SUMMARY:Lower Southeast Rising - BikeLoud PDX SE Chaper Ride
CONTACT:BikeLoud PDX
DESCRIPTION:The April monthly ride for the SE chapter of BikeLoud PDX will
  cover some new bike routes coming to southeast Portland later this year. 
 This ride will be a mellow\, conversation-paced ride about five miles long
  on calm streets. BikeLoud* rides are free and membership is not required 
 to join rides. The ride will be a near loop\, ending just a few blocks 
 from the Mount Scott Park start location. The end spot is the Portland 
 Mercado food court\, where we can enjoy some cycling comaraderie after the
  ride.\n\nThe title of this ride comes from a project called the Lower SE 
 Rising Area Plan. This plan being executed by the Portland Bureau of 
 Planning and Sustainability (BPS) covers the area of Portland to the south
  of SE Foster Road out to SE 92nd Ave. The plan includes bike network 
 improvements\, local street upgrades\, and a potential bus network 
 redesign.\n\nThe soon-to-be-completed bike improvements we will ride along
  are the 60s and 70s greenways\, both slated for construction in 2023. 
 Greenways are quiet\, slow streets that prioritize people walking\, 
 bicycling\, and rolling.\n\nThe 60s Greenway is 5.5 miles long and will 
 connect the Springwater Corridor with Mt. Tabor. We will ride the lower 3 
 miles of this greenway. The 70s Greenway will eventually extend all the 
 way up to Cully Park\, a distance of about 8.5 miles. We will ride just 
 the lower portion of this greenway\, combining it with the Springwater 
 Connector Greenway which was completed a couple years ago. \n\nIn addition
  to the greenways we will also be visiting Arleta Triangle Square\, a 
 public street plaza adjacent to Mount Scott Park that was completed last 
 year. This plaza is noteworthy for both its traffic calming effects and 
 its colorful pavement shown in the picture for this ride.\n\nWe hope you 
 come out to join! If you have any questions on this ride\, please message 
 the ride leader through the Instagram link below. \n\n* About BikeLoud
