Solar System Ride
“We’ll start at the sun (scaled to a 26″ wheel) and ride to Neptune along the west esplanade, stopping at each planet to learn some nerdy planet facts.” 7 p.m. Tuesday.
Dead Baby Alleycat This race was rescheduled to Saturday but not yet updated in the Pedalpalooza calendar. Don’t show up Wednesday!
The Dead Babies are one of the Northwest’s most storied bicycle clubs; they’re hosting an alleycat race. Test your routing wits against all comers. “Fun and prizes.” 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.

I’m not certain, but I believe the Dead Baby bike club is associated with Seattle, not Portland. Is there a Portland contingent?
There is indeed a Portland group
Cool, thanks! Any chance you could provide a link where I (and others) could learn more?
They’re too busy building/riding/crashing bikes and drinking beer for internet links… I suggest showing up to their alley cat and chat ’em up about other club activities.
technically the local chapter’s bottom rocker says ‘Nowhere’
That’s only four now. Wednesday: train history (sw, council crest) or fixed gear laps (mt tabor).
Thanks for featuring the Monkey Puzzle Trees of NoPo ride, Michael! Here is a photo of my map for folks who can’t make it but are curious and/or if we get rained out: http://imgur.com/Xe6c3kN
