Mill creek Clocking in here. The regional discussions section is a good idea.

Just purchased my first home in NE Portland in the Montevilla neighborhood. 14 mile round trip commute to downtown has pretty much been most of my riding this summer since keeping up with a 100 year old house takes a lot of work. As evident from our last ride, I've gotta get in shape quick to get ready for cyclocross season!

BonneyLake, WA. East of Tacoma 15-20 miles on the southern edge of the Enumclaw/Buckley/Bonneylake/LakeTapps rootin' tootin' dually truck drivin', suv soccer mom, million dollar lake mansions dairy farms and vast trailer parks, often all mixed together, plateau.

Live in PDX in the Sellwood/Moreland neighborhood (about 10 minutes southeast of downtown). Most of my rides are either on Skyline or down toward Oregon City on River Rd. Peregrine, I also commute each day past your house, but I am traveling out in the morning and back to town in the evening.

I live in Sherwood and work in Tigard. It's great being able to get together for rides!

I just bought a Cannondale. Have never been a rider before, until moving up to Portland from San Francisco. I am a SERIOUS beginner. Have no idea what I am doing, but I love the idea of getting around on my bike. so yeah, that is it for the intro!

i live in scappoose, or. i've lived here for 9 or 10 years. it's nice, and there are awesome places to ride, but i never intended to stay this long! it's 25 minutes or so from st johns in N portland, where i grew up (and where i plan to return if it isn't overrun by yuppies when i finally have the dough).

I'm in John's Landing two miles from Downtown. Short commute into work, but climbing Corbett right from the start gets the heart pumpin'

Seattle here, right in the middle of the city on Capitol Hill.
Sometimes I think it would be nice to be able to go for a ride without constantly planning for getting around the steepest parts of the hill. Definitely not tough enough (yet) to go over them indiscriminately. Hardly any of my friends have bikes, so I'm always looking for people to go on bike rides with - but only if you're not so tough that you're going to leave me in the dust on those hills! |

My address is Vancouver but I'm actually in a no-mans-land between Vancouver and Camas known as Fisher's Landing....... I alternate between dirt and road, been doing dirt lately.... Gotta switch back to road though so I can justify a new bike to the wifey.

Please enlighten me, too--I know not of the laws you speak---is anyone else out there deterred even the least little bit by all of this smoke? Idaho is burning......
|
I am from Whistler bc. Little further north than some of you might be used to but I tend to have a lot of kindred spirits in WA.

Idaho Stop sign Law
No smoke for the past few days since the wind shifted but we had it here last week from the fires in Dayton, WA. |
Ok, I'll check in from the little hole in the wall we call Port Orchard, WA.
