Event Description:
BIKE FOR SHELTER is an open-road event with two route options: the BIG Route spans 27.7 miles and climbs Mt. Tabor, while the LITTLE Route winds through 8.7 miles of parks and neighborhoods. There will be rest stops and water stations, as well as bicycle repair and first aid assistance.
Get ready for plenty of parks, beautiful neighborhoods, and great views.
We're also benefiting an amazing cause: a local nonprofit called Transitions Global has been asked by the FBI and the Portland Police Force to open a safe house for underage girls from Oregon, Washington, and neighboring states who have been kidnapped or coerced into sexual slavery. It is a huge problem here in Portland–police officials say they could fill the shelter’s proposed 22 beds in 24 hours–and Transitions Global is exactly the right group to help. We're very proud to help them finance their project.
ALL LEVELS ARE WELCOME! So are all ages. |
