Hi folks. We have another ride coming up. We’ll meet up Sunday at Pieper Cafe (6504 SE Foster Rd, there is a crosswalk at 65^th to help you cross) then ride out east on the Bush St Greenway to Powell Butte. I found a nice way to connect with the Springwater without climbing the butte and I thought I’d share my discovery. We’ll meander back to Foster through neighborhoods and end at Slingshot Lounge (5532 SE Center St) about a half mile from the start. Total loop is 15.6 miles.

Right now the forecast looks good. 60 & sunny. Can’t beat that.
