*UPDATE! It's going to be warm this weekend! The high at 12 noon on Sunday will likely be around 85 degrees F. But since this is a Climate ADAPTATION Ride, we will adapt! Make sure to wear loose fitting clothing, bring lots of water, and feel free to bounce at any point.* Join us for our 3rd Annual Climate Resilience & Adaptation Ride. Scheduled for the end of the summer, we promise to ride - heat, rain, or wildfire smoke be damned. As we have done in previous years, we will meet at the Salmon Street Fountain and have a few stops: we will discuss common climate calamities and how to be prepared, including what emergency essentials to keep in your home or in your Go Bag. We'll also explain Portland's unique community emergency response program (Portland NET); and how getting to know your neighbors might be the most important thing you can do to build your own resilience. And we will stop for ice cream :) Link to the ride route is below. This ride will be led by actual Portland NET members and we encourage other NETs and anyone interested in that training program to join us. See you in August!

End location: Cartlandia
This city staff-led ride will explore Portland’s Johnson Creek. Portland’s Bureau of Environmental Services (BES) has been working for more than 25 years to reduce flooding and improve habitat and recreation opportunities along Johnson Creek. Their latest effort--the Springwater Wetlands and Floodplain Restoration Project--is a prime example of this. In additional to restoring 30 acres of wetlands and habitat in the Johnson Creek floodplain, BES and the Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) partnered to build a bicycle and pedestrian path that connects the Powellhurst-Gilbert neighborhood to the Springwater Corridor Trail near SE 115th Ave. This ride will cruise down the Springwater Corridor to take a “ribbon-cutting” ride on the new path. We’ll view a few other truly impressive water management projects on the way, hear briefly from knowledgeable speakers and then end at the Cartlandia food cart pod for talk, food and drink. This will be a fun, picturesque and informative ride showcasing the benefits of city bureaus working together to create great projects that serve Portlanders.

wear an inflatable costume and ride a bicycle. It's much easier if your costume doesn't cover your face. but I might rock a T-Rex so don't ride so close to me. plan ahead, super easy to find costumes online. :) this will be one of your best summer memories for sure! We will ride to Grilled by Bike to eat their lunch, then ride to Irving Park for Kidical Mass and Ice Cream on Mississippi !! Were you at Pioneer Courthouse Square on Friday June 24, 2022 wearing an inflatableT-Rex costume setting a world record? https://www.instagram.com/p/CfRwcZcJdcg/ Still have your costume & notice how forlorn it is just sitting there? Have you ever wondered if it is possible to ride a bicycle in an inflatable costume? I have. And then I googled it. Much to my surprise, there are some people out there that have already ridden a bike in their inflatable T-Rex costume... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOumG6HS-rY So, are you gonna live the entire summer without showing people how truly awesome, fun, and perhaps foolish, you are? Right!! I didn't think so. Have you still not ridden across the Blumenauer Bridge?? If you have, now you can do it in costume ! if you know Chris Guillebeau, would you please let him know he inspired me ! Need a costume? I bought my inflatable costume on Ebay for $44 bucks from someone in San Francisco, so it got to PDX in just 3 days so you have time to order yours! maybe get yours on ebay or some other online place. there are so many to choose from !! search online for "inflatable costume" and be amazed !. Please also email if you have questions. Bring Your Own Tape if you fear your rear wheel will eat your tail. ride at your own risk! but we will be riding at Parade Pace!

Celebrate the last weekend day before school starts by riding to get vegan ice cream on Mississippi Avenue with other kids and families as part of Kidical Mass PDX! We will ride from Irving Park in NE on this free, family-friendly, kid-paced bike ride. We’ll start at the Irving Park at 2pm, and ride 1.5 miles to a place on Mississippi Avenue where you can get Ice Cream. This is the last Sunday before school starts for PPS, so this is a great time to ride was a family before we switch to Bike Bus season! Meet at 2:00pm, ride at 2:15pm. The ride is a flat 3 mile loop, so it is suitable for most young bike riders who can pedal their own bike without training wheels. We will stop for a while to get ice cream. This ride is free, but bring money to get ice cream. We will ride at a slow pace for little pedalers and parents on cargo bikes. Kids should wear a helmet, be able to balance and pedal in a straight line, start and stop. Cargo bikes, tandems, trailers and tag-a-longs are great for kids who haven’t learned to pedal. Adult corkers are welcome to join as a traffic safety superheroes. We’ll ride together as a group, rain or shine, because kids are traffic too! Map: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46718270

