    It’s tough to find good donuts after 10PM (even in Portland) but we were determined and managed to scarf dozens by traversing the city in search of holey pleasure.

    Our first stop was the legendary Annie’s Donuts on 72nd and Sandy. We swarmed our first box of donuts and once they were gone we set out in search of stop #2.

    Unfortunately our next stop, near Burnside and Grand was closed. Undettered and hungry for more, we headed across the Burnside Bridge and made our way to the one and only Voodoo Doughnuts.

    Voodoo, as always, did not disappoint. We ordered two buckets and passed them around, while karaoke from nearby bars filled the warm night air.

    After strapping the leftover donuts to Carl’s pannier rack, we headed North up Williams Ave. I split for home while the group rode to Tonalli’s on Alberta for the final stop.

    Many thanks to our fearless guide, Captain Pastry (seen here in costume).
