PSU Farmers Market Ride – 10:00 at SE Clinton St/41st Ave
An all-ages/all-abilities ride from SE PDX to the PSU Farmers Market to help support local farmers, bakers and makers of all kinds. This is a great opportunity to meet and develop community in a relaxed, informal setting.  Riders are welcome to leave at any point during or after reaching the farmers market. A post-ride adventure that is only loosely planned beforehand often follows – this weekend the ride will certainly meet with the BikeLoud SE/E ride. More info here.

Seltzer Squad Riding League Ride – 10:30 am at Paul Bunyan Statue (N)
This is a brand new club (organized via Strava) that will host moderately paced rides and provide a supportive space for people who are in recovery or who just want a space free of alcohol. Expect coffee and tea – but no beer! – at the start and end spots. More info here.

BikeLoud SE/E Chapter Meeting and Ride – 12:30 pm at Vera Katz Eastbank Esplanade
This is the first one of the BikeLoud south east and east chapter 3rd-Saturday-of-the-month meeting-ride. Meet at the Vera Katz statue and then head over to Asylum for lunch / meeting / hangout time. More info here.

Sunday, January 16th

River City Bicycles Beginners Ride – 10:30 am at River City Bicycles MLK (SE)
This rain or shine ride is geared for folks looking for a chill 10-15 mile route that should take around 60-90 minutes. Please bring your bike, wear something bright, have lights, wear a helmet, and don’t forget a smile! More info here.
