Weekend Fixed Ride - SF/Bay Area

I know I probably could have put this in the Regional Discussions, but I figured most of FG riders probably don't hang out there too much.

Anyway, just wondering if anyone in the SF/Bay Area would be interested in getting together for low-key (no MASH/Macaframa/Lucas Brunelle kinda stuff), fun rides around SF or the East Bay. Ideally, we could meet early-ish to grab coffee and discuss a route/destination. Then ride, and end up at a cool lunch spot for food, beers, whatever.

Maybe, if enough people are interested we could put something together. This could be a great way to get out and explore more and make some new friends. I think it goes without saying, but I'll put it out there anyway: Only positive attitudes. All skill levels welcome.

Let me know...
