Dusk & The City: A Spooky SF Ghetto Night Ride (Sun 2/19, 2:30 PM, SF)

[mehran]

Details and RSVP === >HERE !!!

This is one of my favorite rides through everyone’s favorite city. But instead of our usual late night ride which ends after midnight, we’ll start a little earlier and finish the ride around 8_ish. This way people can get home before it gets really cold.

We’ll be riding the hills, peaks and valleys. We’ll zip through the ghettos, pass the mansions and view the scenery very few people get to see in a week let alone in a single evening.

This ride is generally within posted speed limits, but the route is highly technical, scary, spooky, challenging and -- at the same time – exhilarating, breathtaking and absolutely positively fun.

• When: Sunday 2/19/12, Arrive by 2:30 PM, KSU 3:00 PM

• Where: Coffee Bar SF, 499 Florida Street (at Mariposa)
San Francisco CA ~ (415) 551-8100 ~ http://coffeebar-usa.com


We’ll meet at 2:30 PM for coffee and gossip. KSU is at 3:00 PM. I will post a list of regrouping spots, so in case someone gets separated due to a traffic light or something, they can just head straight to the next stop. We’ll stop for coffee/snack/dinner around 6_ish. After break we’ll ride for another hour or so and end the ride around 8 PM.

• Pace: Not too slow. Not too fast. Just right.

• Gear: Head to toe. It'll be cold, so wear layers.

• Motorcycle: Yes, please bring it with you ;-)

• Route: ~ 35 (+/-) miles over 5-6 hours


Note: RAIN WILL POSTPONE THE RIDE



Words of Wisdom:

~ Proper gear, a working machine and gas in the tank is highly recommended.
~ Ride within your comfort zone and leave room for bad karma.
~ I may pass slower traffic when it's safe. You don't have to. Remember, someone will wait for you at turns, so just relax and have fun.
~ I maintain the Pace according to road conditions with safety of all riders in mind. Be mindful of others in the group. Let faster riders get ahead of you by moving to the right and signaling them to pass you. And if you want to pass the rider(s) who are in front of you, make sure to do so safely and without startling them.
~ Keep an eye for the rider(s) behind you so they won't take a wrong turn. If they get lost, you'll buy their lunch
