(Event was July 5th and July 6th)

Tonight, SmartTrips North-Northeast kicks off its summer of Portland By Cycle rides with the very popular Sweet Summer Cycle rides. 

The meterologists have promised excellent weather for both tonight's North Portland ride and Wednesday's ride in NE Portland. 

Besides sun and warmth and biking fun, tonight you will also enjoy free samples from Brother Bob's Roving Bakery, Kandy Korner and Robots Love Cupcakes.

Wednesday's NE ride will feast on complimentary tastes from Annie's Donuts, Case Study Coffee and Rose's Ice Cream.

Participants must bring their own bikes and helmets are required at all Portland By Cycle Rides. Water and lights are recommended. All rides are slow-paced - no one will be left behind. Check online for the full summer of Portland By Cycle rides.
