Bridges! BIKES! Borealis!
Make sure to stop and smell the roses ๐น
For what it lacks in its rather unimaginative name, Rocky Butte has to be one of our favorite rides in the city. About 30-45 minutes riding from the shop, the climb up is gradual, and scenic, with the very top affording 360ยฐ views of the Gorge and Portland. Itโs a popular place to watch the sunset; the airport is close so plane-spotting can be fun too! The downhill on the south side utilizes a corkscrew tunnel, which makes for a super exhilarating ride!
Rocky Butte is one of several extinct cinder cone volcanoes within city limits, a distinction that only a few cities in the country have. Even more interesting is that when the Missoula Ice Age Floods ripped through the Columbia Gorge ages ago, Rocky Butte sat right in the path of the flow, which created an eddy behind it. This insanely strong current and eddy combination allowed for heaps of stones and debris to deposit in a long line, trailing away from the butte like a tail.
This tail of material now makes up what we know as Alameda Ridge, a fantastic little ripple in our landscape. The best part is there are several neighborhood greenways in the area and itโs a wonderful place to ride bikes!!
Leif Erikson Drive is a little muddy but perfect for a ride! (Or- lock up your bike at the trailhead and hike!)

Looks bad out there, but apparently most smoke is higher up... probably not the best time to go further east, though. Stop in to ask our favorite indoor places- from arcades to restaurants to bars to museums!

A good bike path is simple and adventuresome.
That's why our favorite bike path in Portland is...
Eastbank Esplanade!
The Vera Katz Eastbank Esplanade is 1.5 miles long, extending north from the Hawthorne Bridge, past the Morrison and Burnside Bridges, to the Steel Bridge with connections to eastside neighborhoods as well as across the river to Gov. Tom McCall Waterfront Park.
Despite the minimalist nature of this quadrant cutting bikeway, there seem to be endless opportunities to take in the beautiful cityscape while looking over the Willamette River.
Now it's your turn!

I thought Iโd use one of our slick full carbon road bike rentals for this yearโs De Ronde ride, a masochistic sweat-fest with over 9000โ of gain in a relatively short area. The course has been adapted over the years and I gotta hand it to @chasing.lions.pdx , the routing is brilliantly thought out with steep, winding ascents, fast smoother descents, and very few roads ridden twice. I was really excited to do this with our stellar crew since the course is essentially an amalgamation of Portlandโs best climbs close to town, however there were tons of new little spots I havenโt checked out yet, including the barely rideable NW Brynwood Lane, Portlandโs steepest road! If you live and breathe steep hills and find yourself in Portland without a bike, weโve got you covered! #shutuplegs
Check out this wonderfully quirky place we call home by renting a two-wheeled whip and soaking up the viiiibe! Or better yet, register for one of our awesome guided tours - youโll learn a thing or two, and may even have a few new friends by the end of the ride!! . . . . . #familyowned #smallbusiness #cycleportland #visitpdx #portlandia #womanowned #shoplocal #travelportland #traveloregon

Portland's Naked Bike Ride is the largest in the world. Don't even try to drive - thousands of bikes will take to the streets at 8pm to raise awareness of bike vulnerability and safety concerns, with a touch of environmentalism (rising temperatures) added in. Its one big protest mixed with a festival- so wear as much (or little) as comfortable and join the fun!!! . . . . . . . . #nakedbike #wnbr #portland #nakedbikeride #worldnakedbikerideportland #oregon #nakedbikeguy #bike #pedalpalooza #pdx
