I will attempt to be at the meeting location at 8, we do have places to be so we will leave at 8:30
End location: Ladds Addition
Let's do something stupid! (see other ride today) Deets: we will meet across the street in the grass from Beaverton Transit Center leaving promptly at 8:30am. We will be taking the Sunset Hwy Path in to Portland passing through Washington Park. We will descend to Flanders St all the way down to Naito. We will cross at the Hawthorne bridge and then it is a short hop over to the circle. This is by no means a perfect route but it is the one I prefer to lead a group on as it is the one I feel the safest riding of the options. There is a big hill to climb on the way to the zoo and then a long descent (so make sure you and your bike are prepared). We should have plenty of time though so do not worry if you think you climb slow. Note: The main event at Ladds is intended to be a family friendly team affair. The rules are very loose but please be respectful of the main event organizer, the event space, and other participants. If you are planning to stay in the circle for a while I recommend bringing things to help you be comfortable and to add to the party in the middle. I do plan to ride back in the evening after the event (and eating food) so if you are interested in tagging along for the return trip let me know.
