A highlight of the Winter for the cycling community. There’s the ride to the Xmas lights at PIR in early December (Tom Howe and NH), then Bianca’s, A Merry Techno Xmas ride, then this ride to the PDXWLF. It’s a beacon of light during the colder, darker months. The ride is very family friendly and feels like a blend of Loud n Lit and Portland Sunday Parkways. The ride itself is full of art bikes and people lighting up themselves for the festival as we are a rolling parade. There’s installations across the road at The Electric Blocks. Many things to see on the ride itself including a great dance performance at Directors park and at the end spot at WTC. But, we are an installation ourselves. A word of caution, a lot of us are experienced with how to handle tram tracks downtown, but even if you’re comfortable, please try and not cross parallel tracks because a cyclist might follow you who doesn’t have your technique and then wreck. As with all our rides we practice consent and non-violence. The few riders who’ve been banned from NakedHearts rides are requested not to attend.
