SUMMARY:R2R Vancouver -> kickoff : Themed ride with the not so Swedish 
 Chef    Bork?
CONTACT:Bryan "About Bikes" Watson
DESCRIPTION:This ride is for anyone wanting to ride as a group from 
 Vancouver\, across the interstate bridge through Delta Park\, and into the
  Bike Summer Kickoff Ride event that starts in Alberta Park @ 5PM (Kickoff
  Ride leaves Alberta Park at 6:30)\n\nWe are also responding to the call 
 out this year to "bring your whimsical side out with themes from you're 
 heart."\nAs your Ride Leader I be presenting my themed ego of the a 
 mumbler oriented version of the Swedish Chef from the Muppets.\nI 
 encourage you to come dressed up as well if you dare and do so safely\, 
 remembering we have moving parts that can entangle costume 
 components.\nLet's discover whether you are a Muppet of a person\, or a 
 Puppet of chaos.\n\nThis ride is ideal for the casual rider that wants to 
 become more comfortable navigating across the I5 Interstate bridge and 
 through Delta Park.  This route is keen on lower traffic pressure as we 
 utilize the cycling infrastructure the entire route\, featuring west side 
 of I5 along the Max line from the Expo Center\, and making use of the 
 Columbia Slough Train\, and the main line bike lain up North Vancouver Ave
  to cut over on NE Durham Ave to NE Ainsworth St.\n\nI led this ride last 
 year\, which was received well by a dozen of us.  Thanks again to 
 cyclevancouver.bike\, Jason and Israel\, for the patchwork on my flat we 
 had last year in Delta Park.  Just another example of the benefit of 
 traveling as a group. \n\nRide leaves a little early\, which gives you 
 ample time to chill grab a bite to eat and watch the crowds build for the 
 kickoff of event ride leaving at 6:30.\n\nCome join one of your Clark 
 County BPAC (bicycle and pedestrian advisory committee) volunteers for an 
 opportunity to give input on anything that's on your mind with cycling 
 infrastructure in Clark county.\nBeing early is also inline with my 
 Corking duties for the Kickoff parade.  So see you out there corking de 
 Bork Bork Cork De Bork as the Swedish Chef you got to know on the way over
  the river!\nMeet up at 3:30pm\, Ride out at 4:00 p.m.\nEnds at Alberta 
 Park\, 1905 NE Killingsworth St\, Portland\, OR
