This will be our 4th annual ride focusing on bringing joy, curiosity, and thoughtful attention to our urban canopy and its inequities which fall along lines of historical racism and income disparities. Our urban Trees keep us well in many ways, and deserve our love and protection. The good news is, the City is listening and making progress! Let's keep the momentum rolling and have a night of celebration for our Tree neighbors and the gifts they give us. 🌱❤️🌲 Notes! - Kids welcome, though they should be able to keep up with a pace that's casual for adults. - It’s a one-way (not a loop) ride.

Bring your friends, picnic blankets, and favorite snacks to share! This ride is all about sharing with your community. Is there a particular bag of chips from H-Mart that only YOU know about? Do you have a secret 7-layer dip recipe that you're famous for? Or does your grandma make the worlds best brownie bites? If any of these scenarios resonate with you, this is the ride for you! Come with your favorite secret or un-secret snacks to share with friends old and new. This will be a short and party-paced ride, accessible for anyone with a bike or any other human-powered wheeled device. IMPORTANT: There will be NO store stop on this ride, so please bring what you need to the ride. The end spot will be Laurelhurst Park with public bathrooms and musical entertainment feat. Johnny Franco's weekly Curbside Seranade!

How do you haul stuff? Storage makes the bike more useful. You can drive less, and do more by bike. Milk crates are my favorite solution! They hold so much! Since there's no lid, there's no limit to the height of your pile. You can put things in and take things out, while riding, or at a red light. You can attach decorations! It's cheap and easy! Calling all cyclists with milk crates on their bikes! Or those who are crate-curious. From the starting point, we'll head to Laurelhurst Park for milk-crate games and contests. Afterwards, we'll head to a grocery store (People's Coop or New Seasons), for a ~25 minute stop, and show off how many groceries you can carry. From there, you can either head home, or ride around downtown with me, ending at Lovejoy Fountain Park. This will be a slow ride, paced for people learning to bicycle, and families with children. No one will be left behind. This allows time for socializing during the ride. We’ll take greenways and bike lanes, to minimize interactions with drivers… because Portland’s bicycle network is incomplete, there may be short necessary portions of sharing larger roads, and we’ll stay together as a group for safety.

Ride along with The Athletic Community Cycling Club for our weekly Thursday night shop ride! Here are the deets: - Party Pace (10-12 mph) - No Drop - 2 Meeting spots: 6pm @ The Athletic, 6:30pm @ Steel Bridge East - ~20 miles - Different routes each week. This week features Springwater, 205, and then due east to Ice Queen - optional Tabor climb depending on what the group wants - Ice cream stop! This week is Ice Queen - All are welcome! All bikes, all folks! We can't wait to see you! <3 TACCC

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, riding every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic party-paced “rolling dive bar” of a ride for newcomers and regulars alike. Most rides will feature park and store stops, but come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. New leadership, same positive vibes. While you might expect some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct, and if you’re banned from any Shift rides, TNR isn’t for you. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. Riders should practice 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 at 7:30. ✨Be an Empowered Bystander✨ See something off? Step up in a way that feels right for you: 🗣️ Direct: If it's safe, say *That's Not Right* for TNR. 🎭 Distract: Change the vibe and give them an out 🙋🏽 Delegate: Get help from a ride leader or trusted friend ⏳ Delay: Check in with the person afterwards 📝 Document: Write down what happened

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!

Hey Folks! We previously did a couple of these video game rides, Where we bring a larger projector around and play games on the sides of buildings. The most recent was plagued by issues w the Atari we were using. While we salvaged the ride with another console unit we didnt get to have a proper contest for Space Invaders. And I'm sure you would agree that just won't do! We have solved the issue and are looking forward to this RePlay! We will ride to and compete at one main location this time. I will post that location the evening of the ride so people can join us mid-session if they would like. If there is enough interest we will unlock a bonus level somewhere

We meet at a different park in Portland every Saturday all year morning at about 9 to talk about home repair, travel plans, obscure board games, insects, etymology and sometimes bikes.

