If it’s not rainy:
Friday 2/4: joining the SF Bike Party, a slow-rolling evening with hundreds of cyclists and several big bike-mounted stereos (photos of the last one). Just 9 miles. 7:30pm meetup at Civic Center.
Sunday 2/6: Alpine Dam. A beautiful and hilly 50-60 mile ride, meeting 9:30AM at Velo Rouge Cafe. No rider left behind, probably a stop in Fairfax for some food afterwards, no commitment to making it back in time to watch That Sporting Event (hey, at least the roads should be empty…).
two weeks off. then:
Sunday 2/20 [date change!]: By request, a shorter ride – shake off those bikeless winter months or years: Meeting in the Mission some time in the morning (9ish?), biking to the ocean & Trouble Coffee and back, about 14 miles round trip. Possible addition: brunch at Outerlands.
p.s. Coming in late February or March: two 50ish-mile East Bay rides, trying subsets of the Grizzly Peak Century route (Three Bears, etc).
