| Zoo Bomb Gallery / ZooBomb-Map This run is one of the best inner city runs in the Portland area. It is about 3 miles long with 2 very fast str8-aways (40 + mph) and plenty of corners as you can see. Some are smooth and easy and some are rough and technical. The biggest WARNING is TRAFFIC. The best time to do it is late at night when traffic is low and you can see headlights farther away giving you more time to slow down or stop. However it's recommended to do it during the day first to get the feel of the road and see the varied obstacles in the pavement. Just EXERCISE CAUTION and do not attempt unless you know how to FOOTBRAKE at speed. The Eastsiders and other Portland area riders meet up with Mini-bike Zoo Bombers on dry Sunday nights for their weekly run starting at approx. 10:15pm. Most of the time the skaters meet up about 9pm and do a couple runs before then. Check the Forum for details and meeting up with others. Featured pics show how to get to the top and the full run in detail including hazards and the entry to the newly repaved SwitchBacks run, ENJOY and ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET !!! |
