Cycle Portland

For what it lacks in its rather unimaginative name, Rocky Butte has to be one of our favorite rides in the city. About 30-45 minutes riding from the shop, the climb up is gradual, and scenic, with the very top affording 360° views of the Gorge and Portland. It’s a popular place to watch the sunset; the airport is close so plane-spotting can be fun too! The downhill on the south side utilizes a corkscrew tunnel, which makes for a super exhilarating ride!
Rocky Butte is one of several extinct cinder cone volcanoes within city limits, a distinction that only a few cities in the country have. Even more interesting is that when the Missoula Ice Age Floods ripped through the Columbia Gorge ages ago, Rocky Butte sat right in the path of the flow, which created an eddy behind it. This insanely strong current and eddy combination allowed for heaps of stones and debris to deposit in a long line, trailing away from the butte like a tail.
This tail of material now makes up what we know as Alameda Ridge, a fantastic little ripple in our landscape. The best part is there are several neighborhood greenways in the area and it’s a wonderful place to ride bikes!!

Looks bad out there, but apparently most smoke is higher up... probably not the best time to go further east, though. Stop in to ask our favorite indoor places- from arcades to restaurants to bars to museums!
