Rides and Classes offer information and a supportive setting for adults new to cycling, new to the area, or just getting back on the bike. Active Transportation's Portland By Cycle campaign encourages you to use a bike more often - for fun, exercise, shopping, or even commuting to work.
Classes in Spring and Fall cover topics that everyone on a bike can appreciate, from the basics of starting out to maintenance, shopping by bike, riding through the rainy season and more.
Guided bike rides show you the best of Portland's neighborhoods and how to ride safely and confidently. All rides are loops - they start and end the same spot.. Tuesday rides start from Salmon Street Springs; Wednesday rides start at Universal Cycles. Both evenings' rides are 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.
Returning by popular demand, the Autumn Series of Saturday morning rides will encourage you to keep riding as the weather gets more interesting. As with our summer series, the rides go at a moderate pace and are a great way to learn Portland's great bikeways. New for 2013, the Second Saturday "Ride to the MAX" series - longer rides with few or no stops along the way, for those who want a bit more challenge. Still working on building up your miles? You can choose a round-trip tour or take the MAX Light Rail back to the start location for an easier ride.
Also check out the Women on Bikes program, a series of rides and clinics specifically designed to encourage more women to ride.
