Join us for the fourth Pedalpalooza Portland Boring Portland, a brisk ride down to the Springwater, out to Boring, and back. 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. Not a no-drop ride, but we'll have multiple gather spots along the way. All are welcome. If you're an ancien or ancienne (that's a Paris-Brest-Paris finisher), bring your jersey, rando bike, and stories. All bikes are welcome, but randonneuring is the style of the day. 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. Bonne route!
