Northern California - Tour de Fat - Sat. July 19th.

This looks like a fun event. Big bike party at GG Park on Saturday. I'm planning to go. Anyone want to join me?

Follow Your Folly All Day Long
Bike Parade Kick-Off
What is a bike party without a bike ride? Kick-off the day with us in your San Francisco best at 9am for a fun and frolicking ride through Golden Gate Park and beyond! The optional $5 ride donation goes to support the bicycle advocacy work of the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition and the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council. It'll be a hoot and a holler, we promise.

Afternoon Ballyhoo
Two parts bike rodeo and one part circus, starting at noon, there are fire-jumping bike acts, cycling games, live music, tasty eats and great beer, of course - and all proceeds benefit two great nonprofits: the SFBC & the Bay Area Ridge Trails Council!

But wait, there's more!
While at the park, look for opportunities to wrench on your bike, get your face painted, eat some good food, have a beer and join our cycling circus of sensory splendor.

This is one of the best events in the park in the summer to celebrate BIKES! Don't miss it.
Free! Free! Free!

Now we know what you are thinking...how much is this grand fete going to cost me? The answer is nothing! We are all about FREE! So....how is this a fund raiser? All proceeds from beer sales ($5 for 16 oz.) will benefit the San Francisco Bike Coalition, and The Bay Area Ridge Trail Council. We'll bring the beer and you just bring your bike! (FREE Valet bike parking provided--of course!)

Bump...

So far, it's just me and NigelHealy (new to NorCal, transplant from UK) going to this. We're taking the CalTrain that arrives SF at 8:36 and riding to GG Park to join the morning ride. Then, it's party time!

Anyone else want to join in?

I don't get it. Is this a ride or a party?

There's a 2 hour costumed ride in the morning. Then PARTY!

I may take the kids after the Canada TT and possibly the Pen Velo ride.

Ahh, the good ole wiggle. Sadly I am going to miss the event, but will be at the PV ride on Sat.

I'm not well known to the group but I'll be there. I'de say look for the bald guy in the kilt but I'm not sure that'll narrow it down much.

I'm going to see if I can join the group after the Canada TT if the times work out.

Marco did it, considering the stop across from Roberts even if the pack is passing when your at your car you'll have time.

Anyhow, I'll see you guys at the TdF. Taking the fam (not on bikes though).
