SUMMARY:CANCELLED: The Stark Street Swooper: Ventura to Multnomah Falls 
 via Dabney\, Corbett\, and Vista House
CONTACT:Mr.Multnomah
DESCRIPTION:Excessive Heat Ride to Far to risk any lives\, Moved over to 
 next week\nJoin us at 9:30AM for this exhilarating ride starting at 
 Ventura Park (460 SE 113th Avenue\, Portland\, OR 97216). Get ready for a 
 physics-defying\, adrenaline-pumping 40-mile journey that'll test your 
 limits and reward you with breathtaking views!\nRoute Breakdown:\nVentura 
 Park to Dabney:\nDistance: ~20 miles\nElevation: -100 ft net\nPhysics: 
 You'll convert potential energy to kinetic\, hitting speeds up to 40 mph 
 (17.9 m/s)!\nKinetic Energy: 12\,800 J for an 80 kg rider+bike at top 
 speed\nDabney to Corbett:\nDistance: ~8 miles\nElevation Gain: +1000 
 ft\nChallenge: Work against gravity\, building massive potential 
 energy\nCorbett to Vista House:\nDistance: ~7 miles\nTerrain: Rolling 
 hills\nPhysics: Constant energy conversion between potential and 
 kinetic\nVista House to Multnomah Falls:\nDistance: ~5 miles\nMostly 
 downhill\, speeds of 20-30 mph\nAir resistance becomes your main nemesis 
 here!\nMedical and Physiological Considerations:\nTemperatures could hit 
 the 90s (32°C+)\nYour core body temp might rise to 39-40°C\nSweat rates 
 can exceed 2 L/hour\nCardiovascular system will be working 
 overtime\nHydration and Nutrition:\nAim for 1-1.5 L of fluid per 
 hour\nTarget 60-90g of carbs per hour\nReplenish 500-2000 mg of sodium per
  hour\nPack energy gels\, sports drinks\, and easily digestible 
 snacks\nSafety First:\nHelmets are mandatory - protect that brilliant 
 brain!\nBright clothing and bike lights - be seen\, be safe!\nWatch for 
 signs of heat exhaustion: nausea\, dizziness\, rapid heartbeat\nKnow your 
 limits and the locations of bail-out points\nEnvironmental Impact:\nYou'll
  be saving about 35 lbs of CO2 compared to driving. Mother Nature thanks 
 you!\nRebel Rouser's Rally Cry:\nListen up\, you magnificent speed demons!
  This ain't your average bike ride - it's a test of will\, skill\, and 
 thrill. We're about to defy gravity\, challenge thermodynamics\, and make 
 Sir Isaac Newton proud.\nRemember\, when you're flying down Stark Street 
 at 40 mph\, you're not just a cyclist - you're a human rocket with 12\,800
  joules of kinetic energy! When you're climbing to Corbett\, you're not 
 just pedaling - you're sculpting your quads into works of art!\nWe ride as
  one\, we sweat as one\, and we conquer this route as one. When the heat 
 tries to break you\, remember: you're not just fighting the hills\, you're
  fighting the second law of thermodynamics - and winning!\nSo fill those 
 bottles\, load up on carbs\, and get ready to leave it all on the road. 
 Today\, we're not just cyclists - we're physics-defying\, heat-battling\, 
 road-conquering legends in the making!\nSee you at the starting line\, and
  may the force (both mechanical and motivational) be with you!\nNote: All 
 speeds and times are estimates. Always prioritize safety over speed\, 
 listen to your body\, and enjoy the ride!\n\nSolar Analysis\nGiven the 
 ride's duration from 9:30 AM to approximately 2:00 PM\, here's an analysis
  of sun exposure:\nStart (9:30 AM): Sun azimuth ~100°\, elevation ~30°. 
 Expect some direct morning sun.\nVentura Park to Dabney: Mostly shaded due
  to urban environment and tree cover.\nDabney to Corbett (11:00 AM - 12:15
  PM): Sun azimuth 135-150°\, elevation 60-70°. Increased exposure during 
 climb\, especially on south-facing slopes.\nCorbett to Vista House: 
 Rolling terrain provides alternating sun and shade.\nVista House to 
 Multnomah Falls (1:30 PM - 2:00 PM): Sun azimuth ~200°\, elevation ~65°. 
 Mostly shaded due to Columbia Gorge topography and forest 
 cover.\nOverall\, the route benefits from significant shade\, particularly
  in the Columbia Gorge. However\, riders should be prepared for intense 
 sun exposure during the Dabney to Corbett climb.\nLegal Disclaimer\nPLEASE

 mins i lag for. I'll ride alone no problem.\nEnds at Like there's buses 
 that go back to Portland but you're most likely going to need to sleep 
 there overnight. So if you're not don't think you can make it back I 
 suggest you get a ride and have a meet you 
 there.\nhttps://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-19594
