Pedal-KABOOM

PEDALPALOOZA KICKOFF RIDE DETAILS.

COME ONE COME ALL…

Celebrate Portland’s Bike Fun extravaganza by riding with your friends in to the night. Meet at Laurelhurst Park BY THE POND at 6 pm to Ride at 7. We will be there at 5 pm for a community potluck till the 7 pm departure time. Bring a dish, say hello to your fellow bike funnists and share a story of years past, along with goals for the future.

This is not a loop. Expect varied qualities of urban terrain, tracks in the pavement that can make you fall over, traffic calming techniques, confused automobile drivers, horizontal and vertical deflection apparati, and roadside swashbucklers dressed in blue. Directions back to Laurelhurst from the secret ending location are extremely easy and include one right and one left hand turn. Route is less that two hours and less than 15 miles.

KICKOFF this years festivities with a little style and sass, bring your feathered hat and most colorful underwear. Parade your way across our city with active transportation and inspire those who look upon your glory. Let’s see bright lights, dome protectors, glowing stuff, music machines, dingy bells, and a jug of your own fun. Costumes highly encouraged and safe cycling techniques are rewarded with survival.

Do not count on a beer stop. This is a LEAVE NO TRACE event.
