    Portland’s street art culture is older than any of us, but until the past decade, the culture was a shadowy one. Thanks to support from a strong collective of street artists, the inner Eastside is the heart of the intense, passionate street art scene. Start in that heart, where we will safely fit you for a bike and helmet, ready for a sweet 4-6 mile/8-10 km ride to visit some of the oldest art forms and canvases (wheat paste and an incredible user-created skate park) and some of the newest (cool spray paint styles and brand-new buildings made for art). You’ll learn about graffiti culture and some of our long-time favorite artists and the city’s newest darlings, pass by or visit cool old import shops filled with art inside and out, learn how the art culture is connected to the protest scene, stop for a treat if desired, and leave with a phone packed with vibrant photos! Disclaimer: The description above was taken from the Around Portland Tours website (https://aroundportlandtours.com/bike/street-art-pdx-bike-tour/). I've been working for them this summer and specialize in this ride. It's awesome, and I want to share this as-professional-as-I-can-be, would-normally-cost-money, local tour experience with my friends and loved ones in the Portland bike community. If you do not have a bike, or want to bring someone without a bike, we will have bikes and helmets available to rent, but the ride itself is free. We also have some very cool people that work here, nice bikes for sale, super talented and smart mechanics, and some truly wonderful shop dogs. After the ride, we'll meet at the WonderLove food carts for food and bev, and there MAY be a special guest DJ. If that sounds like your jam, I hope to see you there.
