This will be an approximately 10 mile loop from downtown Beaverton to the Five Oaks neighborhood, and back through the Cedar Hills area. We'll be riding through several parks, and showing some useful connectors. This will be a slower paced, no-drop ride. There will be some gentle climbing near the end, but mostly flat. We'll be stopping for a bathroom/water break around halfway through.

Ride Westside

The 60s neighborhood greenway connecting Mt. Tabor Park to the Springwater Corridor was completed a few weeks ago. This group ride will follow the full 4 mile length of the greenway proceeding South from Mt. Tabor Park. At the south end of the greenway we will loop back north mainly following the 70s Greenway, which was installed a couple years ago. The ride is a near loop of 9 miles total length ending at the Hinterland Food Carts. This is a fairly recent food cart pod, just a block south of the SE Lincoln Greenway, and it has good bike parking in front. This being a greenway ride, all the streets will be calm with the busier crossings either having stop lights or signed and zebra-striped crosswalks. A feature of both the 60s and 70s greenways is that they are almost entirely flat, so any bike will do for the ride. The ride meets at the BIKETOWN station at the corner of SE 64th and Lincoln, and rolls out at noon. Hope to see you there!

Our instagram is nakedHeartspdx so you can see how we ride. Weekly themed rides. Different ride leaders each week, but you can expect the ride to be social paced (8ish mph), no-drop, safe and welcoming, store stop with safe clean bathroom access and the ride is always a loop. We practice consent and non-violence specially with car interactions, what one ride does affects how all rides get treated. The Mellow Mondays are a space for (new) ride leaders to try out ideas in a very supported environment. You’ll often see Mondays rides appearing again during the warmer riding season. We follow the shift code of conduct and expect everyone to be respectful of themselves and others around them. This is so we can actually relax and have fun and connect with each other in a softer space. This isn’t a sober ride but we ask for moderation to keep the atmosphere relaxed. We recommend Abraham Fixes bikes in N Williams and NomadCycles (e-bike specialist) for repairs/sales and parts. Our friends over at RideSafePDX host regular ride and we’ recommend those as a pleasant warm group to ride with.

Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, riding every Thursday night since 2015! Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic party-paced “rolling dive bar” of a ride for newcomers and regulars alike. Most rides will feature park and store stops, but come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists. New leadership, same positive vibes. While you might expect some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct, and if you’re banned from any Shift rides, TNR isn’t for you. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you. Riders should practice consent, accountability, respect, and de-escalation at all times. Stay behind the ride leader and don’t forget to thank a corker! 📍 Salmon Street Springs, every Thursday, rain or shine. 🕖 Meet at 7:00, announcements at 7:30.

Casual ride to art galleries for the First Friday Art Walk. First Friday Art Walk is a monthly tradition where art galleries stay open late, bring in artists, have free food, and have hands-on arts projects. http://firstfridaypdx.org/ Biking is the best way to get around to these wonderful galleries, as they're spread around inner SE/NE. We usually get to 5-8 galleries, depending on how long our group spends in each gallery. We'll stay out until ~9:30pm, then see if folks are up for a group dinner afterwards. Join for as many galleries as you like, and leave when you wish. If you have a sound system bring it! I love music on group bike rides. Ride details: 5-15 minutes of biking between galleries. Our ride is perfect for new cyclists and families with kids. We'll go at a slow pace so folks can socialize, and everyone can keep up. We'll use small neighborhood streets with minimal cars.

Find your bike Every Friday Night. We meet at Ladds circle, in the circle. If it is raining, head down to the covered area of Abernethy Elementary School. Ride slowly meets at 7 pm and departs roughly at 7:45/8ish pm. An honorary 3 minutes of Ladd laps (Ding Ding Ride/Ladd500) and then we send it. Sometimes we have guest ride leaders. Friday Night Rides are different every time. Sometimes we go to other rides happening around town during the summer. End of ride fires/good vibes/respect/no jerks/ We are a community. Respect each other! No aggressive, sexist, racist, or any other kind of BS will be tolerated. Violations against the code of conduct will be reported to shift2bikes. If you ride Sur-Ron/powerful electric bikes this is not the ride for you. You can come but you might be heckled. This is a bicycle ride. Bring lights/locks/responsible vibes/a cup/ Casual pace with some extra zip 10-20ish mile rides with store stops/park stops/art stops NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Be careful of slippery roads/leafs on ground/pot holes. Call out road hazards to help bike friends stay safe. 1st Friday is bottle share night. (bottle of wine/crazy beer/kombucha/coconut water/fizzy waters/anything you like to drink/want to share) 2nd Fridays are MMR - later night vibes to make it to Midnight Mystery Ride. If you want to lead a ride just ask! REPEAT… NOT NECESSARILY A NO DROP RIDE… ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL/WINTER/SPRING. Guest ride leaders wanted and appreciated! Instagram @fridaynightride

Cover Songs! David K. (California Ride) and Moorland will lead you on a casual ride around Portland. We'll be playing cover versions of popular songs. Think Tom Petty, Beyoncé, Johnny Cash, Soundgarden, Prince and Dolly Parton, with them both covering songs and covers of their songs. Only one song per artist and no covers of the same song, but this does have several covers of Beatles songs by different artists. What makes a good cover song? 1) It has to be good on it's own. 2) The song covered is popular enough to be recognized 3) The cover song has to sound different than the original. - Mellow Mondays.

Cycle Vancouver is a local group that brings together people in Clark County for rides, social events, and community involvement. Join us at our bi-weekly happy hour for good banter, food, drinks, and discussions on all things transportation. We meet at Tap Union Freehouse in downtown Vancouver every other Tuesday at 6:30. Come meet a new friend, riding buddy, or just kill the time and have a brew and food!
