Meet at 1pm, Ride by 1:30pm
End location: Movie Madness (4320 SE Belmont St)
In addition to being the home of directors like Kelly Reichardt, Todd Haynes, Todd Field and Gus Van Sant, Portland has seen many critically acclaimed filmed here! This 90-minute ride will visit several streets, parks and local businesses where movies have been filmed. Learn more about where you live: about how actors like Nicolas Cage and Michelle Williams may have worked on a movie at that spot you ride by every day! This ride will visit 3-4 locations where both small and large projects have been made, with a brief explanation about each film at the stop. Our end point will be Movie Madness, a locally-owned video rental store with a mini-museum of film props. While movie madness has snacks and both non-alcoholic and alcohol drinks, there is a food cart pod one block away. Expect a no-drop, 8-10mph social pace. Route will be about 7-10 miles with a store stop, taking roughly 1.5 hours in total. We will ride to a playlist of movie soundtracks. All wheels welcome. While the route won’t be posted beforehand, feel free to ask the ride leader about specifics at Oregon Park or the store stop if you have questions. --------- This ride aims to be a safer space.