Instant chai? Perfect. A canned coffee beverage from the bodega? Legit. A special small batch blend of beans roasted in your neighborhood roastery that you measure by weight (portable scale, naturally) hand-grind in your titanium grinder before making a slow pour-over using hand-made paper filters and perfect temperature water? Sure, go for it. Baked goods are always appreciated but not at all required. Uniform? Nope. Fancy bike? Nope. Racing or ultra bikepacking chops? Nope. We enthusiastically welcome new faces and have no barrier to entry other than being your authentic self and leaving any bad/aggro attitudes at home. We post the location every Thursday on the PDX Coffee Outside website, which our friend Chris updates, and our Instagram account.

(Find People in the pink vests please don’t approach Bike Play performers themselves as they need to focus on their work). We need calm, kind corkers to help with Bike play. By helping it allows the performers to focus on their preparation for the next scene and relax and breathe a little more. By helping it also allows the families who turn up in large numbers to also relax riding with their children. For many people this will be there only Pedalpalooza bike ride. How to cork basics, This ride emanates happy energy so drivers react and the ride is well received. General attitude: Engage with drivers kindly and thank them for waiting. Letting drivers know from a distance with hand gestures that it will just be a short delay. Please don’t crowd drivers by parking right on their bumper or riding up too their windows (they can feel intimidated by us no matter how friendly we are). Please don’t race through the group to get back to the front and become a risk factor for those around you (difficult to balance when you’re needed at the front but we also need to be careful around all the beginner riders). 1/Ride ahead of the group stopping on side streets to communicate with oncoming traffic. 2/Ride ahead of the group to the next busy intersection and try and direct cars from not turning onto the road. 3/Do not cork magor intersections until asked by the lead corker or Bike Play. We need to make sure we’re regrouped before corking the busier roads, 4/When waiting for Bike Play to pass over main intersections please wait for the very last riders too pass before stopping corking. 5/ Take care of yourself as well. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or triggered by a car interaction, please take time to regulate your emotions. We need to make sure we’re in a calm space. 6/ Enjoy hearing people yell, ‘ thank you corker’ and watching all the smiling faces ride by.

Synth Wave? Theme: Synth music. I’ve a somewhat healthy ,bordering on obsessive, love for Atmospheric synth music. My mind conjures images of cruising through the desert going from one strange David Lynchesque space too a Ray Bradburyesque situation. Or traveling along like Humphrey Bogart after leaving some seedy North-Cal coastal hotel on the way with a rendezvous with a Blade Runner whose driving a Ferrari F40 so they can talk about the CyberPunks who’ve been interrupting Max Headroom’s transmissions. Or the Thumping beat over synth drones as shambling Zombies sniff out Sarah Connor whose on her way to speak too Crockett and Tubbs……. You get the picture? That’s a lot of references. It’s the cinematic mood music that makes each moment feel somehow pivotal and life transforming and memory making. I love this type of music. I love how evocative it is, especially when traveling and so I’m pleased to be hosting this ride and sharing the moments it’ll create for us all. Route. Social pace with a store stop. Costumes? Cyberpunk or 80’s work well. This is a NakedHearts:PDX ride. We ask everyone to follow the shift code of conduct and also be personally accountable. We have an introduction before the ride where we lay out practicing consent and non violence. It takes all of us to make the rides comfortable so we can all chill.

RIDE #4: 82ND AVE Sacajawea Park to Flavel Park, brief pause at Powell WinCo - 7 miles, no loop. Our city is lacerated by multi-lane highways and stroads that are hostile to human life and subservient to mass automobility. These rides aim to prefigure what these wretched roadways should become -- long, straight, safe courses for human-powered transit! We claim these roads for bicycling! These rides will take the entire rightmost travel lane, and potentially more, depending on size -- the more people show up to ride together, the less individual bravery any one person needs to bring. Due to the current unsafety of these roads, these rides are not particularly recommended for younger children. The goal is to consistently move at ~12 mph, though we'll maintain whatever pace we need to stay together. The ride leader is an experienced road rider and will ride in the back as caboose/sweep with a brightly visible trailer. Snacks, waters, first aid kit, and bike tools will be on hand. We will follow road laws, but will prioritize staying together as a group, so corking would be welcome if the group size justifies it. This is a series of six rides on "unfriendly" roads -- demanding by action that no city streets should be unfriendly to people outside of cars! June 29, 3:00pm - 11th/12th-Milwaukie July 6, 5:00pm - Cesar Chavez July 12, 11:00am - Sandy July 20, 2:00pm - 82nd July 27, 10:00am - Powell August 3, 1:00pm - MLK Jr.

