LF a ride/s

Whats up guys,
so simply put, I want to race. I want to race bad. And i've noticed that I get a supremely better workout when I'm riding with a group or with a partner, particularly at a pace which is on the fast side for me. who inevitably making me chase them.

If anyone knows of any other rides or groups other than the GG park thing, or want to ride at something around cat 5 pace (a little faster maybe, I dunno) that would be awesome. Hit me up, I'm in sf so that would be ideal.

-Miles

Were you out at GGP tonight? It really is a good workout. There's also the Port of Oakland ride.
On the weekends, there's the Pen Velo ride, the Roasters ride, and the Spectrum ride. There's others in the East Bay as well.

Roasters Ride
Day: Saturday
Time: 08:00 AM
Meet: Golden Gate Bridge

8:00am sharp at the south side of the Golden Gate Bridge with a second meeting point of 9:00am at Coffee Roasters, San Anselmo.
A very organic ride which has been going for a long time - people show up every sat at 8:00 unless its a hurricane - there are always riders there. A really competitive 45 mile ride with 17 miles of preamble and 17 of warm down riding out and back from the bridge - 80 miles in total.

Route: San Francisco - San Anselmo - Fairfax - Nicasio - Point Reyes Station - Olema - Samuel Taylor Park - Fairfax - San Francisco.
