gkleinman Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I've done it before. It's an absolute Zoo. The short rides are insane, dangerously so. They don't stagger people out enough so you spend more time dodging people than anything else. Having said that, the long ride is amazing. Going over all the bridges is a blast, and if the weather is right it's heavenly. They used to have a bridge run as well, but they've ditched that in favor of s a short walk. Ugh.

robert Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 I talked with Fogatron (the guy who initially told me about it) today at the Farmer's Market. He still wants me to do it. I'll see if I can get the courage to join in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamingana Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Bridge pedal is something I've wanted to do since I first heard about it last year. Hopefully I can talk David into doing the 8 bridge (24 mile) route since that will start about 1.5 hours before the 6 bridge (14 mile) route. REI has in-store registration this Sat. (Aug. 4th) however the Bagby Hot Springs have priority on my schedule! See you Vegan Vacationers tomorrow! Ana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted August 11, 2007 Author Share Posted August 11, 2007 I just got reminded that I have a family reunion on Sunday, so I won't be able to make it! I'll be in Eugene. I hope everyone else has fun. Is anyone else doing this besides Fog? I know Dreamingana's husband was into too. Get pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DV Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 We're doing the short ride (14 miles). We haven't done it in the past. The ride is staggered this year so maybe it will be better. Of course, we took the last slot (9:15) so it'll probably be a zoo for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamingana Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 We're also going. We plan on doing the 8 bridge ride so we can start at 7am. We also plan on going to the Bite of Oregon event since it will be free for those who do the Bridge Pedal. Who knows, we may bump into some forum members at the event.

robert Posted August 12, 2007 Author Share Posted August 12, 2007 Awesome! I love seeing our Portland vegan forum community get bigger and better all the time! Have fun everyone! I'll be in Corvallis/Eugene all day. Please give us a recap about it in the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
