Happy Olympic and Paralympic Day! 🌎🏅♿

Today, we celebrate the power of sport to bring people together, break barriers, and create opportunities for athletes of all abilities. Observed each year on June 23, Olympic and Paralympic Day recognizes the values of excellence, determination, inclusion, and community that unite people around the world.

We also want to recognize and thank the incredible Paralympians who are part of Team ASNW—as athletes, coaches, volunteers, staff, and supporters. Your dedication, leadership, and passion continue to strengthen the adaptive sports movement both locally and globally. We are grateful for everything you do to help create more inclusive opportunities through sport.

Want to try adaptive mountain biking but don't know how to get started? Check out what are friends at Oregon Adaptive Sports and Oregon Spinal Cord Injury Connection are doing this Saturday, June 27th. Registration information in the original post. Sign up now!

Join Oregon Adaptive Sports and Oregon Spinal Cord Injury Connection for a weekend of adaptive mountain biking, skill development, and community connection at beautiful Chehalem Ridge Nature Park. Whether you are brand new to adaptive mountain biking or an experienced rider looking to build your skills, this event offers a fun and supportive opportunity to get out on the trails.

Participants will register for individual one hour riding sessions facilitated by experienced instructors from Oregon Adaptive Sports. During your session, you may have the opportunity to try different adaptive mountain bike models, work on developing and refining your riding skills, and enjoy a guided trail ride tailored to your experience level and goals.

Participants may register for up for multiple sessions throughout the weekend. Sessions can be scheduled back-to-back, separated by a break, or spread across both days. If you choose to register for two sessions on the same day, we encourage scheduling a break between rides to allow time for rest and recovery.

If you already own an adaptive mountain bike, you are welcome to bring your own equipment and participate alongside OAS instructors. This can be a great opportunity to receive coaching, improve your riding skills, and gain confidence on the trails.

If you are unfamiliar with Oregon Adaptive Sports, we encourage you to learn more about their programs and adaptive recreation opportunities. OAS has been a leader in adaptive outdoor recreation throughout Oregon, helping individuals of all abilities experience the benefits of outdoor adventure.

The event will take place at Chehalem Ridge Nature Park, a beautiful Metro park featuring accessible parking, restrooms, covered gathering areas, and miles of scenic trails. In addition to riding, we invite participants, family members, friends, and volunteers to spend time together throughout the day. Drinks and snacks will be available, and we hope you'll stick around between rides to connect with fellow riders and enjoy everything the park has to offer.

Register for one-hour time slots.
