OK this weekend we start to hone our hill climbing skills! And learn “everything you need to know about your bike” including CHANGING A FLAT! The joke is often that it’s all downhill” from SF to LA. NOT! Lotsa hills and dales… and miles, so that’s why we’re training! We’ll help you with techniques and tricks to make your hill climbing easier and enjoyable (really!)
THE RIDE: We start in NE Portland and head up toward Mt. Tabor. Once we get to the base of the hill we’ll have our tire changing class and a “get to know your bike” exercise. Then an assisted climb up the east side, down the hill, then a ride up the west side!
All skill levels are welcome! If any ride is too much, we will work with you on making sure you have alternatives to the entire route. You will have a great bike ride and meet some cool people. That’s a win!
