Bicycle Day Bike Ride

On April 19th, 1943, Albert Hofmann took a bicycle ride that changed history. To celebrate and commemorate his discovery of LSD, join Portland Psychedelic Society for a festive and inclusive group ride in honor of Bicycle Day.

Meet us at Irving Park starting at 7:00 pm for a fun gathering to gear up for the ride and celebrate with like-minded others. Dress festively and decorate your bike! The ride will depart as the sun sets at 8:00 pm.

Ride leaders will guide us on a carefully planned route: approximately a 90 minute gentle social ride (an 8 miles loop, including midway stop), ending at The Hilt at 1934 NE Alberta St, with the option for participants to either conclude their ride or continue the celebration together. This will be an informal after party - please maintain a respectful and responsible atmosphere.

Exact route details will be shared with riders at Irving Park.

This is a no-drop, easy pace ride - nobody will be left behind. Ride at your own risk and watch where you’re going. Be careful. Be sober.

NO sale, distribution or solicitation of substances will be tolerated.
