*** Hi Visibility Clothing encouraged and rewarded *** Spend a day (or a few hours) riding between a few of Portland's finest craft breweries with your newest, beercycleyest friends! HiVis clothing is highly encouraged (I witnessed a car-on-pedestrian incident today and do NOT want to see anything similar any time soon). You are welcome to bring minors, but I confess that I have not vetted the stops for how welcome kids will be, so you may want to keep in communication with me about what our itinerary is so you can check ahead and not be surprised. Unfortunately, kids aren't welcome at our first brewery stop :( (Thanks for being a buzzkill, OLCC.) From Piccolo Park, we will ride to Gigantic SE 26th/Steele, hoping to arrive shortly after 11. We will hit Ground Breaker to get smart on producing gluten free beer, and then be at Baerlic (SE 11th/Sherman) for folks to meet up with us at 2:00. Potential subsequent stops include Living Häus, Grand Fir, and Deschuttes. The final brewery will be Lazy Days N Flint/Russell, which we will leave at 5 pm for the after party at a yet-to-be-disclosed location. The first round is on me if you're wearing HiVis :) It looks like rain, so the only long legs will be to and from Gigantic at the beginning of the day. Drop in or out as you like. There may or may not be food available at the various stops, so please be prepared. I carry no tools, so unless one of the traveling mechanics decides to offer their services, you'll be on your own for any problems you might have with your bike. You will need to be at Lazy Days at 5 pm to find out about the final destination for post-ride libations, where your HiVis clothing will be rewarded :) I'll have an Ultimate Ears speaker as my sound system: feel free to bring anything compatible and/or one-up my tunes.
