A squad of local cyclists gathered Saturday to clear leaves, garbage, dirt, ivy and moss from the northern starting point of the Interstate 205 bike path — a chore they’ve accepted regularly over the past 15 years.

The 18 1/2-mile bike path begins at the end of Southeast 23rd Street just west of the I-205 Bridge in Vancouver.
