The 70s Greenway is close to complete, and just this past week PBOT installed new concrete barriers on NE 72nd Drive where it ascends through Rose City Golf Course. This makes that road through the park bicycle and pedestrian only in the uphill direction. This 6-mile group ride covers nearly the entire length of the 70s Greenway starting from Mount Scott Park. This is not too far from the southern end of the greenway. On the ride you will see a way to safely get across SE Powell Blvd, as that is a crossing that PBOT (in conjunction with Trimet) has not yet completed. The ride ends at Rose City Grill, which is right next to those new concrete barriers. This is a great restaurant with incredible fries, plenty of indoor/outdoor seating, restrooms, and a great view of the park. Hope to see you on the ride!
