Agenda

"Join your fellow SFBC members on a fun & tasty ride to some of SF's top ice cream Shops! We'll ride and sample at least 6 top-rated creameries across the city where we'll stop to taste flavors and socialize. The ride will be a leisurely 10-12 miles with at least 6 shops and will include a few hills to work off the extra calories. Child riders (14 or younger) are discouraged, since this ride will require some skilled street riding. Bring a lock, water bottle, and ice cream money & hope for a hot day!"

"Experience the National Parks bordering the Golden Gate. Join Ranger James Osborne for this fun and strenuous 12-mile loop bike ride that begins in the Presidio, spans the Golden Gate Bridge, then descends into the peaceful valley in the Marin Headlands. You will gain a unique perspective on the Bay Area Ridge Trail and the Golden Gate, and get a terrific workout! For experienced riders with hybrid bikes (10 miles is paved; 2 is dirt trail)."

"Come join Different Spokes (DSSF), the San Francisco Bay Area's GLBT cycling club for our monthly Jersey Ride, held the second Saturday of each month. All are welcome. The ride offers different distance and level options. The ride starts from Peet's in the Castro. There are three options so you can go at your own pace and distance. The rides split and regroup in Tiburon where we have lunch together as a group. Rain cancels."

"Declare your independence from oil when you pedal your way to an SFBC Energizer Station on Gas-Free Fridays to fuel up on coffee, tea and snacks. The SFBC wants to help more people substitute one short car trip with a bicycle trip just one day a week. In San Francisco, half of all driving trips are under two miles in length -- a distance easily traveled by bicycle. So, grab your bike and encourage a friend or coworker to go gas free."

"The SFBC Bike Buddies hit the street to acquaint new riders with common or challenging bike commute routes in San Francisco with a Route Ride. An experienced bike commuter leads these rides at an easy pace; new riders are encouraged. In July, learn the best commute route from the Civic Center to Ocean Beach via the Sunset. If an impromptu Happy Hour ensues, even better! Heavy rain cancels."

"This SFBC tradition every second and fourth Wednesday has been happening for as long as we can remember, but newcomers are always welcome. So stop by, snack on tasty treats, chat with fellow cyclists, and help us keep our organization rolling. Dinner is provided. Bring a friend - the more the merrier! Don't forget to bring up your bike!"

"CounterPULSE and Shaping San Francisco director Chris Carlsson conducts 4-hour historical tours of San Francisco by bicycle. Bring a snack and water."
