San Francisco/Marin Ride Rescheduled for Sat, Sept 26

Post by lau7renharp »

I'm sending this on behalf of one of the San Francisco Scooter Girls Ride Planners:

Hey Everyone:

As many of you know the Adventure Ride was called off this past Saturday on account of the weather, but we promised we would pick a weekend for a do-over.

We're DOING IT on Saturday, September 26th!

The ride will leave at 12 noon from Caffe Greco in North Beach.
423 Columbus Ave
San Francisco, CA 94133
(415) 397-6261

There is plenty of bike parking out front and we will be able to grab coffee and pastry before we head out.

The Details again:

Please be gassed up
It will be a longish ride with 3.5 - 4 hours worth of "in the saddle" time
Approximately 100 miles long
We will be riding in Marin
We will be crossing the golden gate bridge both ways - the toll to come back is currently $6.00 cash or you could bring your fast track.
There is no support truck
The views are lovely

It will be a technical ride (this means):
Some of it will be fast - on the freeway
Riders will need to have good Group Riding Skills
There are challenging twisties
Some of these twisties are on narrow downhills and will need to be shared with two way traffic
We will likely encounter some gravel, the odd rock here and there, and a few San Francisco style Grade A pot holes, etc
We do not recommend this ride for our newer riders

Breaks:
We will stop for a short scenery/picture break about an hour into the ride, but there will be no gas available here. We will stop for gas and a 20 - 30 minute break midway at Pt. Reyes Station and we will stop for gas again in Mill Valley before we get ready to head back over the bridge.

We hope you will join us.
