to communicate with oncoming traffic. 2/Ride ahead of the group to the next busy intersection and try and direct cars from not turning onto the road. 3/Do not cork magor intersections until asked by the lead corker or Bike Play. We need to make sure we’re regrouped before corking the busier roads, 4/When waiting for Bike Play to pass over main intersections please wait for the very last riders too pass before stopping corking. 5/ Take care of yourself as well. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or triggered by a car interaction, please take time to regulate your emotions. We need to make sure we’re in a calm space. 6/ Enjoy hearing people yell, ‘ thank you corker’ and watching all the smiling faces ride by.

For the third year in a row i'll have a trailer and a big speaker, let's roll around town listening to all the throwback emo hits. Dressing to depress is encouraged. Ride will be slightly less than 15 miles. No drop ride at a slightly more than party pace. Won't have a store stop till near the end of the ride so bring some snacks and bevvies

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.

Don't draw a bike, bike a drawing! Using state of the art technology, each rider will draw a colored line on a collaborative sketch just by riding around. It's magic, like Etch A Sketch, but the drawing dials are the wheels of your bike. How will the canvas affect our creativity? What are the limits and opportunities of this advanced new art medium? Bring a smartphone, and be prepared to "share your location." Your location will only be used to create this artwork and will not be accessed or stored beyond that. A method to mount your phone to your bike will allow to view the sketch in progress hands-free, but it's not necessary. Part of a series.

Quick how to lead a ride tutorial before Mellow Mondays ride. Things we’ll cover, Theme creation, Creating the atmosphere you want, Sourcing support, Route planning, Speed, What if’s…… Then QnA. This is meant as a conversation opener and an opportunity to move towards leading your own rides. This will be lead by Moorland with occasional support. Brief Bio: NakedHearts has lead around 350 ish rides, with 100 ish different ride leaders, we’ve worked with local schools, government agencies, festivals, DJ’s, Bands, venues, parades, artist groups of all kinds and supported 100 ish other rides. So we have a little experience. But the all the experience just teaches caring about the ride and riders is what matters, and everything flows from there. For most people that comes naturally. Kiro (who’s only 8 years old) is considered the best ride leader and he cares about the ride and riders and having fun and that’s what makes him the best because that’s his focus. The mechanics of leading and organizing can seem daunting but it’s within reach of all of us.

Mellow Mondays by NakedHearts:PDX — for July 21st, ride leaders BiciBuds (Máximo & Bryson) have a special one planned. Grab your bunny ears, slap on some burger puns, and join us for a chill 12-mile cruise inspired by our favorite seaside grill family! We’ll be riding at an easy pace, bumpin’ tunes from the show and laughing along to iconic scenes from Bob, Linda, Tina, Gene, and Louise. Costumes highly encouraged - whether you’re a Beef Squatch, a Tina in heat, or just feelin’ your inner Linda scream (“ALRIIIIGHT!”), we want to see it! Expect good vibes, weird fun, and plenty of opportunities to buttloose. No one gets left behind - except maybe Teddy if he forgets his bike again. Store stop will be included and ride is a loop. Not a sober ride however please party responsibly and keep the safety of yourself and others in mind. These rides are intended to be a safe space. No hate or bigotry allowed but just don’t be a d*ck and be kind. We are all going through something so respect others and treat people like you’d want to be treated. Come out and have fun because we’re all just big kids on bikes.

Want to learn who works in your building or get to know people you see on your lunch break? Meet fellow Lloyd commuters and get to know each other. This is a super casual, 3.5 mile ride—the goal of this ride is connection more than a workout! We'll stop at several local highlights to chat, then end at Steeplejack to continue the conversation.

*SECOND ANNUAL* Come show off your wheels to stairs technique! Portland has over 180 beautiful, historic staircases to enjoy, lets climb approximately 7 of them together... While carrying our bikes/boards/tall bikes (we had one last year!), of course! Route is varied with some small hills (and stairs!) along the way. The soundtrack for the ride will feature theme specific songs about climbing, being high, and taking things one step at a time. Ride can be a bit intense but with a party vibe. NO ONE LEFT BEHIND and lots of time for dance breaks while waiting for everyone to clear the staircase and hydrate. Ends in Wallace Park with casual award ceremony for various categories such as: heaviest bike, most impractical, best bunny impression, etc. All wheels welcome, lets see what you got! Last year was a blast let's do it again!!
