Ride at 7:30
The 2nd Cover Songs Ride! David K. (California Music, Cactus rides) and Moorland will lead you on a casual ride around Portland. We'll be playing cover versions of popular songs. Think Prince, Johnny Cash, Beyoncé, Ozzy Osbourne, the Rolling Stones with them both covering songs and covers of their songs. Only one song per artist and no covers of the same song, but this does have several covers of Beatles songs by different artists and there is a wide variety of rock and pop with even some country, rap and more. What makes a good cover song? 1) It has to be good on its own. 2) The song covered is popular enough to be recognized 3) The cover song sounds different than the original. - Mellow Mondays. Chill pace, social, beginner friendly ride. Abernethy Elementary school, Orange st. Are you interested in leading a ride? This is a supportive and organized way to lead for the first time. Every week there’s different themes but there are constants…. Slow pace, about 8 mph, Distance varies but approx 10 miles, Family friendly, We practice consent and non-violence on all our rides, Store stop for safe clean bathroom access but generally we try and make these stops short, Skater friendly (but please check with ride leader about crunchy or potential issues for skates), ALL Wheels friendly (scooter, skates, skateboard, e bikes etc), Ride is always a loop, Corking and traffic intersections are calm. Be mindful of smoking around others and do not smoke around children. FAQ, Can I bring a speaker? Yes but please speak to the ride leader and play the music they’ve carefully selected or what their preference is. Can I lead a ride? Yes, please attend a few first and get a feel for how the rides are. I’ve heard NakedHearts supports other rides? Yes, we can help with planning, encouragement, promotion, sound support and what not. What do you mean you practice consent? We ask everyone (even friends, relatives, husbands and wives with each other) to ask for permission before touching anyone else or their belongings and when asking to seek listen and empower ‘No’. What do you mean you practice Non-violence? We specifically expect everyone to be calm, kind and respectful with all car interactions. One riders aggression to a car driver can put everyone else at risk. We live in a small city and are bound to encounter the same drivers again. Are all your rides a protest? Yes, being together with respect and acceptance and finding comfort and joy around others and strangers is an act of protest against the divisive paradigm we are in. https://www.instagram.com/nakedhearts.pdx?igsh=MTI3a2h3YTE2c3E5bw%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
