SUMMARY:Sensory Ride - Presented by Ride Safe PDX
CONTACT:Ride Safe PDX
DESCRIPTION:These rides are a space for those that would like to 
 participate in group rides\, but may have sensory challenges that can make
  it hard to participate\, or those that just prefer this type of 
 environment.\n\nLed by neurodivergent folx\, rides include a slow pace (6-
 8mph)\, lower traffic routes on neighborhood greenways\, quieter or no 
 music\, and conduct expectations around creating a more relaxed and 
 sensory friendly experience.\n\nThey will be held periodically throughout 
 the summer on Thursdays. Start locations will cycle around certain parks\,
  and the route from each start location will be consistent. Routes will be
  posted on the @ridesafepdx Instagram account before the ride.\n\nThese 
 will be no-drop rides\, bathroom access\, and always have the option to 
 pause the ride if anyone has needs.\n----\nExpectations:\n\nConsent is 
 required at all times. Ask before touching people or their 
 property.\n\nKeep the environment positive\, and be cognizant if your 
 behavior makes\, or may make others uncomfortable. Please tell a ride 
 leader if someone causes stress.\n\nWe will alternate between music and no
  music. If we do have music\, it will always be softer music at a lower 
 volume. No music/speakers at all outside of the ride leader.\n\nKeep 
 talking volume levels lower and consistent\, and avoid sudden noises. Bell
  ringing should be reserved for alerting to issues (we can talk/wave to 
 people we pass)\, and don't use electronic sounds. We will still use 
 verbal bike safety cues.\n\nBe cognizant of scents and no smoking or 
 vaping at all while riding (even in the back)\, or in noticeable proximity
  to the group at the start or on stops.\n\nPlease no alcohol consumption 
 during the ride.\n\nBe conscious of others and give as much space as 
 possible. Always stay behind the ride leader. No racing\, tricks\, 
 swerving\, weaving in/out of the group\, etc.\n\nKeep bike lights solid on
  lowest brightness\, or off. No bright or flashing lights. \n\nPeople can 
 be as social as they choose to be\, or not at all. We will have wrist 
 bands for those that wish to not be approached by others.\n\nAll shift 
 code of conduct rules and bans also apply.\n\n----\nPresented by Ride Safe
  PDX. We're working to make the Portland bike community safer\, more 
 welcoming\, and more inclusive. Find us on Instagram @ridesafepdx.\nMeet