Welcome to THE *8th non-annual* ALLEY RIDE! (See an incredible IG video that BikePortland put together of last year's ride here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C84fL16JX_0/) We'll enjoy a semi-long ride (~13 miles) cruising at a moderate pace through the alleys of upper N/NE Portland. Wider tires are recommended for some chunky gravel and routine bumps! Take in the sights of beautiful murals, fun backyards, and weird things that are only found in alleys. Who knows what we'll come across - let's find out, together :) This is NOT a 'no drop' ride. The alleys are mostly great but sometimes rough, so please be prepared with a flat kit or be ready to take transit, etc. SPOILER ALERT! If you want to see the route ahead of time, here's the RideWithGPS link: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51144230 ~~~ NEW THIS YEAR! ~~~ This ride will officially 'end' at Alberta Park, where we will then kick-off our next ride, THE ALLEY RIDE ALLEY CAT ride. That ride will be a 'scavenger hunt' alley cat for individuals to race to locations that we just rode past to complete your manifest. See more details on the event listing here: https://www.shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-22247

Co-led by Avery Hill (on the tunes) and Lois Leveen (on the route). Bring your 'ukulele (or other bike-able acoustic instrument) and join our rolling jam to parks and public spaces around inner SE and NE Portland. Lois will lead you to each stop, where Avery will lead a few 3-chord songs for the group to play and sing, then we'll move on to our next jam spot. Songs are geared (haha) toward 'ukulele players, but other instruments and/or sing-along-ers are very welcome. Riding details: This will not be an arduous ride, and we will stick to bike-friendly streets. The ride is NOT a loop but the final stop is only a five-minute ride from the start. If you haven’t ridden with an instrument case on your back or your bicycle, give it a try before the ride so you find the right fit / position for you (tip: wear your instrument diagonally across your back to avoid hitting your helmet with it!) What to bring: Helmets and water bottles are strongly urged, as well as any snacks you may want to have on hand (no snack stops planned). You may want a towel or blanket to sit on at each jam spot if you don't like sitting directly on grass. We may also ride late enough that you’ll want your lights to ride home. In case of extreme heat or poor air quality, this ride will be rescheduled. Please check back for updates.

Got a Schwinn? Maybe something new... or old? Perhaps a custom build? Come on down to Colonel Summers and show off that Schwinn!

We’ll meet up at 6 and eventually conjunct the ride with the monthly zoobomb meetup and join them in an adventure to the top of the hill where we will setup the projector and show the movie. Come join in the fun and enjoy viewing the cult classic that is Akira.

A CULT > A CULTURE > A RIDE Zoobomb lore states we not disclose more than necessary Meet at the Zoobomb Pyle @ 8 pm Roll to MAX, obtain fare Ascend 260 feet in seconds Enjoy the scenic vista Bomb the hill <for desired results, repeat as necessary> If it rolls, fits on the MAX, and doesn't stink you are encouraged to ride it at your own risk.

Ever wondered how to bike to Rooster Rock State Park east of Portland? A clothing optional beach in the Columbia Rive Gorge with full river access, an 18 hole disk Golf course (clothed) and fun sandy single track. 35 mile round trip.. Route: Stark to Corbett with a bomb down to 84 then four miles of shoulder riding. The return trip is mostly flat, eight miles of shoulder riding and a historic viewpoint. The goal is a return to Troutdale by dark. Halsey Bike lanes for the return trip, with the 77 bus line available. Expect noise, debris, and wonderful views. The wide shoulder has plenty of room past the rumble strip and is legal to ride on. No entry fee, but bring everything one needs for flat repair and a fun day at the beach. Could be rescheduled due to weather, smoke or an unexpected camping trip.

