Come one, come all! All Bodies on Bikes is hosting a Portland, Oregon Bike Summer ride on Wednesday, July 16 and we want to see you there!
Meet at Irving Park near the restrooms and covered picnic tables at 6 for some social time. When you arrive at Irving Park head over to the picnic tables to check out our All Bodies on Bikes Merch available for purchase and to sign our waiver.
We will begin the ride at 6:30 after a pre-ride talk. Expect a 6 mile ride with less than 100 feet of uphill riding and a stop at the half-way point which will be Peninsula Park. We will not exceed a pace of 8-miles/hour and will adjust the pace if folks would like to go a bit slower. This is a no drop ride, that means we will have designated folks at the back of the ride who will have the route and will not leave anyone behind.
The route is not quite a loop, we will end the ride at the wonderful @theathletic for an ice cream social to celebrate with folks heading to @joyride
All Bodies on Bikes is a non-profit on a mission to create a body size inclusive community, educate and change the bike industry, ensure access to safe and comfortable biking equipment, and celebrate joyful movement on a bicycle. We envision a world where anyone, regardless of body size, weight, or perceived fitness level can safely enjoy a bike ride in a way that is joyful to them.
We believe that all bodies are good bodies, all bikes are good bikes, and all rides deserve to be celebrated! As our friends at The Athletic say, we are all athletic!
Please reach out to @kornhausersauce or email kailey@allbodiesonbikes.com if you have any questions about the ride, or if you’d like to volunteer to sweep, cork, or provide mechanical support. We can’t wait to see you there!
