Ride Report from the First FolderFest - July 12th, 2008   Message List

Re: Ride Report from the First FolderFest - July 12th, 2008

A big THANKS goes out to Alan for taking the initiative to put the
Folder Fest together! For a first time event, I think we had a really
good turnout, and they'll just start getting better.

Also, as David Takemoto-Weerts had suggested, I think a train/bike
ride to Davis would be an awesome idea. There are over 50 miles of
separated bike paths and green belts, and 28 different bike bridges
and bike tunnels, so you could literally ride all day without having
to ride on surface streets. And then there's the opportunity David
had suggested to see some very old and rare bikes from the California
Bicycle History Center. Whatever we decide, I'm looking forward to
the next meeting and ride.

Happy Tailwinds,
Tim "There's-No-Such-Thing-As-Too-Many-Bikes" Bustos

It was great fun, and yes we should definitely do it again. I like the idea of a train ride to Davis and then a ride around town. In SF, how about a ride from...
