Get your active on in Pdx

Portland is one of (if not #1) America’s friendliest bike cities with plenty of paths. (Portland is the only city I know where bikers can get ticketed for violating traffic signs.) There are also plenty of hashing groups to run with – these groups bill themselves as a drinking group with a running problem . If you don’t own a bike an are in a 12 step program then maybe the aforementioned groups aren’t for you. Here are a few organizations to check out to get your active on:

Recess Time (www.recesstimesports.com) gives young professional’s get a chance to relive there childhood playing dodgeball and kickball except there is no fifth period to interupt!!! Check it out!

Under Dog Portland (www.underdogportland.com) is another multisport league offering dodgeball, kickball and ultimate (among others).

Meet Up (www.meetup.com) offers a wide variety of recreational activies. Check out The Portland Adventurers Meet Up group. It has 373 members! This is key since MU groups tend to be less organized unless there is a critical mass.

If you know of a hidden Portland activty gem, please, by all means, let us know. We’ll blog about it and let the world know or whoever reads our posts.
