New Year’s Evolution!

December 30, 2015 by Marketing

This last year was an epic one for Portland Pedal Power, with more of everything: more cargo bikes loaded down with piping hot food, saucy new vendors, more parties and events, brand new staffers, and a growing list of sponsors who align with our mission — to fuel Portland with sustainable bike delivery.

This last year we painted the town with local sponsors like Bowery Bagels, Sundown Concerts (Ecotrust), Gluten Free Gem Bakery, Providence #FinishCancer, Willamette Week Give!Guide, Pacific Power, PointWest Credit Union, BTA Bike Commute Challenge, Treo Bike Tours, Cambia Portland Classic, the GoGreen Conference, the Portland Art Museum, USAgencies, GenZe, Whole Foods, and OPB.

We cruised some of the best and most attended local events this last summer too: the Walk MS, Green Drinks, PDX Beer Week, Portland Pride, Bike MS Willamette Valley, Breakfast on the Bridges, Sundown Concerts, Sunday Parkways, BridgePedal 2015, the Portland Classic Tournament, PSU Farmer’s Market, Bite of Oregon, Oregon Brew Fest, Pecha Kucha Night, and the Bicycle Commute Challenge!

Looking forward, we plan on growing and further evolving in 2016. We will unveil some exciting new website changes in the coming days. We’ll continue to work to provide our hungry customers with the best service, superior food selection, and the best catering by bike this side of the Mississippi. We will continue to build community partnerships to boost our favorite local businesses and brands, providing unique visibility and friendly brand ambassadors on our bikes.

PPP is committed to supporting sustainable business and growth in the city we love. We hope you’ll join us in ushering in a better future.

Cheers to the coming year! Power to the Pedal!

Get Away From it all with TREO Bike Tours!

February 17, 2015 by Jon Elias

Sometimes, you’ve just got to get away. Not just taking a day off and going to the waterfront for the afternoon, but actually get away from it all. Somewhere away from cellphone coverage, the constant moisture in the air, and the glare of the computer screen. Does such a place exist? And where do I sign up?

TREO Ranch is a unique destination for cycling clubs, team building, executive and corporate retreats, as well as family and group vacations. You can escape the day-to-day grind by traveling to Eastern Oregon, where you’ll see a countryside unlike anything you may find on the western side of the cascades.

TREO Bike Tours offers group bike tours with full support. Each ride is all inclusive, meaning you get a full set of meals, full ride support for any mechanical issues that may come up, micro beer and soda on tap, and even a hot tub for those extra long rides.

TREO takes you through the side of Oregon less traveled. You will experience both gravel and paved roads (and most importantly, carless roads!) traversing both high a low altitudes. You can customize your trek, pick and choose which routes your group can enjoy based on the skill level (from intermediate to beyond advanced) and interest (speed, distance, and elevation).

During your bike tour, experience hearty meals and comfortable lodging at TREO’s western guest ranch near the Hardman Ghost Town in Eastern Oregon. Their secluded and comfortable 3200-sq-ft guest house has 12 beds and sits on a 300-acre farm with the nearest neighbors miles away. After a long ride, you can enjoy a leisurely soak in the six-person hot tub, enjoy a game of pool, pull a cold one from your personal tap, kick back with the air conditioner on their comfy couches or relax outside in the shade.

Cycling might be your thing, but what about your cousin Larry, who may be less enthusiastic? Larry doesn’t have to miss out; TREO also has Multi-Sport Adventures, like Clay Pigeons, Target Shooting, hiking through Glutton Falls, and even Calf Roping for the ladies!

Check out a brief snapshot of what you’ll see when you sign up for TREO Bike Tours:

Jenn had the opportunity to go on a TREO Bike Tour in July of 2013. Check out what she had to say about her experience with TREO.

Ready for a once in a lifetime experience? TREO is accepting reservations for Corporate Retreats, so you can start team building like never before. Schedule your escape now to reserve the best times this spring and summer.

TREO to donate 10% to Oregon Cycling Advocates!

August 27, 2013 by Brook

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.