On hot days, the nights are wonderfully warm. There are few nights like this, with ideal bike-riding weather. I love night-time bike rides, as there are less cars, and the city is beautifully lit. We'll meet at 10pm at the Vera Catz statue at the East Bank Esplanade. The Vera Catz statue is just north of the Hawthorne Bridge, and just south of the intersection of SE Salmon St & East Bank Esplanade. We start riding at 10:30 pm. We'll ride up and down SW Downtown, starting at 1st Ave, and increasing the Avenue number. Each street is beautiful and different, with great views. If we finish those streets, we'll ride up and down NW. We'll stop at Insomnia Cookies (has vegan options). We'll have a second 15 minute social stop elsewhere. When we're done riding around midnight or 12:30am, we'll head to Sunee Thai and Lao Kitchen (SE 14th & Stark, 1400 SE Stark St, 97214). It's open until 4am and vegan-friendly. Riders are welcome to share a meal there. This will be a slow ride, paced for people learning to bicycle, enjoying scenery, and socializing. No one will be left behind. We’ll stay together as a group for safety.

End location: Ride is always a loop
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. A method to mount your phone to your bike will allow you to see the sketch in progress hands-free, which is more interactive, but not absolutely necessary. Tech notes: Bike-A-Sketch is a web-app that runs in the Safari or Chrome browser, and needs access to your location. - On iPhone: Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > Safari Websites and choose While Using the App and enable Precise Location. - On Android: Go to Settings > Apps > Chrome > Permissions > Location > and choose Always. Now when you load Bike-A-Sketch it should ask for access to your location. Choose Allow. During sketch sessions, try to keep Bike-A-Sketch in the foreground and your phone unlocked for smooth lines. Part of a series. Bike-A-Sketch 2: https://www.shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-21641

I mustache you a question: Would you like another mustache ride? Well we're gonna have one on Monday the 25th of August. This will be a 6 ish mile ride in SE PDX ending at a sloped grassy field near Mt Tabor. There will be one store stop at the Safeway on Hawthrone. This is a no-drop party-pace ride (10ish to 12ish mph). We will have treats that are hard to eat if you have a mustache! Feel free to bring your own to share. If you were there last year, this should be a pretty familiar experience. This ride is for both mustache havers and mustache appreciators. Everyone is welcome! No one will be turned away for lack of mustache, but we will have stick-ons for the willing.

ALL DAY
12:00 AM
3rd Annual attempt to eat as many tacos in the Portland area as possible in a day! Self organize to decide where to roll and what spots to hit... It lasts ALL DAY Tuesday August 26th. NO SPECIFIC MEET-UP, ROUTE or END LOCATION. The ride is up to you! We love tacos. Portland has HUNDREDS of taco shops. That makes THOUSANDS of tacos available in locations liberally distributed throughout all 6 quadrants of our city EVERY. SINGLE. DAY! Roll up and celebrate glorious tacos and appreciate taco makers. Reign of Taco Ride encourages supporting local and family owned businesses and hopes you'll take this opportunity to try unfamiliar/new and non-franchised spots. Log the progress of your delicious adventure! https://tacoapp.verynice.party/ → offers the ability to track your progress, and adds a competitive edge for taco teams: Points are awarded for each spot, bonus for being the 1st party there and/or for eating all the tacos on the menu. Steps: 1. Log in to register your self/team 2. Use interactive map as a guide to find spots 3. Ride yer bike* 4. Log places you visit (marked by a team-colored flag) Include: -bike-ability and taco ratings, - descriptions, -photos! *or other self-propelled instrument of transportation, cause we’re tryna work up an appetite here! The application will be updated (Spots reviewed, and 2024 reviews/flags archived or removed) prior to the 2025 event... Organized chaos is the only way to eat this incredible array of fantastic food. We need whole squadrons of self-propelled taco lovers to realize this collective a'chomp'lishment! All the links can be found at: https://linktr.ee/reign_of_taco_ride We wish you many tasty moments and maximum taco satisfaction and hope you saved your Pedalpalooza Appetites! The Reign of Taco Ride is the brain child of Joshua Force. Before departing on a leg of a lifetime bike tour (current location Chile!), and in response to local, non-ethnic food events (Pizza Week etc.) he wondered: how could you A’chomp’lish all the tacos in PDX in a day?!? The uncanny idea flabbergasted Karl Freitag but we thought to loop in Adam Novotny to help us with this puzzling concept! He became our web-wizard: assembling a comprehensive list of locations and developing our, tried-and-tested, online team-oriented interactive map app! Karl launched a Discord server for communication between taco riders and to send us feedback. In our first year we collectively visited about half of the spots in the metropolitan area. Thanks to all the ‘23 and ‘24 riders!

