Free

Ride the Mini Seattle (Street) to Portland (Street) to Summer Fest again this year:

Sunday, July 14, 2019 – 9:15 am to 1:00 pm

Have you ever wanted to do the Seattle-to-Portland bike ride? And forgot to sign up or train for it? Here is your big chance! Do it in 2 hours! Same weekend as Cascade’s big STP, so you too can brag at the water cooler and post pix. West Seattle Bike Connections members will be leading the little STP again from SW Seattle Street in the Admiral neighborhood to SW Portland Street in Fauntlee Hills, and back north to Summerfest at the West Seattle Junction, for a fabulous finish line party.

Family friendly and fun! This is a West Seattle Bike Connections and Cascade Bicycle Club ride. Helmets required. You are encouraged to pre-register and see more ride information at https://cascade.org/node/69289

Check brakes and tires. Arrive by 9:15 for route/safety intro. Helmets required. No ear buds. Pre-register or on the spot. Rolling at 9:30.

Family friendly and fun! Easy pace. We will stay together and work together to cross any busy intersections. This will be a Cascade Bicycle Club approved ride.

For children and youth riding their own bikes: parent or guardian please read and conform to Cascade’s policy. Contact ride leader for 2-way communication at least a day in advance. All who are capable of riding the distance on streets with some hills are most welcome!

7.5 miles to SW Portland and on to Summer Fest at the Junction. Another 2.7 miles to get back to the Hamilton Viewpoint start. Route is mostly on quieter residential streets along the ridge parallel to California Avenue SW. Some hills, including a block or two we might walk up.

Steady rain cancels. We ride if there are just light showers.
