Welcome to Mellow Mondays 2026. 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.

I know what you're thinking. "fvck, I don't have enough Halloween plans! And none of them involve bikes!!" Don't worry babe, we got you covered. Don your most ride-worthy costumes, meet us at TBD (Likely somewhere in inner SE) @6:30 ride at 7:00, and let's paint the town... orange. scary orange. Dysentery Jell-O shots, monster mashes, graveyard smashes, flash mobbing people with Thriller (no we won't rehearse), dunkaroos and you remember eddie's wagon? The Oregon Trailer We're gonna let that horse run. (Spooky karaoke backup at TBD if the weather is shite) Aiming to keep this ride at a reasonable distance, around 5 miles or less. Riding at a relaxed group pace. Will continue to update the description as plans and route are confirmed, but wanted to get this set up so people can have this on there radar.

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, rolling out from Salmon Street Springs every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic, party-paced social ride with warmth and weirdness from our welcoming “rolling dive bar” regulars. Most rides feature regularly spaced park and store stops, generally leading to a lively end spot around 11 PM. Come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. Strong Thursday traditions, stronger shared expectations. While you might see some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct. If you’ve been asked not to attend *any* Shift rides, you are not welcome at TNR—that’s not up for debate on our ride. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. TNR works best when everyone helps set the tone and shares responsibility. Look out for each other, welcome new riders and help them find the next stop, leave it better than you found it, give people space when they need it, and help keep the ride moving forward together by practicing Consent, Accountability, Respect, and De-escalation at all times. Stay behind the ride leader and don’t forget to thank a corker! 📍 Salmon Street Springs, every Thursday, rain or shine. 🕖 Meet at 7:00, announcements after 7:30, leave after “Beer Minutes.” 🕢 If you’re not at the fountain by 7:30, you may want to meet us at the next stop. 🧭 Ride Tracker: https://thursdaynightride.com/tracker https://ridewithgps.com/users/1303039/live_log

Thursday Night Ride

⛲️ If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to get involved, come early and ask for the ride leader—we’ll see you at the fountain!

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. 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). And, an extra bike tube wouldn't hurt! Remember, wherever we end up along the way, we always practice Leave No Trace! 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. Last Thursday Pre-Ride Social: 9/24 (Funhouse Brews: 7717 N Emerald Ave), 10/29 (TBD).

Friday night ride is a social ride for people who enjoy a sporty pace and adventurous routes. Every ride is different but generally range between 15 and 25 miles and you can expect some climbing and higher speeds than your average pedalpalooza ride. NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE. Riders should be self sufficient and have a plan for getting themselves home. This is a bicycle-forward group ride. Pedal-assist ebikes are ok (class 1 & 2). Throttle heavy, high speed battery powered motor bikes are not (class 3 & 4). If you're not pedaling it’s not a bicycle and you will asked to leave. Bring lights/locks/responsible vibes/a cup/ Casual pace with some extra zip 10-20ish mile rides with store stops/park stops/art stops NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Be careful of slippery roads/leafs on ground/pot holes. Call out road hazards to help bike friends stay safe. 2nd Fridays are MMR - later night vibes to make it to Midnight Mystery Ride. If you want to lead a ride just ask! REPEAT… NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Guest ride leaders wanted and appreciated! Instagram @fridaynightride

You can borrow a cargo bike from our friends at the Westside Transportation Alliance (WTA) for a test ride! It’s a great opportunity to ride with experienced cargo bikers to see if the cargo bike life is for you: https://form.jotform.com/251561323634048/prefill/6ad000e7343330d693fcd7ef18af (Clickable link below) We’ll start at the community garden at THPRD’s Howard M.

Schiffler Memorial Park Eichler Bike Park Kennedy Garden This is our first year, so we’ll see how it goes, stay flexible, and learn as we ride. Come help turn the season’s extra harvest into something good for our neighbors!

The most fun naked ride we host. This ride needs people clothed so as we startle and surprise passers by it looks like the Zombies are chasing people. Costumes? Yes. Fake blood and oats makes great gore. Come as a Zombie apocalypse warrior survivor (no actual weapons)… Some people gradually turn into Zombies during the ride. Bandages and hospital smocks…. Theme: The World of the Dead zombie ride, embraces the vision of Zombie movie legend director George A Romero and is a stance against unbridled consumerism and group think. So ironically buy a bunch of fake blood and wander the roads in a Zombie horde yelling ‘Brains’ at passerby. We purposely Zombie Flash Mob and surprise large groups of people. It’s an amazingly liberating experience and transcends what zombies and horror and such and the gore and whilst looking your worst you are applauded and people wave hysterically happy to see us all…. This is my (Moorland) arguably favorite ride. The music is all from Zombie Movies and is intercut with the uncomfortable growls of the undead and movie dialogue…. As with all our rides, we practice consent and non-violence…. Please ask others for permission before eating any part of them.

Lisa: My partner in Sacramento, CA and I (now in Portland) had a community radio show for the year of 2024 in Davis, CA at KDVS 90.3 FM. We would play goth, industrial, soundtracks, scores, indie rock, and more. Kyle really liked playing music from mostly small shows (some medium) we would attend. We are planning to have some of the focus be on the dead or death or related topics to honor The Day of the Dead in our own way. If anyone has any requests to add to remember or honor their Loved Ones, we welcome those songs. Even if you don't think they fit with our music choices, we still welcome them. Moorland is helping us with our route. Thanks:)
