    Loop Ride is a loop

    Ever get stuck behind a stopped freight train near SE 8th-ish & Division? Do you find it aggravating when the Bob Stacy Crossing elevators are out of service? Is your bike too heavy to carry up and down the stairs? Well aggravate no longer, because I GOT SOME HACKS FOR YOU! This ride will demonstrate several bike-friendly workarounds for a stopped train. Expect everything from common bike-ways to narrow paths and some (legal, I think) sidewalk riding. There will be some switchback pedestrian walkways which are passable (if you've got the skill) with long cargo bikes. Trailers and tandems may need to step off and walk in a couple places. I will provide commentary throughout this short ride and guidance on how best to navigate the tricky spots!! Short, informative ride, timed for the morning commute! I saw someone else do a ride like this a couple years ago so if that person is you: Thank You for the inspiration!!! Might do a re-do in July and/or August on a weekend so commuters can make it. Once I make a ride track I'll post it here!!