For the third year in a row i'll have a trailer and a big speaker, let's roll around town listening to all the throwback emo hits. Dressing to depress is encouraged. Ride will be slightly less than 15 miles. No drop ride at a slightly more than party pace. Won't have a store stop till near the end of the ride so bring some snacks and bevvies

Our instagram is nakedHeartspdx so you can see how we ride. Weekly themed rides. Different ride leaders each week, but you can expect the ride to be social paced (8ish mph), no-drop, safe and welcoming, store stop with safe clean bathroom access and the ride is always a loop. We practice consent and non-violence specially with car interactions, what one ride does affects how all rides get treated. The Mellow Mondays are a space for (new) ride leaders to try out ideas in a very supported environment. You’ll often see Mondays rides appearing again during the warmer riding season. We follow the shift code of conduct and expect everyone to be respectful of themselves and others around them. This is so we can actually relax and have fun and connect with each other in a softer space. This isn’t a sober ride but we ask for moderation to keep the atmosphere relaxed. We recommend Abraham Fixes bikes in N Williams and NomadCycles (e-bike specialist) for repairs/sales and parts. Our friends over at RideSafePDX host regular ride and we’ recommend those as a pleasant warm group to ride with.

Don't draw a bike, bike a drawing! Using state of the art technology, each rider will draw a colored line on a collaborative sketch just by riding around. It's magic, like Etch A Sketch, but the drawing dials are the wheels of your bike. How will the canvas affect our creativity? What are the limits and opportunities of this advanced new art medium? Bring a smartphone, and be prepared to "share your location." Your location will only be used to create this artwork and will not be accessed or stored beyond that. A method to mount your phone to your bike will allow to view the sketch in progress hands-free, but it's not necessary. Part of a series.

Quick how to lead a ride tutorial before Mellow Mondays ride. Things we’ll cover, Theme creation, Creating the atmosphere you want, Sourcing support, Route planning, Speed, What if’s…… Then QnA. This is meant as a conversation opener and an opportunity to move towards leading your own rides. This will be lead by Moorland with occasional support. Brief Bio: NakedHearts has lead around 350 ish rides, with 100 ish different ride leaders, we’ve worked with local schools, government agencies, festivals, DJ’s, Bands, venues, parades, artist groups of all kinds and supported 100 ish other rides. So we have a little experience. But the all the experience just teaches caring about the ride and riders is what matters, and everything flows from there. For most people that comes naturally. Kiro (who’s only 8 years old) is considered the best ride leader and he cares about the ride and riders and having fun and that’s what makes him the best because that’s his focus. The mechanics of leading and organizing can seem daunting but it’s within reach of all of us.

Mellow Mondays by NakedHearts:PDX — for July 21st, ride leaders BiciBuds (Máximo & Bryson) have a special one planned. Grab your bunny ears, slap on some burger puns, and join us for a chill 12-mile cruise inspired by our favorite seaside grill family! We’ll be riding at an easy pace, playing songs & scenes from the show and laughing along to iconic scenes from Bob, Linda, Tina, Gene, and Louise. You don’t need to be a fan of the show, simply show up and be prepared for a hilarious time. Costumes highly encouraged - whether you’re a Beef Squatch, a Tina in heat, or just feelin’ your inner Linda scream (“ALRIIIIGHT!”), we want to see it! Expect good vibes, weird fun, and plenty of opportunities to buttloose. No one gets left behind - except maybe Teddy if he forgets his bike again. Store stop will be included and ride is a loop. Not a sober ride however please party responsibly and keep the safety of yourself and others in mind. These rides are intended to be a safe space. No hate or bigotry allowed but just don’t be a d*ck and be kind. We are all going through something so respect others and treat people like you’d want to be treated. Come out and have fun because we’re all just big kids on bikes.

