Meet on the east side of the station, on the side nearest to Target. Note that Google Maps will show Target as the location, the station is just west of there. Of course, if you took the MAX, you need not worry about this.

Meet at 6:30, ride at 7 PM. Sunset ain't gonna wait for us.
9:30 PM
End location: A mystery!
Ride length: 3-8 miles
Did you know that on the night of the full moon, sunset is usually right before the moon rise? Let's hit up a spot where we can watch both! Stock up on snacks and libations before meeting up, then depart on a chill, slow-ish paced 5-mile (give or take) ride to our mystery destination. Ride not a loop. Lights, layers, and a picnic blanket are good ideas. Extra credit if you bring a telescope or good binoculars to observe the moon. Please note: THERE IS NO STORE STOP. There is a big-ass store at the start, so go there beforehand. There PROBABLY WON'T be open bathroom(s) at the end. Also: RIDE NOT A LOOP, we end where we stop. If you need help getting back to the start, let me know. THIS RIDE ENDS FURTHER OUT, A FEW MILES FROM TRI-MET. Please note this. And most importantly: THIS IS A GOOD CONDITIONS RIDE. Clouds, rain, smoke, and excessive heat may cancel the ride. Check the Shift calendar on the day of ride for confirmation. Sunset 7:57 PM, Sunrise 7:49 PM