Do you love CAKE (the band)? Do you love cake (the food)? Then you will love this ride madly. Roll along in your short skirt and long jacket while listening to the sweet, sweet tunes of Sacramento’s best export. We will go the distance, listening to CAKE’s entire studio album catalog, front to back. There will be a vibraslap! We will give away a tree! Ditch the stickshifts and safety belts, the long line of cars, and the unbearable carbon monoxide as you embrace your rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle and keep your wheels spinning round. There will also be a cake break! Bring a cake (or cake-adjacent food) to share at the park stop or at the ride finish to prolong the magic. We will have plates and forks but BYO to reduce waste. Also BYO trumpet. We’ll roll at a casual pace with re-groups so everyone can stick together for a ~14-mile ride. Park stop halfway through at Lincoln City Park (SE 135th and Mill). There’s one hill of size and a few short gravel bits. Come at 6pm if you want to tune in to 1994’s Motorcade of Generosity. Bring lights for your bike since it will get dark about halfway through. We will have two trailers, one towing a giant sound system and the other towing a giant papier-mâché cake which will hold actual cake inside it and display CAKE album visuals. Please reach out if you can help with corking. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51593205

FKA Twosday Road Rascals but a slightly different approach. Taking back 2sDay is here and we’re closing out Bike Summer with a ride every week! We continue the tradition that started at the picnic tables at Irving park years ago. The torch has been passed and we’re back! We’ll be focusing different end spots plus we’ll have new ride leads popping up thru summer so if you want to lead just ask! Tallbike paced with regroups and a real no drop mentality. Meets at the picnic tables by the tennis courts or under the covered area if it rains. Meet around 7 for a 7:45 roll out! If you’re banned from other rides don’t come on this one. Pretty simple. Don’t be rude to others on the ride and traffic or pedestrians, respect people’s space consent and possessions. We strive to make this a safe place for all and welcoming to everyone 🖤🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✊🏽

Bridge City Skate is a local skate group that hosts weekly community rollouts around Portland. 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 sort. Do you dream of being both fashion-forward and dangerously off-key? Do you crave the thrill of skating under the stars in a top that’s 30% fabric, 70% attitude? Then step right up, because Bridge City Skate is serving vocals and vibes at our most unhinged theme skate yet. Bring your most chaotic crop-top creation—shredded, bedazzled, duct-taped—whatever screams hot mess express. Whether you're belting ballads, screaming punk, or just skating by while someone else sings Nickelback with full sincerity, this night is for you. Crop tops encouraged. Singing optional. Screaming inevitable. - Meet-Up: Tuesday August 26th at 7:00 PM - Location: South Meade St. & South Bond Ave. - Roll Out: 7:30 PM sharp — as sharp as your midriff tan line. 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.

Leave at 7:30pm
This band has been my personal go to band during the happiest times and darkest times of my life. Their absurdity and pathos and deep, deep musical humor has shaped me as a person. Some people know this band for their Rock n Roll, their kids music, their TV themes, their Polka, their featuring in a mass of movies…..if you’re not familiar you can expect a journey of fun and understanding of that human condition. This is an exceptionally family and sensitive person friendly ride….in their decades of music and 20 or so albums there isn’t a single curse word or female derogatory term. At this point NakedHearts has lead around 350-400+ rides and been involved in supporting at least 100 others, that’s to say you’d think we’d be ok with being vulnerable but this band who I love hardly ever shows up on any playlist because it’s too personal, too close to my own heart and I’ve been too shy. But given the realization of how small I’ve made myself due to ongoing harassment I’ve decided to rip the band aid off. Haters are gonna hate. We practice consent and non-violence on all our rides. If you’re banned on other rides or from listing a ride you’re banned here too. If you can’t respect others body autonomy please don’t attend.

