Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer?

2006 BFFG MnG II

After re-reading part of this thread I couldn't help but think are we going to put on another Meat-n-Greet this year? (that thread is hilarious, if you have time to read some of it do it)

As I recall it was determined that the MNG II would be in SF sometime in late summer. Or maybe the location is still to be determined. ??

Can we bring back the love for a second year?

I would have been in San Fran the first week of August for a family gathering but the Gods of Murphy's Law struck this week so the savings account took a hit.

Depending on when in August I'd be interested. August will be busy for me.
