12:00pm OMSI Science Ride
Our ride will start at noon at OMSI (1945 SE Water Ave) with some sciency fun while we wait for everyone to gather. Our meeting spot is in the parking lot behind the PEPCO building. This is the white building just north of OMSI. If you’re riding along the esplanade you’ll see us and we’ll put up some signs to help. We’ll hit the road around 12:30 for a casual ride with some science stops along the way. We’ll make a loop and return to omsi and take a behind the scenes tour of our exhibit-building workshop. Then we’ll make some liquid nitrogen ice cream, and have at least one big explosion.
