Homer is built - I recently acquired it from another member - but my plan is to switch up the setup sooner than later.
I've been eyeing openings in Point Reyes for a quick overnight or two. I did an S24O during the week on Angel Island recently, and after the last ferry, it was just myself on one side of the island and two families on the other side. I hadn't been there in years, and it was way more fun this time with the bike. I ride road more than gravel. Once or twice a week I typically head out Wildcat Canyon Rd or Tunnel/Skyline for 25 - 50 mile loops. I am a somewhat recent transplant from SF, but could still use the encouragement of a group to explore new routes near and far. -z in Oakland On Saturday, August 9, 2025 at 3:27:37 PM UTC-7 Lucia Matioli wrote: > Hey there! > > I figured I’d “see you” around here. > Love it.
