Report from ride leader Katie M: Eight intrepid Sorelle (Mary, Debra, Melinda, Amy, Nancy, Tera, Jamey, and new Sorella, Ellen) joined me on one of my maiden ride leading experiences. Happy to say that we all survived and made it back to the shop or our final biking destinations, in any case. Perfect conditions and excellent vibes. 31 miles and no mechanicals. Ann Thomas sighting, too! @rcbpdx@pactimo_official@dumonde.tech.bicycle.usa@wenzelcoaching@sugarwheelworks

May 2 ride reports from leader Jamey W: 6 of us left RCB around 9 and headed to Mt. Tabor. Due to my daydreaming, a detour at Ladd Circle lead us meadanering around the neighborhoods and we eventually made it up the other side of Mt. Tabor which I have to say is a nicer climb especially in terms is gradient and road surface!
After climbing Mt. Tabor, one rider departed and the remaining five of us proceeded up 205 to Marine Dr.
Nice morning, nice ride and great company!

Ride report Saturday April 25 Intermediate Ride: It was a glorious day to ride. We rode the iconic beast of a ride, the Rocket Ride from River City. Nine of us traveled from River City (Aoife, Ari, Lisa, Beth, Jessie, Jamie, Katie, Addie, and Jenn) up to Council Crest. While the elevation seemed never-ending at times, the descents were a spectacular treat!
No mechanicals, just heavy breathing.
Highlights include: Chats with some awesome woman cyclists, the views of our beautiful city, a Hawthorne Bridge lift, and of course a PIZZA Party with fellow Sorella, Jodee, at the end. @rcbpdx@pactimo_official@dumonde.tech.bicycle.usa@wenzelcoaching@sugarwheelworks

From ride leader Jennifer B: What a beautiful day for a Sorella Ride! Eight of us left River City bikes shortly after 9, for a lovely ride along Marine Drive out to Blue Lake park, back through the 205 bike path, and through bike corridors through NE Portland. Thank you Emily, Deb, Ari, Asta, Laura, Dave, and Stephanie for great company and gorgeous scenery!
Special thanks to Deb, for loaning me an extra pair of sunglasses! šš»
