Lakeside Bicycles Invites Portland Velo on Rides
Thanks to our sponsor LAKESIDE BICYCLES, Portland Velo has been invited to join them on their Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday weekly rides which begin at Lakeside Bicycles in Lake Oswego.
Wednesday and Saturday rides vary from 35 to 80+ miles in length depending on who shows up and how much time they have. Sunday rides need to return to Lakeside Bicycles before noon so we can open the shop. All the rides leave from behind Lakeside Bicycles. The pace can be pretty frisky but in no case is anyone left behind or otherwise destroyed or intimidated. Weekend parking is available on-street and in any of the municipal public parking lots (which are unpatrolled on weekends). Wednesday parking needs to be a bit more circumspect particularly for rides that run more than 3 hours. Routes and duration are determined by a somewhat democratic process: Everyone gets a vote, the loudest voice (usually Doug's) decides.
