Seriously man, this is Portland. Hardly the fashion capital of the world. This event is filled with clunkers, junkers and trash. And that's just the riders...
I mean everyone and everything comes out for this ride. Very social event, very low key. You get the racer types, you get the families, you get the urban folks on the single speeds. EVERYTHING. I promise you nobody will care about your gear.
Just come out and have fun and enjoy the scenery.
If you see me, say "hi", I'll be one of about 1700 people pulling their kids in a trailer. I will be one of the few with a trailer doing the full ride though.
