Bike Happy Hour

*not a ride* Four people presenting about bike touring. Come vicariously enjoy tales and photos from travels. Bike Touring is a great way to see the world. You are in your own air space. You can see things, smell things, hear things, enjoy the sun, wind, and rain firsthand. It's also affordable, fun, and can make your body feel great. The lineup: Back Roads of Morocco 2019 Sean Pliska (2 weeks) Riding the smallest roads on the map in the wilds of Morocco. Sean had a group of friends that would visit a far flung corner of the earth for a week or two each year. And make a fantastic video recap. Circumnavigating Taiwan. 2024 Emily and John Russell (1 month) Riding around the perimeter of the Taiwan. This was Emily's second bicycle tour. And John's 74th. Out my back door in Vermont. 2015 Andrew Stringer (1 week) Wandering around backcountry Vermont without much of a plan. And possibly inadequate gear. Do you really need adequate gear? Or can you just launch up your street and see where your legs take you. We'll find out. Three-day Gifford Pinchot Loop. 2024 Das and Jeremiah (3 days) Leaving from their back doors in Portland, a loop up through Battleground, WA, over Old Man Pass to the Wind River, down to Carson, WA, and down the Columbia River back to Portland East Coast Bike Tour – Maine to North Carolina. 2017 Tom Howe (1 month) Passing through eleven Eastern US states following the Adventure Cycling Atlantic Coast Bicycle Route.

Yo! The days are getting longer and the weather isn’t freezing!!! Thank goodness, y’all! With this being said there’s no excuse to not come out and challenge yourself to new territory and meet some new folks. Always adventurous and always with a no-drop mentality. Take the MAX or bus if Beaverton seems too far!! We start and stop the ride there across the street!! All terrain types explored! Have fun! This will be about 14.5 miles and almost 800 feet of elevation. There is an iconic street we’ve never rode in almost 100 group rides and we’re going to change that tonight! We’ve rode part of it but not the iconic climb. Let’s do this!

Thursday! 1DTE ! What are you waiting for ? It is time to start riding bicycles again I have to be at SW Main & 1st Street for a 9am meeting, every Thursday, so be a good human and ride with me. And then you can 1) ride to your own job, 2) ride back home & bake bread or sweet treats 3) ride somewhere less fun than work. boo. If you need to be downtown by 8:30 then email me and I'll likely bump up the time 1/2 hour If you need to be downtown by 8:00 then start you own ride :) We'll meet at Holladay Park, ride west on Multnomah Blvd, turn left thru the TriMet street and cross the Willamette on lower deck of Steel Bridge.

Join us on the westside for Bike Happy Hour. Meet new friends and old, hang out, grab a beverage (alcoholic or not), grab some food, and let's talk bikes! Everyone welcome. Every 2nd and 4th Monday, 4:30 to 7 p.m. 2/10 and 2/24 3/10 and 3/24 4/14 and 4/28

Ride Westside

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.

Bike Happy Hour

To celebrate 100 bi-weekly rides we are going to host a spoke card bike chat event at BG's Food Cartel! (Same spot as the Westside Bike Happy Hour). We will provide the laminator and the sheets and you bring the ideas and markers/crayons/pens/blood or whatever else you wanna bring to make some art. Keep them for yourself or exchange them with friends! Hell, exchange them with people you meet at the event! This isn't a ride but we encourage you to take public transit, the location is right next to Beaverton Central MAX stop and about 4 blocks from Beaverton Transit Center, or even ride your bike there. We have many ideas for this year and hope to see you there and plan with us!

Do you get over-zealous and buy too many seeds this time of year? Do you have a box (drawer??) overflowing with packets of seeds that you’ll probably never plant? Do you wish you could buy 4 pumpkin seeds instead of 40? Bring those half packets or maybe expired seed packets and let’s trade! Definitely bring those delicata seeds that have been passed down through generations. Let’s talk plants and techniques and how the heck to keep your tomatoes from getting blossom end rot. We’ll ride bikes and find somewhere to sit down to chat and trade. Might be outside, might be a bar or cafe depending on the weather.

1st annual Pi Ride Come join us as we circle around Portland on a Maths Pi ride. We will explore the edges, lines and curves of the city as we experience riding our bicyles along the waterfront up curvy ramps and orbicular paths. This “numerical pi advocacy ride" will include: * play some recreational math games * chalk or paper provided for math games * a brief history of Pi and talk about how important Pi is for our banking and security systems. On one stop there will be an opportunity to write out as many digits of Pi as you wish/can. You bet, there will even be Awards given out for those who give it a try! We will start at the Portland Opera House. The ride will be about 3.14 to our destination along the waterfront. Easy to moderate, we will keep a meandering pace on this No-Drop, curvilinear ride— a circular ride as we will end where we began For anyone interested after the ride your hosts, Michael and Naomi, will be heading for a delicious Pi-licious Pizza slice (location tbd). What to bring: * If you have it— Your nerdiest MATH themed attire. * cash for if you decide to join us for pizza On-street parking available if you are driving in.
