Lisa: My partner in Sacramento, CA and I (now in Portland) had a community radio show for the year of 2024 in Davis, CA at KDVS 90.3 FM.
We would play goth, industrial, soundtracks, scores, indie rock, and more. Kyle really liked playing music from mostly small shows (some medium) we would attend.
We are planning to have some of the focus be on the dead or death or related topics to honor The Day of the Dead in our own way.
If anyone has any requests to add to remember or honor their Loved Ones, we welcome those songs. Even if you don't think they fit with our music choices, we still welcome them.
Moorland is helping us with our route. Thanks:)

🚨 Newsflash: Not a ride
Don’t let a flat tire cut your ride short! Join Ride Westside for a hands-on clinic and learn how to repair a bicycle inner-tube puncture with a patch kit.
We’ll walk through finding the cause of a flat, removing the wheel and tube, locating and patching the puncture, and putting everything back together. You’ll have time to practice, ask questions, and learn what to carry in a compact repair kit.
No previous repair experience is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to give it a try. Leave feeling more confident handling a flat while you’re out riding.
This clinic focuses on conventional inner tubes. Tubeless tires and some e-bike wheels may require different procedures.
Biking in the rain is not only possible, it's fun too! Text BIKE followed by a photo of yourself and your bicycle in the rain to 888-520-0526 for the chance to win waterproof or high-visibility gear.
Loop ride starting and ending at Stringfield Park in Oak Grove. We ride into Portland on the Trolley and Springwater Trails, climb up Terwilliger, descend into Lake Oswego and circle back to the Park via Oregon City and the Trolley Trail. Note: New route bypassing a big portion of Terwilliger downhill; thanks to Cheryl Conrad for scouting this out.
This is a group ride, we will regroup at the top of climbs if we get separated. Coffee/Lunch at Peet’s Coffee in Lake Oswego.

Interested in doing more on-the-bike adventures, but feeling limited by not having the right gear? OR, are you sitting on way too much gear that doesn’t really fit your needs? Well then, do we have the event for you!
Join us Monday, November 23 for a WeBike gear swap! Attendees are invited (but not required) to bring gently used gear to swap with fellow WeBikers. This can be whatever you think others might get use out of – bike camping gear and bike bags, commuting gear (panniers, rain clothes, etc.), cycling apparel, and more. If you don’t have any gear to contribute, we still want you there! Some of our amazing community partners have donated gear and helmets that we’ll contribute to the Gear Swap Pot. Plus, all leftover gear will be donated to our friends at Bike Farm. Win-win!
We’ll have bubbly water and light snacks to share, and attendees are welcome to bring more potluck-style snacks if that’s your jam. We’ll do it open-house style, so feel free to come and go whenever works for you during the event’s 6-8 p.m. window.
About WeBike:
WeBike is The Street Trust’s program to inspire more trans people of all genders, gender non-conforming people, Two Spirit, and women (both trans and cis) to incorporate a bike into their lives and use biking as a way to meet their transportation needs and personal goals. We aim to dismantle the barriers of cycling through rides, knowledge-sharing events, meet and greets, and mentorship. The WeBike-Portland private Facebook group is a resource, hub, and a way to connect with others riding in the area.

Enjoy an illuminated evening bike ride through Wilsonville’s city streets. Perfect for families and cycling enthusiasts of all ages!
Would you ride in the rain for all-you-can-eat bratwurst? Let's enjoy some rolling (and likely rainy) miles to Verboort; the all-you-can eat dinner tastes way better if you ride there!
GETTING THERE
Meet at the Wallace Park picnic shelter near the basketball courts. Gather at 8am, departing at 8:30am - can't be too late to dinner. Pace will be spirited enough to stay warm but slow enough to not show up too sweaty. There will be a few regroup/snack breaks at the top of the climbs, as shown on the route.
THE ROUTE
Please be aware that there are some significant hills on this route, and we will be far from TriMet service at times. While this is a no-drop ride, you are expected to be self-sufficient! Bring enough layers and calories to keep yourself happy and healthy for the conditions. There are short sections of busy roads on route, but it is generally pretty low-traffic. There is a short section of gravel since it's the nicest way to get over the hill; you will be able to ride it on any type of bike.
Bring a lock, lights, rain gear, and some cash! Fenders are appreciated :)
THE SAUSAGE FESTIVAL
Dinner is $23, and there will be a wait to eat after we arrive. Luckily, there's a beer garden to pass the time in... There will be sauerkraut and sausage for sale. Make sure you've got the stomach and cargo capacity to take advantage of it all!
https://www.verboort.org/dinner
GETTING HOME
Worried about riding home? ...trust us, the MAX is the better option. We'll roll out as a group and keep the pace easy on our full tummies.
Meet our bike club, explore Portland Metro, learn great routes North, South, East and West.We do the planning and you just come out to ride your bike and enjoy some time in the saddle. NO DROP bike ride. Mostly flat and easy (climbs to access bridges). Caters to newer, slower riders. Learn how to access and ride the two Interstate Bridges. Beautiful scenery, fun metro riding. Depending on group and weather we may take a spin through the new Vancouver waterfront area. Will include a stop at a nice cafe in Vancouver. Pace 13-15 mph with modifications for specific group.
🚨 Newsflash: AN IDEA FOR A RIDE
On November 25, 1976 (Thanksgiving Day), the Band held a farewell concert at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco. It was The Last Waltz.
Besides The Band, the concert featured their former employers, Ronnie Hawkins and Bob Dylan, as well as Paul Butterfield, Bobby Charles, Eric Clapton, Neil Diamond, Emmylou Harris, Dr. John, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, the Staple Singers, Ringo Starr, Muddy Waters, Ronnie Wood, and Neil Young.
The Last Waltz was filmed by Martin Scorsese who made a documentary film with the same name that came out in 1978. It is considered one of the greatest concert films ever made.
I have to admit that I never saw the film until recently, but with the 50th anniversary coming, I decided that I needed to have a look. It is truly a fine record of rock and other popular music in the mid 1970s and a showcase for the Band itself. (I admit also that I had previously known only their most popular songs.)
This year, November 25 is the day before Thanksgiving. I know that is busy day for many people, but I still think that it would be fitting to commemorate the 50th anniversary in a celebratory bike ride.
I do not have a speaker or trailer or any way to play music during a ride. That is why this is only "an idea for a ride". If this idea inspires you (and especially if you have a way to bring music to a ride), please reach out and let me know. If it doesn't work out, I can always stay home (or go somewhere else - my wife doesn't like the music) and watch the movie again. (I have the Blu-ray!)
Exact time is, of course, flexible, as are starting location, length, etc.

