Anyone wanna be a Ruby-crowned Kinglet for Halloween? This tiny songbird with the darling eyes and fine scarlet mohawk can be found flitting about in the forest looking for little bugs and spiders. Keep an eye out for him this Saturday as we dodge cobwebs along the Banks-Vernonia Trail during our spooky Halloween costume ride to the creepy town of Banks. Thank the good Goblins ride leader Shelly C. is bringing us hot chocolate for a splash of homemade comfort in the dark woods!

Now, check out the YouTube videos by @lesleythebirdnerd to learn more about the kinglet with the ruby crown...

Tri Team PDX and friends!

Next time you’re riding or running along Marine Drive, pop into Broughton Beach and check out the colorful decorations on the friendly wood pillars we like to call “the teeth.” This #natureart was installed by the Broughton Beach Ballenas (cold water swim team), and will be monitored daily to ensure the Columbia River is kept clean and free of yarn.

If you’re interested in safely exploring the intrepid wonders of cold water, the Ballenas——who intentionally support @columbiariverkeeper as they work closely with Northwest Indigenous tribes to protect the river——are offering a free talk TONIGHT on “How to Start Your Own Cold Water Swim Group.” It will be informative and fun, and if you come, it might just lead to something magical...

Reach out to Suzy at chrisandsuzo@yahoo.com for the zoom link and join the Ballenas for a 7 pm start!

We had so much fun yesterday on our clean-up walk to swim training! Do you think we made the PDX cats happy as we put our grabbers to good use? Sure hope so!

@adoptoneblock — thanks for giving us the tools to help keep Portland splashy and green!

Wanna know what makes a Great Blue Heron happy? Clean water. Wanna know who else loves clean water? Us peeps on earth! In fact, water makes up 71% of most life on the planet. It’s the common bond between all of us warm and cold blooded beings.

Dial down this big picture narrative to a microcosmic moment in April, 2016, when Tri Team PdX’ers cleaned up Newberry Road——way up in the West Hills above Sauvie Island. Thanks to them, a little less plastic filled storm drains when the rains came, and herons, in turn, were helped.

Let’s let their micro-moment actions inspire a macro-movement!

Contact elsa@tripdx.com and abbiepeterman@gmail.com to get involved in all or part of a 5 mile clean-up walk from North Portland to Broughton Beach on Saturday, October 9th, from 8 am to 4 pm, followed by an adventure swim to train and appreciate wildlife. @supernovaveganpdx has kindly offered to host us for a lunch break, so please be sure to give them some love next time you visit Alberta Street!

If you can’t make it this time but want to join us in spirit, sign up to @adoptoneblock in your own neighborhood and ensure no pesky plastics get left lying beside a storm drain when the rains come again. Peeps on the streets will thank you and be like, “I wanna help a heron, too!”

Then, everyone will realize that herons aren’t actually blue... but “wow,” they’ll say, “they sure are great.”

Check out that colorful crew on bike aid station duty at Best in the West!

We set up camp on the South Santiam in ample time to cheer on the first riders rolling through. For the next few hours, we kept folks fueled and hydrated, pumped tires, made makeshift raincoats, gave a pain med, guarded and inspected nice bikes (stamped with @outputspeedlab stickers), and supported our very own TTPDX athletes Morgan and Karen as they took on the 70.3 and Olympic distance races.

It was a beautiful day, with a backdrop of pattering rain on our canopy top. When it came time to go, we left our spot on the South Santiam cleaner than before, so perhaps the soil there will grow wildflowers.

Thank you, @bestinthewestevents, for helping us recreate safely in the lovely land of Sweet Home. We will be back again, as always!
