Hey,
Just bumping this thread to remind all of you to come check out this ride. I've done it the past 2 fridays and am excited for the next one.
I know how a lot of you SF kids like to hang out in parking lots and stuff and not really ride anywhere but this ride kicks ass.
It's about a 26 mile round trip from Oakland to Richmond and back, riding mostly along the bay trail, with 2 stops to drink and a raging, twisty race to the far point of the Richmond marina. On top of that you get to hang out at montanovelo, the best bike shop I've found in the bay area, and end up at Lane-Splitters for pizza and beer.
I know the east bay can seem like a really distant place at times, but it's only like, 4 BART stops form embarcadero to macarthur station, then a 1 mile ride to the shop:

Folks generally meet up at 7PM and leave by 730
hope to see you there, the more the merrier.
