Oil trains hauling Bakken crude oil and Tarsands oil have been exploding across the US and Canada for the last two years. The Port of Vancouver is proposing to have two operational oil terminals (Tesoro-Savage and Nustar).
Additional oil trains are traveling through Vancouver to other terminals. We will take a leisurely paced 6 mile ride starting in Marine Park.
SE Marine Park Wy & Columbia Way
Vancouver, WA
Meet near the playground.
We will be riding along the Columbia River on the river walk, near railroad tracks where oil trains travel, and on public side streets.
The ride will end with an optional protest at the proposed Nustar oil terminal located at 5420 Fruit Valley Rd Vancouver, WA.
***Update*** The protest bike ride was awesome today! Thanks to the bike riders who showed up during the 90+ degree weather. Also thanks to the Portland Mercury newspaper for featuring this bike ride.
