			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Portland Wheelmen Touring Club (PWTC) offers a series of rides called WELCOME TO PWTC. You need not be a member to participate. These rides are especially for the newer or less experienced rider but are probably too ambitious for a novice rider.</p>
<p>The expectation is that the rider can pedal along at about 12 to 15 mph on the flats and complete a 30-mile ride. These rides are group rides, which means the group of riders generally stays together throughout the ride. The ride leader will guide the group and offer riding suggestions as needed. These rides provide a safe and friendly opportunity for newer riders to get out and ride with other cyclists. More information may be obtained by calling the ride leader listed.</p>
<p>Start: 9:30 a.m. Tri-Met Park and Ride lot, NE 96th &amp; Sandy.</p>
<p>This ride will use a different route each time: we may head north into Vancouver, east out to Troutdale, west into north and northeast Portland, or even south toward Milwaukie, depending on the weather and the wishes of the riders.</p>
<p>25-30 miles.<br />Ride Leader: Bud Rice 503.667.0683.</p>

<p>Start: 9:30 a.m. from Sellwood Park at SE 7th and Sellwood Blvd.</p>
<p>This is a great ride with something for everyone. We will tour the Willamette River on bike paths and glide through historical neighborhoods as we loop the city. Between these adventures, we&#8217;ll stop for coffee and refreshments. The ride has a few ups (and downs) with plenty of scenery.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet at Grand Central Bakery, 3425 SW Multnomah Blvd., Portland.</p>
<p>Who needs a ThighMaster when you can have a Climb Max?</p>
<p>You will get a great workout on this one, and you might be surprised at how this SW Portland ride circling Lake Oswego often seems like a low-traffic, back-country tour. Terrain will vary, with flats, rollers, short steeps, and a few sustained (1/2 mi to 2-1/2 mi) climbs. Expect 2,500-3,000 feet of total elevation gain. The pace will generally be 18-20 MPH on the flats and 13-15 MPH on the climbs, depending on the pitch. Open the week with a reminder why even suburban riding in our community can be beautiful. And leave time for the coffee and conversation at Grand Central.</p>
<p>Note: No one is dropped or allowed to get lost on this ride. You show up, we&#8217;ll get you back!</p>
<p>Distance: 32.83 Miles</p>
