Ride is a loop
End location: 7701 N Chautauqua Blvd, Portland, OR 97217
Ride length: 8-15 miles
Thursday nights. Hard start at 8:05 PM. It's almost the weekend, so let's ride bikes. We roll from and return to Columbia Park (meet in front of the pool) for an hour-ish ramble through North Portland and beyond. No agenda beyond riding bikes with good people on a summer evening. Expect roughly 10 miles at a conversation-friendly pace (~10 mph). We usually have a brief rest stop along the way for snacks, stretching, high fives, admiring a weird tree, taking in a panoramic view, or whatever else seems important at the time. This is a no-drop ride. Basket bikes, ATBs, all-road bikes, cruisers, "gravel" bikes, fancy bikes, old bikes, rusty bikes, whatever. If your bike can comfortably cruise at ~10 mph for an hour, it’ll be fine. Bring:
-Front and rear lights (required)
-Snacks if you'd like
-water or optional beverage, maximum vibes (no store stop). Meet: 7:45 PM
. Roll: 8:05 PM sharp
. Start & Finish: Columbia Park, in front of the pool. Come meet your neighbors and see what North Portland looks like after dark. Happy Hour last Thur of each month: 7/30 (6pm at Chill & Fill), 8/27 (TBD), 9/24 (TBD), 10/29 (TBD). Check back for happy hour location(s). **The ride will be canceled if the AQI is above 100 at the scheduled start time or is forecast to exceed 100 during the ride. Decisions will be based on current local air quality readings. https://www.iqair.com/air-quality/usa/oregon/portland https://firesmoke.ca/forecasts/current/
