CONTACT:Mick O
DESCRIPTION:Nov 5 Bike Train to Watch the Portland Thorns Crush the TBDs 
 \n\n!!! Update on 31 Oct !!!\nTriMet is closing Washington Park/Zoo Max 
 station for an emergency preparedness drill.  We will not be able to start
  or ride through here. The Bike Train will start from the RoseQuarter/Moda
  Center.\n\nThe Portland Thorns have qualified for the NWSL Playoffs with 
 a home game on November 5. Kickoff Time is 4:00 PM with gates opening at 
 2:30 PM \n\nLet’s ride our bikes to cheer on the Portland Thorns FC in the
  playoffs!  We’re starting a Bike Train route to the stadium on gameday 
 with a few different points to join up depending on where you are coming 
 from. \n\nNote: Riding this Bike Train is Free\, but if you want to get 
 into the stadium\, you'll need a ticket. It's not included in this ride. 
 E-bikes and kids are certainly welcome. The pace will be "social" but we 
 will have a timetable to keep\, so keep that in mind. \n\nOur Bike Train 
 will start at the Rose Quarter in front of the Moda Center (Under the LED 
 events sign) and pick up Thorns fans who are coming from the North and 
 Northeast. Are you on the Eastside? Can you make it to Laurelhurst Park? 
 We’ll have a stop there next for you to join us (Northwest corner of 
 Firwood Lake)! From there we will make our way to the Ladd’s Circle Stop 
 for SE riders to get on board. The penultimate stop on our Bike Train will
  be Salmon St Fountain for anyone who just wants to ride with us for the 
 triumphant last stint up the hill to the stadium in time for doors to open
  and let us in.\n\nPreliminary timetable:\n\nDeparts from Rose Quarter: 
 12:45 PM (Under the LED events sign)\nDeparts from Laurlhurst Park: 1:15 
 PM (Northwest corner of Firwood Lake)\nDeparts from Ladds Circle: 1:45 
 PM\nDeparts from Salmon St Fountain  2:15 PM\nArrives at Providence Park 
 Gates 2:30 PM\nKickoff 4:00 PM \n\n\nIf you haven’t biked to the stadium 
 before\, there is a large patrolled bike parking area set up on \ngameday.
  There are storage lockers to rent for $5. (Maybe some of us can share 
 lockers and split the cost?) \n\nYou’ll need to find your way home after 
 the match. Let us know if you want advice on that.  Ride will happen rain 
 or shine -- within reason\, of course. A little rain won't stop this 
 train.\nMeet at 12:30\, Ride leaves from RQ/Moda Center at 12:45\, but you
  can join at any of the stops around the city. See timetable.\nEnds at
