So it's monday, and the ride yesterday was really fun. Nice route, good views, and we got to play around for a while in the park. Seems like there's a lot of interest in doing another ride soon.
I have a fun idea for a ride but would like to see what is the best day for all you other fixed/ss guys.
I have thursday and friday off of work so I'm pretty open, what about you guys?

If it's on a weekend I'll go into the city for it. Be nice to get out of town.

I know that dolface and 46x17 won't be able to make it on friday, is there anyone else who would object to a friday ride? This is x-mas eve, so you probably have off work/school.
FYI, the route for this ride will revolve around the different slides in SF. These are concrete slides that you need cardboard to slide down, it's pretty fun and there are enough of them scattered around to make a decent route I think (although Blast Radius needs to show me where Acme is).