🛼⚔️ Fantasy Medieval Skate Quest! 🏰🐉 Bridge City Skate is a local skate group that hosts weekly community rollouts around Portland. This July, we invite you to embark on a Fantasy Medieval Themed Skate, an evening of adventure, costumes, and wheel-powered questing around the waterfront. While the event is led by skaters, all wheels are welcome as long as everyone follows our basic community guidelines: be respectful, inclusive, and kind. No discrimination of any kind. Come as a princess, peasant, knight, rogue, wizard, dragon, faerie, mushroom, or enchanted broomstick. Whatever your character, bring your courage (and knee pads). This Social Skate is a relaxed 4.5-mile cruise around Portland’s waterfront, complete with story stops, dramatic die rolls, and a quest that unfolds as we skate. - Meet-Up: 7:00 PM
 - Location: South Meade St. & South Bond Ave. - Roll Out: 7:30 PM sharp
 - Theme: Fantasy Medieval, think cloaks, crowns, fake swords, and glittering potions The route includes the Tilikum Crossing and the docks on the east side. Both areas have handrails to help go down, but the ability to navigate hills is highly recommended. If you have no city skate experience we recommend you start with BCS's Sunday Flatground Skate instead. Costumes are encouraged (bonus points for foam weapons and magical accessories), but not required, just bring your sense of humor, your sense of wonder, and wheels that roll. The realm is in peril… and only you can complete the quest. 🧙‍♀️✨

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, riding every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic party-paced “rolling dive bar” of a ride for newcomers and regulars alike. Most rides will feature park and store stops, but come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. New leadership, same positive vibes. While you might expect some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct, and if you’re banned from any Shift rides, TNR isn’t for you. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. Riders should practice 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 at 7:30. ✨Be an Empowered Bystander✨ See something off? Step up in a way that feels right for you: 🗣️ Direct: If it's safe, say *That's Not Right* for TNR. 🎭 Distract: Change the vibe and give them an out 🙋🏽 Delegate: Get help from a ride leader or trusted friend ⏳ Delay: Check in with the person afterwards 📝 Document: Write down what happened

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!

Educational ride, taught by a bicycling traffic instructor. I’ll assign you to trivia teams, and quiz you on bicycle safety. If we have a small group (5 people or less), we'll do all the trivia at the starting location. If we have a larger group, we’ll ride for short periods, and stop in various parks to do trivia questions, ending in the inner east side. You’ll leave this ride knowing how to recognize and avoid the top cause of bicycle crash (the right hook), and bicycle fatality (unsafe passing), as both a cyclist and a driver. It’ll help your trivia team if you read your Drivers Manual in preparation: https://www.oregon.gov/odot/forms/dmv/37.pdf It'll help if you review bike safety at: https://portlandbicycleschool.com/driving-around-bicycles/ This is a slow ride, paced for people learning to bicycle, and families with children. No one will be left behind. We’ll take bike lanes and greenways, to minimize interactions with drivers. Because Portland’s bicycle network is incomplete, there may be short, necessary portions of sharing larger roads, and we’ll stay together as a group for safety. This is a BikeLoud event. Bikeloud is Portland’s volunteer bike advocacy organization.

Ride naked to support body freedom. And protest highway construction, and the lack of bikeway construction. We'll ride the bikeways of N and NE Portland, and look at places where improvements can be made. Ends at Coe Circle, meets the Sunny Naked Ride. We'll have moments of silence where bicyclists and pedestrians have been killed in the last 12 months.

It's hot! Let's ride naked! This is a Ride2Ride - R2R - R2R - R2R - WNBR ride. We start at Irving Park, roll to Coe Circle for the noon ride, roll to Forest Park for the 3:00 ride, roll to St Johns for the 7:00 ride, then roll to Grant Park for WNBR. Bring protest signs on your bike. Enjoy the privilege of free speech and the right to assemble peaceably to seek redress of grievances. Ours in this country since 1773.

