Blog - Portland Pedal Power

Portland Pedal Power is proud to be partnered with Bike MS, a great program dedicated to creating a world free of Multiple Sclerosis. It’s a great ride for a great cause, and we’re telling everyone about it. Read on to learn more:

At Bike MS, the ride is just icing on the cake. You’ll also kick back and relax with old friends while you eat mouth-watering BBQ, down ice cold brews, watch a classic movie on our big outdoor screen, and share your adventures from the road.

Our weekend escape in gorgeous Monmouth, Oregon is for every kind of rider. From the “I haven’t been on a bike since uncle Merton repossessed my Schwinn” to “Sure, I can ride 100x faster than the speed of light, can’t you?”

Don’t feel like riding? No problem. You can volunteer, make a donation, or even sponsor the event.

And here’s the best part: The dollars you raise for Bike MS fund critical research, programs, and services that help people who live with multiple sclerosis right here in our neighborhood. How sweet is that?

Bike MS is more than an escape–it’s something you believe in.

People who love Portland Pedal Power love Bike MS. You will, too. So register, volunteer or make a donation today.

Your friendly bicycle delivery riders at Portland Pedal Power couldn’t be happier to announce some great news from TREO Bike Tours. We became connected with TREO recently, when PPP Co-Owners Jenn and Courtney won a TREO Cycling Tour at the BTA Alice Awards, and we’ve been excited to work with them ever since. Our riders have been distributing TREO flyers all around Portland over the past few months, and we’re all super excited about the possibility of taking a company retreat to TREO next summer to check out the beauty of Eastern Oregon. But without further adieu, here’s the news!

TREO TREO Bike Tours is wrapping up a very successful first year catering to cyclists of every persuasion. This fall, the ranch, which also caters to hikers, rafters and hunters, will transition back to its 20-year tradition of catering to bird hunters at the start of pheasant and chukar season.

To help encourage more bookings for 2013 and give back to the cycling community, which helped make their new venture possible, TREO will be giving 10% of their proceeds to top-tier Oregon Cycling advocates. Guests can choose to donate to The Cycle Oregon Fund, The Bicycle Transportation Alliance, or The Community Cycling Center when they book a package for 2013 season. See availability here.
