My wife will be working but I can make it. Looking forward to meeting you! Are you on a walkabout?
visiting mom in nursing home, she had some strokes last year. Going to coast today.

My best to your mother and watch for LE west of Saddle Mountain if you go out Hwy 26. Enjoy the day and see you on Friday.
I'll be there.
Great ride to the coast, Hwy 26 out to Cannon Beach, south to Tillamook, Hwy 9 (i think) back to HWY 26 then back to the city just in time for the rush hour through the tunnel and over the S turns to the Ross Island bridge. Was trying to avoid the I205 parking lot and got into the downtown parking lot, boy those busses just plow through and intersection.
I think I have it figured out. Between the bicycles, the pedestrians and the TriMet busses the drivers are afraid to drive their cars. Where I live bicycles and pedestrians have bullseyes on them and score at different rates according to their speed. Only busses are school busses and we just ignore them.
Still on for Friday, think I have some SWAG still, i'll check.

Today was fun! Good burgers, good ride, and great conversation!
Thanks guys
Good burger, good ride, good beer, and great company to ride with. Maybe we should make this a weekly event.
Yessir! It's been tough to make new friends since I got out of the penitentiary. Seriously though, I enjoyed the day as well and will look forward to the next ride. I'd like to run you guys, and anybody else, up around Mt. St. Helens. Thanks for the call out Mr. and Mrs. @LargeCar and thanks to @BryanL for leading the lap around the countryside - and buying the adult beverages. It was nice meeting and chatting with you all. I'll ride anytime I'm available.
We started here, Roake's in Portland, OR:
And ended here, @BryanL s hacienda in Oregon City :
That's a '15, a '16 and a '17. We need an '18 to join us for the next ride...

Mmm.. Bent Shovel Brewing. Good beer!
Thinking of a ride up around Detroit lake during the first of next week. Just need to pick the best day for it. Any interest?
LC
I'd love to. I've got a ton of work done recently and deserve a reward! The only sunny days I see in the near forecast is Monday and maybe Wednesday. If it's nice enough Sunday I could bring my better half. What are you thinking?
Thinking Monday may be the better day. Let's pencil in Monday. Need to learn how to tag people so I can tag Brian to see if he can go. Any other Portland area people are welcome as well.

Monday sounds great. @BryanL ?
Just type in @ followed by at least 3 letters and it will autofill the rest.
It depends on time of day you all want to leave. I have to work til 11am. If I can't make it, the road from Estacada to Detroit is a fun one. Then back up through Silverton makes a great day ride.
I'd love to go though
Well I was thinking 4am but we could start from your place at 11 if that works.
