Elk Rock Gardens - Open Ride

Come Ride With Us... To Elk Rock Gardens

Elk Rock Gardens located in the Dunthorpe area about two miles north of Lake Oswego, just right for an early spring ride. The estate consists of thirteen acres on a high bluff on the western bank of the Willamette River. The property includes approximately six acres of cultivated English-style gardens that were designed by the New York firm of Olmstead and Son who also designed Central Park in New York City and Lithia Park in Ashland, Oregon. They are widely known for their many varieties of magnolias as well as for outstanding examples of many other native and exotic plants.

The ride is open to all scooters and motorcycles, OSC members and non-members. If cold weather riding is not your thing, or family members want to participate, feel free to join us in an car. Meet up at 11:00 AM, kickstands up at noon.

Here is what you need to do to participate:

1. Watch the group riding video for tips on an enjoyable ride.

2. Review the hand signal sheet so that we can coordinate our ride.

3. Learn the route by studying the ride map when it is posted, about two weeks before the ride.

4. Do a safety check on your scooter and arrive at your meet up location with a full tank of gas (A gas station is at 21st and Burnside, just 7 blocks West of Holmans). Here is a suggested Check List.

5. Be at your bike with all gear on except your helmet 15 mins before departure for a ride briefing.

6. Plan on having fun!
