Bikesummer/Pedalpalooza 2026 Rides and Events
At long last, here are all my rides and events for this year’s Bikesummer, aka Pedalpalooza Bike Fun Festival. For the uninitiated, Bikesummer is three full months (June, July, August) of bicycle rides and the like, all led by people like you and me. Last year had about 1,000 rides over those three months, wow! This year should meet or top that number, so while nine events may look like a lot to…

Ride Report: Old Libraries Ride N/NE, 11 July 2022
Peering through the window of the old University Park branch, 11 July 2022. Minolta Hi-Matic 7s/Kosmo Foto Agent Shadow 400 Monday July 11th was a hot day, with heat much like we’ve seen in the week I am typing this (July 27): a high somewhere between 95 and 100 F (35 to 38 C).

Ride Report: Old Library Branches Ride, Sat 26 Feb 2022
After the COVID-imposed drought of rides, I’ve been fairly eager to lead rides again. But most of the rides that I’ve led since June of 2021 have been repeats: rides I’ve led in the past.

I had originally…

Hey folks! My last Pedalpalooza ride of 2021 is this weekend! And there’s still spots available. Join us this Saturday the 21st! There are currently 14 active branches of the Multnomah County Library within city limits (plus Central). But there have been many more branches that have come and go. Some of these branches moved to their current location, some simply closed, now forgotten. Many old…

Pedalpalooza 2021: The low-down
Pedalpalooza 2021: The low-down
Hello, folks. Pedalpalooza, Portland’s annual Bike-Fun Celebration, is back! After COVID drastically altered it last year, we are now back to group rides, but with precautions, like masking up. And this year it’s June, July, and August vs. just the month of June. As I mentioned last month, I’ll be partaking in the festivities. But things will be different than before. For the most part, all my…
