SUMMARY:Ride Westside - Gaston Tornado Siren Adventure Ride
CONTACT:WitchyWillow (via Ride Westside)
DESCRIPTION:Have you never heard an Outdoor Warning/Tornado/Air Raid Siren
  in your life? Or maybe you used to live in the Midwest and miss the 
 electromechanical harmony they produce! \n\nWell this ride will take us to
  Gaston\, located in beautiful rural Washington County\, about a 13 mile 
 ride\, with not too much climbing from downtown Hillsboro. They happen to 
 have an electromechanical siren (one that actually has moving parts\, not 
 a giant speaker) that they restored a couple years back\, and they test it
  every first Saturday at noon! It is a Federal Signal 3T22\, one of the 
 most iconic American sirens ever made. \n\nThis ride is an OUT AND BACK 
 format\, meaning we will be starting at Hillsboro Civic Centre\, heading 
 to Gaston\, and then heading back to HCC via the same way\, which is about
  26 miles round trip. We will try our best not to drop on this ride\, 
 however we cannot delay too much\, as the siren sounds sharply at noon\, 
 and there is only finite buffer time. \n\nAlso\, there is NO RELIABLE BUS 
 OR MAX SERVICE AFTER LEAVING HILLSBORO. This means that if you are riding 
 an EBike\, to make sure you have enough range\, and for anyone that your 
 bike is in good condition\, and that you have enough water and snacks\, so
  that you do not need to be "rescued" home. We will make some stops along 
 the way to carb up\, hydrate\, and enjoy the view! I do not recommend 
 children\, as the overall length is quite long\, however if you would like
  to bring children in the Westside\, consider looking at my Kidical Mass 
 rides.\nGather at 9:45\, roll out around 10:15\, and be at Gaston by 
 Noon\nEnds at Gaston Rural Fire Station (the out)\, Hillsboro Civic Centre
  (the back)\nhttps://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-23791
