What'cha doin Friday night? Join the PDX Unity Ride for a chill ride and make some new friends! We start and end at Colonel Summers Park. Meet by the picnic tables on the SE Taylor Av side. From there, we'll head north on SE 16th, cut over on NE Irving St, then make our way across the Blumenauer Bridge (AKA Earl). We'll continue up 7th, cut through Irvington, then head back south via NE 26th and NE 28th. Store stop about 5.7 miles in. From there, we'll make our way down to Ladd's for a few laps, then return to Colonel Summers Park. We may make a brief second store stop near then end in case anyone wants more snacks. Route is 8.8 miles long. The route is generally pretty flat, but we'll make a couple gentle climbs and descents. Route link is below. Our first store stop is about a 1-mile ride from our start point, so it's a good spot to split off if you can't stay for the whole ride. We're looking at a chill pace of around 8-9 mph. We welcome *anyone* who supports the cause of queer and trans rights and liberation, regardless of your connection to the LGBTQ+ community. Come hang with us! ------ PDX Unity Ride is a queer- and trans-friendly cycling collective that's working to build community through a shared love of cycling. All LGBTQ+ folks and allies welcome. We welcome cyclists regardless of their skill level or ability. All bikes welcome, including e-bikes and adaptive bikes. Minors under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Masking encouraged indoors and when in close proximity to others. Please stay home if you're sick. We follow the Shift2Bikes COVID Plan.
