Today’s Ride – Kelley Point

      3 Comments on Today’s Ride – Kelley Point

Today we loaded up the bikes and headed to North Portland towards Kelley Point State Park. We actually stopped at Marine Drive and biked in from there, past I-5. We headed south on North Portland Rd so we could stay on bike paths, and ended up biking through the Smith-Bybee Lake wilderness area. A parking lot there had a bunch of public art pieces, including some carved boulders and tree stumps.

Kelley Point is part of the “40 Mile Loop” set of trails around Portland (the Springwater Corridor is another part of the loop). I was surprised to see a couple of signs that seemed to indicate the end of the loop. Umm, isn’t the whole point of a loop that it has no beginning or end?

The entire ride ended up being a little over 19 miles. Which still feels like a lot to my atrophied biking muscles. But it was a good day, and definitely a park I will want to visit again!

    That first photo made me do a double-take. I wondered if y’all had taken up riding those insanely tiny motorbikes. Maybe I should see the bifocal guy, hmm?
