meet at 8am, ride at 8:30.

End location: Cathedral Park
Get your gluten AND your glutes on! A morning tour of some of Portland's best sourdough bread bakeries. We'll meet in the miasma under the Franz bread sign to get in the mood, then ride down through SE Portland picking up loaves along the way at Little T and Tabor Bread. We'll head north to a Top Secret Mystery Location next, with our final bakery being Starter Bread in St. Johns. We'll collect a secret stash of (unmelted!) fancy butter and even MORE bread, culminating with a picnic at Cathedral Park in St Johns. I'll get a loaf from each bakery, but please bring some $$ to support the bakers and/or contribute bread or spread to share! Extra points if you baked it yourself. The ride is not a loop, about 18 miles with a couple of hills but nothing too bad. No-drop, social pace, but we'll limit stops to 20 min (so maybe don't order a complicated sandwich). If you want to stay longer (maybe you really want that complicated sandwich) you can catch up at the next bakery.
