This one is a little different. I'm bringing leftovers Blacksheep bakery had when the closed for the day on Thursday. Lots of yummy goodness. I must admit I've been eating a lot of it. So besides free food I'm also combining it with the start of the scavenger hunt ride, so look to that event for the location. Should be next in the list.

(Starts & Ends at the Bluffs)It's AnomaLily's bday and we're celebrating with a scavenger hunt all over the city of Portland. Very few rules & a very long list of crazy items to find, you've got 5 hours to make it happen. Come with a team of four people (and their bikes) and a bike map. A cargo trailer wouldn't hurt!
Points are given for style, sass, and demonstrated knowledge about the birthday lass. Special prize for creative laziness.
Because the birthday girl is a Shakespeare nerd, donkey/sprite costumes are encouraged.
Winning party wins something. Not to mention a trophy.
Spectators welcome! Mystery afterparty