At this point it’s pretty much official that the wonderful Benno Boy has ridden his last ride. Last Saturday the 28th of June Benno Boy hit the Godzilla,King Kong and Gigantor of Potholes at SE 39th and Stark on the way to @biteonbelmont. After 22755 Miles and 8 wonderful years of Riding all over Portland Oregon, nearly 1000+ Group Bike Rides and probably around 300-400 Ride Leads during Pedalpalooza and Afterpalooza plus probably 2000 rides to Portlands Food Carts his frame gave up the ghost. I’m very sad to say Goodbye to my trusty steed as he had become a huge part of who I am. There will be a memorial ride to say goodbye and to welcome his successor on Wednesday August 13th (Mini Version) and Saturday August 23rd (Full Version) Thank you to all the incredible bike mechanics for keeping him running since he was purchased from The eBike Store May 4th 2017 you are heroes of the highest order. FYI - many of Benno Boys parts will live on in his successor. Thank you #bennoboy you will be missed. Benno Boys official last Bike Summer Ride Lead was the #BonbRelay on Friday June 27th. FYI - what does this ride include? If you know me my rides are equal parts of the following: Getting Lost (Get Lost Rides) Cool Streets (Streets that are not straight) Coolness or Hidden Portland Rides (Lots of Murals, Artwork, Colored Houses and fun found things) Light Brigade (Fun lit up rides) And Finally Foodie and Family Friendly Rides The Mini Memorial Ride will be a condensed (Mini) version of the larger ride on the 23rd staying in the inner city and wrapping up at the Duckworth Dock for a swim in the Willamette Please bring any photos and stories about Benno Boy

Music about fighting the system, Standing up for those around you, Pushing back on the ideas of conformity and passive acceptance. Attacking the corporate system and capitalism running out of control. NMA has gone through a maturing as they started in the early 80’s and their style and music has developed a lot over the decades. From driving drums, riffs and bass and all out ‘F$&@ this system’ punk yelling too more rounded vocals, lyrics and mature music that still clearly says, ‘F$&@ this system’. This band has meant the world to me personally and has a profound influence on my political and personal views. They speak directly to the experience of growing up in the post industrial depressed region of the North of England. They constantly talk of the beauty and mysticism of the Moors and the windswept hills in comparison to the valleys where factories and mills reduce people too nothing but cogs in a machine that doesn’t value them. They draw the gaze too fighter jets practicing low level bombing in the Lake District and its incongruousness to the beauty of the region, they speak of run a ways escaping dire home life and tattooing themselves to fit in, the plight of immigrants, the giving of oneself sexually just to feel at least for some time a sense of being loved, the lost of friends to illness and addiction, the prevailing mental health impacts on a society forced to conform too working endlessly only too afford nothing but a pissed up weekend a moldy flat and little hope in anything but to keep your head down and don’t rock the boat… I love this band. This ride is a continuation of the effort to cast of the ‘being small’ feeling that harassment has caused me personally and in wanting to limit my self expression and joy so as not to be targeted more, but eff that. We practice consent and non-violence on all our rides. This ride has raucous music but being aggressive towards others on the ride with riding style or drivers is totally unfitting the spirit of this band and you will be asked to moderate your behavior or leave.

TNR #543: John Russell’s Bachelor Party
Thursday Night Ride
Thu, Aug 28, 2025, 7:00 PM
Meet at 7:00, announcements at 7:30, leave after “Beer Minutes.”
End location: Not a loop, but usually with a fire.
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
⛲️ 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!

Motörhead. What can you expect? Theme: The legendary Motörhead vs all other Rock. Playlist will have LedZepplin and punk pre-cursors to Motörhead and also the legions of bands inspired by Motörhead like Metallica and Slayer. Is Motörhead the best hard rock band ever? Absolutely not but there is something about their attitude and music that is amazing. Anti-Authority, encouraging self realization, fierce anti religion and anti nationalism and all at a tempo that makes techno seem sedate….and an intensity that grips the heart and pumps the adrenals. Lemmy is one of the most loved musicians ever. Route, will adjust depending on weather but there will be a store stop and the route will be a loop. Just because the music is rock doesn’t mean bad behavior is acceptable. Mosh pit rules apply. Get your freak on but don’t mess with others and the stronger amongst us protect those who need it. Banned riders are banned here.

