Please be sure to download the appropriate GPS file to your computer (tcx or gpx). And print the map/cue sheet or pick one up at the start. Let's try to avoid the collapse into one large group because only 1-2 people have the route.
Also please be sure to load the current route either from the link in this email or directly from RwGPS. Route names are occasionally reused with minor changes.
Summer Challenges
Summer brings many challenges including heat and, to often, air quality. We try to adjust our rides to be as safe for our riders as possible. So far this year we have been somewhat blessed with cooler Saturdays. and, with the many wild fires burning throughout the west, decent air quality
When weather or air quality are issues the Operations team will evaluate the weather and air quality predictions for Saturday and make a decision whether or not to cancel the ride Friday afternoon. If we decide to cancel additional email will be sent and this website will be updated. If we decide to proceed with the ride there will not be any additional email or changes to the website.
While the Operations team can make decisions whether the official ride is to be held or cancelled many individuals opt to ride as a non-Portland Velo ride. That decision is up to the individuals. Your health is our primary concern.
