Maybe someone from the Bay Area might want to host a casual ride centered around the Ghirardelli Square Chocolate Festival?

I have no idea for the ride since I've never ridden in the area. I thinking something laid back and easy going. A social type ride.
As for the festival, it starts at 12:00pm each day and ends at 5:00pm. It's $20 for 15 tastings or $10 for 6 tastings. Tasting tickets can be bought in advanced or at the event. Everything is at Ghirardelli Square. There usually wine tasting at the event as well if that's a factor. Honestly, I was going to go have chocolate ride or not. Riding would be a nice way to offset calories.
We'll probably be staying with Julie's sisters that weekend in San Rafael if that helps to stimulate the thought process.

I think 1 hr before the start of the festival we meet at the SEAL sculpture behind AT&T park to chat/picts and what-not : ) it's right between Ferry bldg and caltrans and parking. the 7th sounds ok.
