On the worst weather day of the year, where will be you?
Tucked inside with a blanket and a book? We don't think so...
Join 3,000 other riders for the Worst Day of the Year Ride, an 18-mile odyssey around downtown Portland that has quickly become a quirky annual tradition.
We'll keep you warm and comfy at every turn with tons of belly-nourishing treats including hot cocoa, doughnuts, fruit, spicy chai tea, soups, fresh foccacia bread, bagels, hot cider and much more.
Join hundreds of other hardy souls as we laugh at the elements and gather for a delicious finish line party at the Lucky Labrador.
The ride is capped at 3,000 riders. Register early so you don't miss out on this ever-popular ride!
