Ride details

Where we are meeting

Assembly Area

The assembly area has been moved again this year but only a little. A family-oriented theatre production in a large tent was recently erected adjacent to last year's ride assembly area. Therefore, the ride assembly area has been moved to another side of the same fountain where we will be less visible to families attending the show. See the map on the right.

Schedule

  • 12 noon: Gather. Self safety-inspections. Group consensus on route details. Bike/body decoration (Professional body painting provided).
  • 1 pm: Ride starts
  • 5 pm (approx): Ride finishes back where it started.

Weather

Check local weather at the following sites:

Getting there

If you live out of town, please try to use public transportion to get to the start of the ride. Parking in the area is limited and expensive. Both BART and CalTrain take bicycles. Check out these websites for details:


Alternative Riders

Being California, a few skaters usually join us. Some skaters join us repeatedly! Skaters can create an abbreviated route linking level grades from the beginning and ending route segments. But it may not be a good idea to try to skate down Lombard Street! We might stop there for pictures. We'll decide that right before we ride.

History

At the 2009 event there were around 120 riders. We gather starting at noon near the North end of Justin Herman Plaza (just North of the huge fountain with all of the cubic shapes) and head out at about 1 PM when the body painters have done their work. We keep a steady pace heading to almost the Golden Gate Park (we stop, rest and then turn around in the Panhandle) and back. We also stop and rest (and pose for photos) on the Polk St. steps of City Hall (there is usually an event going on in the Civic Center Park).
