California gourmands and die-hard Chicagoans are welcome but requested to keep heckling to a minimum.
Bring cash for pizza (cost will depend on number of riders, but will probably be a dollar or two per person per pizza place). RSVP if you can to:

Post suggestions for good juke joints at zoobomb.org or ridemybike.org under the 'juke off booze cruise' board to be considered for the route.

Portland has so many great, old theaters! For some reason, this city still has a number of cinemas and vaudeville houses from the 'classic era' -- 1910's to 30's -- still standing, some of which still are active theaters today. This bicycle ride will explore various neighborhood theaters on the east side of the Willamette -- some still standing, some only a memory. The entire ride will cover approximately 6 miles in about 3 hours of time. After the full ride, we hope to take in a movie at one of Portland's classic movie palaces; bring appropriate cash if you would like to join us!