Les Clown Hyper de PDX present the first annual "Karen Hates Us" Pedalpalooza ride. Join us for a 2-hour hyper speed ride around the Willamette, Central Eastside, and Lloyd Center. Music featured will be fast, unpredictable, potentially annoying, and will most definitely, unequivocally piss off the Karens. For example: https://youtu.be/t7tbkIH9W1U?si=d1NwGItzWBpG1N2U Bring a UE Boom speaker and join the sound system. Bring a megaphone if you need to yap or yell or anything. Feel free to costume as your favorite speedy clown 🤡.

Since I don't see one posted (I might have just missed that connection myself) I am posting this ride this year. Did you meet someone awesome at Loud n Lit but couldn't really hear them for their number? Were you too shy on the naked ride to ask that cutie for their digits? Did you dance the night away at contra but miss a dance with that one person? Or like your ride leader get wrapped up in a conversation and then bail on the ride bc it's getting late but forget about contact info for your new friend until you're halfway home? Note, this isn't specifically a singles looking for love ride (those exist and you should go to them if that describes you) this is for all missed connections. To accompany the theme we will visit several transit stations and sigh heavily when the train/bus has just left. We will (hopefully) not miss the connection to the Queen and Bowie ride, while the plan is not to merge with this ride the route will take us past their gathering location hopefully just as they begin to gather, so mayhaps you could make 2 connections in 1 night...

Meet at 8 and wheels at 9!
The first and only annual Eurodance-party and closing Pedalpalooza celebration ride! The best and silliest genre of music ever created erupted from Europe in the late 80s and early 90s and took over every corner of the world. This will be a celebration of that pinnacle of human musical creation and riding bikes with your friends. Featuring artists such as Corona, La Bouche, Vengaboys, Aqua, Cascada, Ace of Base, and MORE. Dress in your raddest party attire, 90’s futurism, classic rave wear, or whatever brings you joy. Featuring DJ Fancypants, Bumblecrow (Arcata, CA), and Special Guest Party pace, all wheels welcome, ~8 miles, store stop, and probably a midway dance party. I have one small sound trailer so all other speaker bikes feel free to join! Overlapping sound is a Pedalpalooza tradition! But please try to play tunes loosely within the genre (90’s-00’s Techno, House, Bass, etc.) Ride will not be a loop More details coming soon! Seeking more DJ’s with a love for the genre/era for end spot! The Shift code of conduct applies here! https://www.shift2bikes.org/pages/shift-code-of-conduct/ +If it’s not a heck yes it’s a heck no! +If you are banned from other rides you are banned from this one too! +Leave no trace! +Don’t be a jerk! The vibe is Loud n’ Lit, but its approximately ‘2001 🌠

Starts at about 9, people roll in and out through around 11
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.

Party Starts at 9, ride at 10am
End location: Hillsboro Farmer's Market
This will be on high traffic roads. The goal is to bring cyclists together and show our officials across Washington County, including 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 near 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 12.5 miles with a bathroom break near the middle. Check it out here: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/52351906 ------------- 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 SF! 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.

I’m very sad to say Goodbye to my trusty steed as he had become a huge part of who I am. There will be a memorial ride to say goodbye and to welcome his successor on Wednesday August 6th (Mini Version) and Saturday August 23rd (Full Version) Thank you to all the incredible bike mechanics for keeping him running since he was purchased from The eBike Store May 4th 2017 you are heroes of the highest order. FYI - many of Benno Boys parts will live on in his successor. Thank you #bennoboy you will be missed. Benno Boys official last Bike Summer. Ride Lead was the #BonbRelay on Friday June 27th. FYI - what does this ride include? If you know me my rides are equal parts of the following: Getting Lost (Get Lost Rides) Cool Streets (Streets that are not straight) Coolness or Hidden Portland Rides (Lots of Murals, Artwork, Colored Houses and fun found things) Light Brigade (Fun lit up rides) And Finally Foodie and Family Friendly Rides Join us in the Morning for the Portland Farmers Market Ride at the Portland Opera at 10:15am

Wrap up Bike Summer in style! Celebrate the summer that was by dressing up in an outfit that represents your favorite Bike Summer ride. Maybe it's Loud N' Lit? Maybe it's the Cat Ride? Maybe the Cone Ride? Whatever it is, come out and show it — and its leaders — some love. Reminder: This is *NOT* a naked ride. If one of the naked rides was your favorite, we invite you to get creative, but all private bits need to be covered. ---- Ride Safe PDX is a queer-led group that's working to build an inviting, inclusive, and welcoming bike community. We practice consent and follow the Shift2Bikes Code of Conduct. All wheels welcome, including e-bikes and skates. Find us on Instagram @RideSafePDX.

