Ride is a loop
If you're a ride leader or aspiring ride leader, or interested in learning about the art of route planning from a League of American Bicyclists League Cycling Instructor and seasoned route creator and ride leader, come on out! Or maybe you'd just like to come on a fun bike ride and help by contributing feedback about the route--that's a huge help, too. We'll be riding 4-5 miles, starting and ending at Luuwit View Park (meet at the picnic tables under the yellow canopy, close to Fremont & 129th). No ride leading or route testing experience required, but you will need to provide your own wheels. You can also join us as a ride escort on the day of the event–Sunday, September 8th at 10:30 a.m.--by signing up here: https://secure.everyaction.com/AHr3QwEhDkWuKOWX-KGBlQ2 This is also a unique opportunity to learn about and see the site of the future Columbia Levee Connector! The Columbia Levee Connector will be a multi-modal pathway that spans from Sandy Blvd to NE Marine Drive at about 142nd (running north-south), strategically linking Argay and Parkrose Neighborhoods to the bustling Columbia River. This is a project The Street Trust has been involved with and we'll be giving a tour of the site and sharing news about the history and future of the exciting project. Regular (non-e) bikes are fine for helping at Ride2Own events--our group rides are relatively slow so we can all stay together. However, if you're an e-bike rider or e-bike booster, we especially want to have you there spreading the love! About Ride2Own Ride2Own is an e-bike ownership program run by The Street Trust with pilots in Hillsboro, Milwaukie, Parkrose, and Portsmouth. Learn more at Ride2Own.org
