This past weekend here in Portland was the warmest and sunniest in recent memory. There also happened to be tons of bike rides and other events going on. In an attempt to make it last just a little longer, I thought I’d share a few photos of the adventures and good times had by readers and friends (and myself!).

Local graphic designer Gabriel Amadeus grabbed some friends and headed north on a 44-mile loop (route map here) that landed them on some fun backroads near Ridgefield Wildlife Area in Washington…
I rolled out to Sauvie Island on Sunday and enjoyed a nearly traffic free loop…
Lots of racers headed out to Amity, Oregon for the Piece of Cake Road Race. Photographer Nathan Wright captured some of the action…
Cycle Wild, a local non-profit that leads bike-camping trips from Portland, led a group out to Ainsworth State Park in the Columbia River Gorge (City of Portland has a PDF map of the route). Bike touring expert and photojournalist Russ Roca went along and captured some beautiful images…
And finally, Easter Sunday in Portland would not be complete without the Bunny on a Bike ride. The weather brought out bunnies of all ages for what looked like splendid group ride. Thanks to Greg Raisman for sharing the photos…
Let’s all keep our fingers crossed for more weather just like this!
