Sacramento has had their Appetite Enhancement Ride for 20 years now. It’s the biggest ride of the year for bikey folks, with a 3 hr party before and after.
Since Portland already has multiple 3 hr parties each week, I thought to do the first year as a downtown ride, since there’s no “ride the deserted streets on a major public holiday” rides here.
Weather forecast looks good, should be a great time to experience downtown Portland without air, noise and car pollution.
Thanks for reading.
