Rides this week
Two social rides organized by others this week:
Wednesday: Butterlap (7pm at the Ferry Building, a friendly 17 miles around the city with a few dozen people, mostly flat but two notable hills, Bender's afterwards for a bit). [edit: was raining at 6pm, didn't go]
Friday: SF Bike Party (12-mile ultra-casual bike party with music, a few stops, and 400+ cyclists). This month, in Potrero/Dogpatch/Bayshore.
And this weekend, something more ambitious I've talked to a few of you about:
Sunday: A 53-mile, quite hilly BART-to-BART East Bay ride (Berkeley, part of "Three Bears" loop, reservoirs, Port Costa, etc -- several roads I've never biked on). Maybe a 9am start at the Berkeley BART, though I could be convinced to start later. [edit: looked like rain, postponed to next Sunday]
Butter Lap
Another fine Butterlap (Butter Lap?). Cold, clear, crisp, like butter on the tongue. Eric and rif joined for the first time, and I took the rack-mounted bike stereo on its first extended ride and managed not to crash while changing music.
It takes me a few rides to remember names, but I chatted with Greg, Matt, and Meli for a while: bikes! supermarket street sweep! the mills and general bay area experimental music scene! I also just realized that Meli is the force behind the Bikes And The City blog.

Two planned (shorter, evening) rides
(assuming it's not raining):
Wednesday 12/15: Butterlap with a group of 20-40 friendly strangers. I may bring the bike stereo.
Sunday 12/19: SFBC-organized evening ride around San Francisco to tour the elaborate Christmas light displays. See http://www.sfbike.org/?chain and scroll down.
Roads are slick these days-- ride safe.
Recent ride: City Lap
I put together a last-minute city ride Saturday afternoon following the Butter Lap route (about 20 miles, through parks and along the ocean).
Unfortunately, I had bike issues (two flats and a damaged tire-- all due to the edge of my brake pad rubbing against my tire and finally wearing through the side wall) which delayed us an hour and led to the group splitting up. It was also cold and foggy all day, which made the beach less exciting. A few of us finished the loop and then headed to Speakeasy Brewery for their 13th Anniversary party.
Butter lap, this Wednesday, 7pm, ferry building
All are welcome.
My last pre-Iowa ride.
