This event will include:
-Good vibes and a FUN time
-Beginner-friendly mix of cycling routes that are challenging
-Beef Hotdogs, smores, and more over a campfire
-Breakfast & Coffee
-Campfire stories

We will explore the Golden Gate Bridge, enjoy breathtaking ocean views, and camp under the stars at a scenic campground along the way.

Whether you are a seasoned cyclist or a beginner looking to experience the joys of bicycle touring, this event is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts of all levels. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Northern California, meet like-minded adventurers, and create unforgettable memories on this Coastal Camping Adventure with our Bicycle Touring.

**if you cant make this trip, please please change your RSVP status if would like to make future trips, I will be hosting monthly events so stay tuned!**

The time has come to have our annual holiday party with gifts and foods and smiles and booze!
Sree's house is near the Coliseum BART station (1.5 miles). Car parking on the street. Safe bike parking on site.
There's a small, friendly dog in the house.

How to keep the group alive
We also want to talk about how to keep this group alive,.

Please bring a potluck item of food or drink to share.
And (optionally), a wrapped, inexpensive but functional and desirable item of biking or camping gear to participate in the Bay Area's BEST white elephant gift swap! Your used parts bin is a great source for your gift!
(Often there's a few "luxury" items that make the game very interesting).

This group has provided a lot in the past and it looks like we were not able to pickup the pace post covid. We would like to use this time to discuss little bit on the future of the group and ride ideas as well.

Note: There is a hottub to hangout for the afterparty..!

Here's the rules for the optional white elephant gift swaps:

1. Each Guest brings a wrapped gift
2. Draw numbers for order
3. Person #1 chooses a gift. Person #2 can either steal that gift or choose a new one to open.
4. If your gift is stolen, you choose a new gift to open.
5. Continue til everything is opened.
