About
It's a really pretty bike ride to the PDX Airport. And from inner NE Portland it's about the same travel time on a bicycle as in a car. There's no particular reason why anyone who likes to ride a bike should drive to the airport if you're just going somewhere for a week and carrying light luggage.
So, let's do it for fun. To get to know the route, learn the couple tricky turns between 72nd and Alberta and the airport itself. Learn the two bike parking areas, consider what type of bike and lock to bring if you're parking for a week.
I'll be flying away from the airport, so everyone else can either take MAX back or retrace steps as a group. Or you can join me and come to Utah ;^)
