Photo of kids and adults on the street riding bikes. Spring is here! Celebrate the return of flowers, birds and monthly family-friendly Kidical Mass bike rides. We will ride around Northeast Portland on this free, family-friendly, kid-paced bike ride. We’ll ride from Alberta Park playground to Fernhill park on neighborhood greenways, while listening to springtime music. We will stop at Fernhill park to play, then head back to the start The ride is a 3.7 mile loop total, ending back at Alberta Park Meet at 1pm , decorate your bikes and helmets with flowers, then ride at 1:30pm sharp We ride slow for little pedalers. Kids should wear a helmet, be able to ride in a straight line, start and stop. Cargo bikes, tandems, trailers and tag-a-longs are great for kids who haven’t learned to pedal, or get tired soon. We'll ride together as a group, rain or shine, because kids are traffic too!

@shift2bikes.bsky.social Hey, there's a bunch of cool orgs that need help putting up fliers, and we happen to love to bike around the city. Would folks be interested in connecting these dots? I don't have enough time to offer lead more than 1 or 2 runs but I have a map with lots of bulletin boards.
