Pedalpalooza Bike Summer

Annual bike fun fest with hundreds of rides. The fest began in 2002 when the traveling Bike Summer stopped in Portland. Locals loved it so much, they did it again in 2003 and called it “Mini Bike Summer.” Then in 2004 the named changed to Pedalpalooza. In 2024, the organizer chose to drop that moniker and refresh back to Bike Summer.

Breakfast on the Bridges is every Friday morning in June

Breakfast on the Bridges is a proud Portland tradition. It’s been happening for about 16 years and shows no signs of running out of steam — or should I say cream. As in, cream for your coffee.
