Join us for a celebratory summer ride across Portland, beginning at Flying Elephants Deli in the South Waterfront. Our journey kicks off at Zidell Yards, the proposed site of Portland’s future Major League Baseball stadium—to imagine what a transformed waterfront could look like. From there, we’ll cross the river via the car-free Tilikum Crossing, cruise through the Central Eastside, and wind southeast along low-traffic neighborhood greenways and bike-friendly corridors. The casual route spans approximately 6.8 miles and takes about 45–60 minutes, ending at Walker Stadium in Lents Park, home of the Portland Pickles. We’ll arrive in time to enjoy State Fair Weekend Night 2, presented by Mr. Plywood. Expect carnival games, fried treats, and a classic summer matchup as the Pickles take on the Ridgefield Raptors.
