The Urban Assault Ride™ is a funky bike scavenger hunt that involves street-smart riding, obstacle courses, and a huge after party. Mental muscle is just as important as bike skills as teams of 2 choose their own course to checkpoints around the city.

I attended the Portland Bike Summit last Friday and Saturday. There were six PUMP members that I know in attendance. We had Roger Louton, Tom Archer, Paul Barlow, Wayne Naillon, Bob Crispin, and myself. There were also representives from COTA and IMBA.

Hill Abell, IMBA President was the keynote speaker and he did a spectacular job. Tim Blumenthal a former executive director of IMBA was also in attendance. I was able to sit down and talk with both of them on Saturday and it was great getting opinions and thoughts from national bike advocates.
