    Portland, Oregon vacation

    I am going to visit my daughters in Portland next month. One of them has 3 or 4 bikes and I can use one of them and the transport system in the city to get around. She lives on Mt. Tabor and I figure I can ride down and if it gets too hard going uphill I can always grab a bus back up. Kinda chicken but I live in a pretty non-hilly area and am not sure I can get up there well. I'm not sure how comfortable I'll be going really fast downhill either. She mentioned there's something called bridge riding while I'm there. Has anyone heard of this. Anyone from Oregon with any great riding idea's?

    Hi, Greta! I hope you'll have a wonderful stay. I'm guessing she meant the Bridge Pedal. It's a great way to see Portland.

    Hey Greta it would be great to meet you while you're in Portland.

    I'll be doing the Bridge Pedal ride, maybe we can meet? PM me let me know if you want to.
