Title: In the area for a bit
Post by: KnightofNi on January 27, 2013, 09:37:04 PM
i'm out here with the incredible family and would like to find some places to ride. I don't suppose anyone is available during the week to  go for a spin while my hosts are busy with real life things like work and raising a child? Afternoons are best as I'm helping MrI with home improvements in the morning.

Please let me know. If this should be posted elsewhere that would be nice too.


also, i'm fine with just grabbing coffee at a vietnamese coffee place. He introduced me to them last night. full bodied coffee.

You're smack in the middle of riding country! How long are you here for? I'm taking Friday off. Plan to go shooting in the AM but could be convinced to pull out the tard in the afternoon.

OK. Check in with me Thursday evening if you're still around then...and you're welcome to hit the range with me Friday too, if that's your kind of thing.

The two of us are recovering from bugs right now.  Not sure we're up for anything real soon, but post up here if things start to materialize for ya.  We might be able to join at some point.

I'll be in SF on Thu (MacWorld) and plan to stick around into the evening & later. Dinner plans with a friend are tentative but I can prolly squeeze in a beer or 2 before then. 'Geist or anywhere serving  [drink].

I'll likely be visiting the other days of MW too so those will be options also.  [thumbsup]

I'm down here too right now. I was thinking of checking out a new moto coffee place in tam junction a little later on. I like to visit the old neighborhood one in a while. So if you want to hang out, Gimme a heads up. Best on the phone. 415 235 3853 wifi not always available.

Belle I was gonna ask if you guys had a couch for a night but not if you have the bug.
Been here for a few days with my pops in the Hospital. Mild heart attack. Moving out of the Hotel today, gonna stay someplace else.

Crap.  I'm in trial, and literally don't have a free moment day or night.  Like others said, in terms of roads, you're right in the thick of it.  35, 9, 84, etc., etc. . . . alll excellent.  If you get a chance, the cliffs of Hwy 1 just north of SF are spectacular. 

FYI -- Joe rides like a moron and prolly shoots like a drunken panda.  And MB rides too fast.  Enjoy.   [thumbsup]

Fair enough. I'll let you know what we plan on doing. We may skip the super bowl and go shooting in South SF on Sunday.

late notice, i know, but i'm thinking of heading to SF tomorrow (friday) night if anyone is up for it.

Post by: MendoDave on February 01, 2013, 06:32:09 AM
This place is really great for lunch. I haven't been for dinner but I'm sure it's great for that too.
Is a real S.F. Must do. It's the oldest restaurant in California. It's not the cheapest place to eat but it shouldn't break the bank either.

Yah, that's how I roll . . .

1)  spend the day in trial
2)  leave work
3)  meet person I only know from the interwebz
4)  drink as much bourbon as possible within an hour
5)  rub my junk against said interwebz friend's backside.

Typical Friday night.
