West Hills Roller Coaster -Portland Bicycling Club

West Hills Roller Coaster

Description

Come build strength or see something new by mixing the West Hills into your riding schedule. We roll up and down through Sylvan Hill, the Fairmont Loop, Terwilliger, Council Crest, Pittock Mansion and Skyline. It is a bunch of fun (& steep) “ups” that will challenge you, and “downs” that will leave you feeling like a kid again. Elevation Gain/Loss: ~2500 feet. With all the ups & downs we’ll average around 9-11 mph by the end of the ride. Traffic is generally quite low and we’ll stay together enough that you won’t have to navigate thru all the turns. E-bikes are welcome – bring a fully charged battery! Optional coffee stop near the end of the ride, so bring water and nutrition to get you over the hills.
