Ride 7:30ish
End location: Pirate Island
A remembrance and celebration of one of Portland’s most loved cyclists Derek Johnson. The ride begins in Ladd's, gather 7ish, ride 7:30ish. We will be riding South through Reed. From there we will go to New Seasons for supplies. Then on to Willamette Park for a memorial with lanterns (bring a candle and anything for the alter if you'd like). The event for lantern memorial is here https://fb.me/e/3vCHRnZoJ. If you'd like to just do that portion it will happen around sunset. Lastly, we will ride to Pirate Island (aka The Slab) where there will be a celebration of Derek with DJs and dancing. Bring a shot glass or other container of you want to try partake in beverage sharing. If any of the details above change I will update the event ASAP. I will also try and share a tracking link for anyone looking to catch up to the ride ? Update: We will keep the Sellwood Park stop in our back pocket for if time permits. I'm a little worried we will be late to the lantern memorial if we make two stops before Willamette Park. Another update, new end spot is Verra. Ride location is shared in the link section.
