VERY IMPORTANT - last minute route change for STP going into Portland
GROUP HEALTH SEATTLE TO PORTLAND
BICYCLE CLASSIC
JULY 17 & 18, 2010
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STP ROUTE CHANGE ALERT!
Due to last-minute construction issues, there will be a NEW route into Portland. We are no longer going over St. John's Bridge. Riders will instead be crossing the Steel Bridge.
The new route will be marked, with extra signage at key turns. The change will affect the last 10 miles of the route. The Steel Bridge is a two-level drawbridge with a separated bicycle and pedestrian lane on the lower level. Event riders should take extra caution when crossing the bridge, and ride slowly and courteously around other users.
We'll be with you on the road to make sure everyone arrives safely in Portland, but please spread the word!
