BORK BORK, IT'S "HOT DOGGIE" TIME! 🌭👨🍳 Come join the Bork Brigade for a Chef's Hat & Handlebar Tour of the Rock Creek Trail in Hillsboro! We roll out from Orenco Station's MAX stop, up to Hwy 26/Evergreen Rd, then out along Dawson Creek's park paths — past the Brookwood Library (shh, no borking indoors), beneath the Washington County Fairgrounds — and all the way into downtown Hillsboro. We finish with a Grand Opening at Franko's Hot Dogs' brand new brick-and-mortar location! Bork! This is a social-paced, one-hour, ten-mile ride — bike lanes, roads, and multi-use paths. Nothing scary. Mostly. Your leader's alter ego, The Not So Swedish Chef, will be serving up Muppets show tunes and an appropriate level of chaos to entertain you the whole way. Bork bork! Come dressed as your favorite Muppet, Puppet, Culinary Avant-Garde du Jour, or a Hot Diggity Dog costume if you dare! Everything else, I'll fill in with plenty of mumbled Chef-speech to your delightful dismay. I'm calling out the MUPPETS — yes, YOU — to find out once and for all: are you a Muppet of a person, or just a "Puppet of pure chaos"? Come ride. Come laugh. Come GET THE CHEF OUT! 🌭🎺
