Ride is a loop
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.
