Here's the New Deal. . . Let's ride on the one predicted dry day
Details
A chicken in every pot, a pancake on every plate, a waffle on every fork. It's time for a New Deal, and we'll find it a at the New Deal Cafe
Start Time – Wheel rolling at 10:00 am. Please be on time. If you're running a few minutes late, give me a call (no guarantees I'll get the call) and be prepared with a song and tap shoes to tap dance your way back into the hearts of your fellow riders.
Attitude: Slow and social. Let's have a ring-a-ding time. We'll shake a leg, but we won't be making tracks.
Ride leader contact information – Edward Lanton. Cell is 971-258-6066 or email anquetil@yahoo.com
Route: TBD, but it will be short, around 15-20 flat miles unless the weather report improves. A X mile flattish route through NE and N PDX. Almost the entire route is on close in residential streets. We'll also spend a short time on arterial streets with the attendant commercial truck and automobile traffic. Please review the route carefully, and if you're not comfortable with the route or the conditions do not sign up for this ride. Please print out the route or download to your favorite electronic navigation aid.
NOTE: Depending on the weather, there may be an 8:30 a.m. workout level optional ride. Stay tuned.

All riders must have their rides in good working order and must bring a flat kit, spam, & spare tube on all rides. If there is an issue with proper working or lack of equipment you may be asked to sit the ride out. Please ask for help if you are ill equipped prior to the ride. We will try to help!
All riders must be able to change a flat should they have one or have a way to get picked up (AAA, a friend, spam-wagon…). There is often but not always someone on the ride who knows how to help you change your tire so plan accordingly.
