Cyrus is invading San Francisco Oct 3-7

What sort of weather can I be expecting on the ride?


I just need to know what gear of mine I should bring, outside of the normal helmet, boots, gloves, etc.


do most of you guys wear leather or textile?

Technically, I brought up that you needed a bike and that you had an s4r, and DrunkenMonkey vouched for ya.  It was easier to ask DQ to than Michael Moore (who has a Streetfighter and his 900, that lucky bastard) since DQ's bikes are in SF proper.  

So, tentatively a short ride early on Sunday (it might be foggy in the early morning in the North Bay, but we'll be taking it easy) and a 'geist meet-up Mon night?

The weather for the ride will likely be a bit cold and foggy.  I always assume it's gonna be high 50s,, low 60s when I leave in the morning.  It's hard to tell because right there on the coast, it's generally really sunny later in the day, but cold and foggy early.  Since it's an early morning ride, it's unlikely that you'll see temps over 70 even by the time we get back to SF.  Most of us wear leather, but the ride itself doesn't have any fast bits (aka triple digit sweepers).  It's a LOT of slow, tight turns.  If you're midget-sized like me, I have some extra gear you can wear.

Depending on your schedule and when you need to get back to your conference, we can vary the ride (i.e. make it a wee bit longer).

Typically foggy in the morning, clearing up during the day. Temps around 50-75. You can watch the multi-hour forecast here:

Bring whatever you're comfortable with. You'll want something with some armor though. Textiles often fit better into suitcases, but we ride with whatever. Also, if you need any gear, keep in mind that the Dainese store is here

Thanks to the Monkey!!!



Monday night works for me 



Thanks for all the advice on gear. I have a big ass suitcase, so I can fit my gear in there and obviously the helmet comes on board with me.

I am midget sized too

Why did you have to tell me that?

[desmoquattro]

Why did you have to tell me that?

Because we're just that evil

That's just wrong.



I've always stuck to Alpinestars, resisting temptation for Dianese..........

They're all near each other. You know-the gear district on fourth?

You folks have no idea what you're in for.

Shit, why you hating on me?!?!?!?!?

You know I am a good person.

All - Don't listen to this character

note: I was joking with Nate 


Talked to Joe for a while last night. Looking forward to the ride Sunday 

[Spidey]

Cyrus, what time do you need to be back on Sunday morn? 

[mostrobelle]

Is this an invite-only deal or an open-to-all ride?  I might be interested in a Sunday ride, but I need to make some shelves, so I can't be screwin' around all day with you hosers.  Unless it's an invite-only deal...and then I guess I'll just shut up.