Portland’s street art culture is older than any of us, but until the past decade, the culture was a shadowy one. Thanks to support from a strong collective of street artists, the inner Eastside is the heart of the intense, passionate street art scene. Start in that heart, where we will safely fit you for a bike and helmet, ready for a sweet 4-6 mile/8-10 km ride to visit some of the oldest art forms and canvases (wheat paste and an incredible user-created skate park) and some of the newest (cool spray paint styles and brand-new buildings made for art). You’ll learn about graffiti culture and some of our long-time favorite artists and the city’s newest darlings, pass by or visit cool old import shops filled with art inside and out, learn how the art culture is connected to the protest scene, stop for a treat if desired, and leave with a phone packed with vibrant photos! Disclaimer: The description above was taken from the Around Portland Tours website (https://aroundportlandtours.com/bike/street-art-pdx-bike-tour/). I've been working for them this summer and specialize in this ride. It's awesome, and I want to share this as-professional-as-I-can-be, would-normally-cost-money, local tour experience with my friends and loved ones in the Portland bike community. If you do not have a bike, or want to bring someone without a bike, we will have bikes and helmets available to rent, but the ride itself is free. We also have some very cool people that work here, nice bikes for sale, super talented and smart mechanics, and some truly wonderful shop dogs. After the ride, we'll meet at the WonderLove food carts for food and bev, and there MAY be a special guest DJ. If that sounds like your jam, I hope to see you there.

Architecture Tours PDX
Mon, Sep 1, 2025, 9:45 AM
Rolling at 10:05AM
Let's go look at some pretty buildings! This architecture tour is focused on ornamentation and materials. We'll look at vibrant decorations, and examples of different materials used over time for structures and exteriors. The 14 mile route goes through neighborhoods in NE, N, and SE Portland. We'll stop a few times to admire buildings, but otherwise the tour will keep rolling. There will not be a store stop. Pace: 8-11MPH. This ride is not a fast ride, and there will be numerous opportunities to regroup. That said, it is not a no-drop ride.

Ride is a loop
End location: Ride is always a loop
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.

For those of you who can't make it on Wednesday to Rainbow Plaza or for those of you who need a 2nd day of community building, or for those of you who like/love to drink wine... I present to you a weekly Tuesday event at Bar Botellon ! just three blocks from Blumenauer Bridge! $2.00 tapa with every glass of wine purchased. https://barbotellon.com/tapas - tapas menu ! https://barbotellon.com/drinks - wine menu & other drinks :) Join other bike-minded folks for good wine, great tapas, and Spaniard vibes on the corner of NE 6th & Davis at Bar Botellon every Tuesday from 4-8pm (or so). Tapas Tuesday, inspired by Bike Happy Hour on Wednesday, is a place where anyone can show up and be embraced (not literally, unless you're a hugger!) by our wonderful community. Just show up and hang out. That's it! All ages are welcome but there is only street parking and bike racks where you can park bikes and displace cars if you want. No coloring books (sorry Jonathan :/ ) or crayons for the kiddos, but feel free to bring your own activities: puzzles, chess, games, GUITARS, castanets, whatever! Happy Hour will get you a $2.00 tapa with each glass of wine purchased

Meet 6:45 roll out 7:45ish
End location: Central
FKA Twosday Road Rascals but a slightly different approach. Taking back 2sDay is here and we’re closing out Bike Summer with a ride every week! We continue the tradition that started at the picnic tables at Irving park years ago. The torch has been passed and we’re back! We’ll be focusing different end spots plus we’ll have new ride leads popping up thru summer so if you want to lead just ask! Tallbike paced with regroups and a real no drop mentality. Meets at the picnic tables by the tennis courts or under the covered area if it rains. Meet around 7 for a 7:45 roll out! If you’re banned from other rides don’t come on this one. Pretty simple. Don’t be rude to others on the ride and traffic or pedestrians, respect people’s space consent and possessions. We strive to make this a safe place for all and welcoming to everyone 🖤🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✊🏽
