Ride Westside to Record Store Day at 503 Records (Then Breakfast)

🚨 Newsflash: Meet at 6:50 AM

• Organizer: Mick for Ride Westside
• Schedule: Meet at 6:50 Ride at 7
• Ride Length: 3-8 miles

We know you like bikes, but do you like vinyl? How about breakfast burritos? This is a social ride for all of the above. The plan is to meet up just before 7 AM at Ava Roasteria (earlier if you want coffee; they open at 6 AM), mob around a bit, 3-4 miles, maybe catch the 7:25 sunrise riding through Commonwealth Lake Park (Actual sunlight is unlikely these days, we admit), and then get to 503 Records in Beaverton a little bit before they open at 8 AM for Record Store Day Black Friday, featuring limited-edition vinyl releases pressed especially for the occasion. Some hardcore folks will likely be camped out in line when we get there, so we’re not sure when we’ll get into the shop. Our rideleader has his eye on a few of the RSD releases. 503 Records is planning on free coffee and goodies as well. But after we see what we get, we’ll hop back on our bikes and head over to Tacos Fita for breakfast (Best breakfast burrito in Beaverton!) and compare our finds and converse amiably.

This will be a socially paced, neighborhood-style ride suitable for casual riders. In the case of light-to-medium rain, we’ll still be down to ride. Dress warmly and bring lights.

Here is the official list of special releases for Record Store Day; there are, of course, no guarantees on stock or availability at any individual store.

Notes: Record store purchase not required to ride with us. 12” vinyl can be tricky to transport on a bike, but they do fit carefully in basic Ortleib panniers)