We meet at a different park in Portland every Saturday all year morning at about 9 to talk about home repair, travel plans, obscure board games, insects, etymology and sometimes bikes. Coffee Outside is often a meeting or starting point for adventures, day rides, group food cart rides or other outings. Bring a means to make coffee or some sort of coffee-adjacent beverage, or not. Instant chai? Perfect. A canned coffee beverage from the bodega? Legit. A special small batch blend of beans roasted in your neighborhood roastery that you measure by weight (portable scale, naturally) hand-grind in your titanium grinder before making a slow pour-over using hand-made paper filters and perfect temperature water? Sure, go for it. Baked goods are always appreciated but not at all required. Uniform? Nope. Fancy bike? Nope. Racing or ultra bikepacking chops? Nope. We enthusiastically welcome new faces and have no barrier to entry other than being your authentic self and leaving any bad/aggro attitudes at home. We post the location every Thursday on the PDX Coffee Outside website, which our friend Chris updates, and our Instagram account.

This will be a high traffic road ride like the previous ones. The goal is to bring cyclists together and show our government officials across Washington County, including Washco, Beaverton, Hillsboro, Tigard, Bethany, and beyond that even though we're in the suburbs, our community is full of cyclists who deserve safe infrastructure too. Our leaders need to work together! We need infrastructure that makes riders and families feel safe—because when people feel safe, more will ride! All people and all wheels are welcome! Always stick to riding in the right lane. ------------- The party will kick off at Cascade Bikes in Beaverton at 9am! The closest Max station is the Beaverton Central Max stop (the round). We will depart at 10am and ride en-masse to Hillsboro, ending at the Hillsboro Farmers Market. The closest Max station at the end will be the Hillsboro Central/SE 3rd TC Max stop. The ride will be approximately 10 miles with a bathroom break near the middle. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51732700 ------------- This ride will abide by and follow the Shift Code Of Conduct. We are here to celebrate cycling in the West Suburbs, not to antagonize drivers, however we will be corking our ride to ensure the safety of our riders. What is Critical Mass? A mass bike ride and party-protest in cities all over the world, started 30 years ago in San Francisco! Critical Mass bike rides are not just about cycling, it's about reclaiming public space, celebrating community, and making a statement for sustainable urban living. Streets are not just for cars and large group rides help to assert bicyclists' right to ride in the streets and celebrate the bicycle as a form of transportation. There is strength and safety in numbers What is corking? Corking is when you use your bike & body as a wall to ensure the ride can pass through an intersection safely, to keep the group together. Remember, strength and safety in numbers! This ride may not be suitable for small kids on their own bikes as we may be on busy roads with traffic.

Ride Westside

Join the Highland NAC for a guided community bike ride led by a local advocate passionate about Beaverton’s urban forest! As we pedal through key neighborhoods and green spaces, we’ll explore where City policies are helping—or hurting—our trees. Along the way, we’ll discuss the effectiveness of current practices, highlight areas of concern, and share ideas for protecting our urban canopy. The ride starts and ends at the same location and is followed by a no-host group lunch to Rico's Tacos across the street and picnic at Unity Plaza.

Meet at 11AM, roll at 11:30AM Calling all fans of Roman Mars - if you've wanted to know more about the streets and alleys of your city, this is the ride for you! My aim is to create a "99% Invisible, Live" experience. We'll explore the impact that human development and natural features have had on the streets of our city. Highways, streetcars, waterways, and housing development have all influenced the streets we ride our bikes on. This is not a "family friendly" ride per se (I don't know the first thing about leading a ride for tiny humans!) but children over the age of 12 might enjoy the content. I aim to share information at a middle-school level. We will ride at an 8-10 MPH pace and regroup at the top of hills. If you're interested in helping with sweeping and corking, please reach out to @architecturetourspdx on Instagram. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51334017

We'll ride about 5 miles together from the Vera Katz statue (just north of the Hawthorne Bridge) on the Eastbank Esplanade to Hail Snail (vegan cinnamon roll shop) for the Flip Side Vegan Market.

The Leif Erikson Trail is one of Portland's secret summer gems. 12 miles of bicycling on a shaded, north-facing forest road. It's a great place to be naked if you want cool shady conditions, and few onlookers. It's a steep climb up to Thurmon St to get to the trailhead, but from the start location for 12 miles to Germantown Road it's only moderately hilly, as the road mostly follows the contour lines. Packed gravel with rocks. It can be done on road bikes, but more comfortable with wider tires.