Our destination is one of the following: Mt. Angel Abbey (45 miles round trip), the Silverton Oregon Garden (53 miles round trip), or St Paul (42 miles round trip). Please bring a snack as there is no restaurant stop but there will be water available mid-way. Most of this ride is scenic farm country on flat roads and traffic is low. We will ride 18-20 mph (possibly a little slower on rainy/fender days and faster on dry days). Riders riding slower than 18 mph: If you do not know the route, please print a cue sheet in case you are the only one riding that speed.

This ride will tour public art and Public Works sites that mimic natural waterways, including the Oregon Convention Center rain garden and the downtown Open Space Sequence. It will be a relaxed paced ride (8-10 mph) along low-stress bikeways, with frequent stops to show off gems of Portland art, architecture and inspiration that represent our connection to the natural world, specifically rivers and streams.
This is a no-drop loop ride perfect for folks new to Portland, new to the bike or just getting back on their wheels. About 8 miles long round trip. Coffee and restroom available at the start location, we'll provide the donuts!.
Bring a friend because no one is left behind! Bring appropriate clothing - you know Portland weather, always interesting, and we'll ride rain or shine.
Free and open to everyone. Made possible with support from the Portland Clean Energy Community Benefits Fund.
Free BIKETOWN rides!
We have some free BIKETOWN codes (we pay the cost) available specifically for this ride! To receive a BIKETOWN code, email Timo Forsberg at [email protected].
Contact: portland.gov/bike
Free exclusive sticker for anyone who attends! (this will be the only way to get this sticker!)
Yo it's Backpack, I am leading the DBBC club ride for November because it's right around my birthday. It'll be pretty chill pace, accessible to all bicycles (feel free to ride a freak bike if you have one). It should be a relatively easy route (classic three stops: park -> store -> end). Ending with a campfire, free stickers, should be a good time. Bring your friends, bring your grandma, bring your dog. It will likely be chilly, so dress warm / pack layers. Be respectful to other riders! If a rando is being a weird let someone in the club know!
I am hoping to facilitate a casual game of mumblety-peg at the end spot. If you are unfamiliar with the game there's be no obligation to play.
Thank you, hope to see you at the ride!

We have a 51 mile route and 2,300 feet of climbing! Tough sauce! You know how we roll, faster and more adventurous with that no drop mentality. Around mile 26 there will be a lunch stop. Sleep in!

🚨 Newsflash: TNR #612: X-mas Eve
Thursday Night Ride is Portland’s longest-running weekly social ride, rolling out from Salmon Street Springs every Thursday night since 2015!
Routes and ride leaders change weekly, but expect an energetic, party-paced social ride with warmth and weirdness from our welcoming “rolling dive bar” regulars. Most rides feature regularly spaced park and store stops, generally leading to a lively end spot around 11 PM. Come prepared to have fun and celebrate cycling together—other wheeled guests should respect the pace and space of cyclists.
Strong Thursday traditions, stronger shared expectations. While you might see some wheelies and other chaos, riders are expected to follow Shift’s Code of Conduct. If you’ve been asked not to attend *any* Shift rides, you are not welcome at TNR—that’s not up for debate on our ride. No complaints, just accountability—if your behavior makes others feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please leave the ride before the ride leaves you.
TNR works best when everyone helps set the tone and shares responsibility. Look out for each other, welcome new riders and help them find the next stop, leave it better than you found it, give people space when they need it, and help keep the ride moving forward together by practicing Consent, Accountability, Respect, and De-escalation at all times.
Stay behind the ride leader and don’t forget to thank a corker!
📍 Salmon Street Springs, every Thursday, rain or shine.
🕖 Meet at 7:00, announcements after 7:30, leave after “Beer Minutes.”
🕢 If you’re not at the fountain by 7:30, you may want to meet us at the next stop.

From there it's down the I-205 back to Lents.

What we affectionately refer to as the Kiddy Coaster, the shorter route, but with less severe climbs, but still a bunch of elevation gain. We'll stay together enough that you won’t have to navigate thru all the turns. The ride starts at the west end of the Highway 26 bike path (near the Hwy 26/217 interchange), rolls up and down through the West Hills, and makes a stop to take in the views from Council Crest. The ride has a bunch of fun (and steep) “ups” that will challenge you, and “downs” that will leave you feeling like a kid again. E-bikes are welcome – bring a fully charged battery! Optional coffee stop near the end of the ride, so bring water and nutrition to get you over the hills.
Do you love devils food or a yeast raised with sprinkles? Maybe a Mexican mocha or Boston cream? Why live in a land of OR, when you can live in a land of AND. Lets roll west to my favorite doughnut spot, load up our panniers and head north to Whispering Woods (Pio Pio Park if it's raining). It's there we'll enjoy our doughnut delights and one of my favorite park trails. Ride will be no drop with moderate pace and some trail riding. Come play bikes!
