Title: Second Saturday San Francisco Circuit 12/12 [Group Ride]
Post by: togo on November 16, 2020, 12:18:04 PM: Scenic route like GnarlMarx's in November, but ending up on Treasure Island with great views of SF skyline and Eastern Span of the Bay Bridge.

More details to come. I'll ride the Zero this time.

It'll be similar to the one GnarlMarx organized in November, Zero FX led the pack, so you don't need a huge PowerTank or Energica Plus battery to do this.

Greetings Bay-Area electric motorcycle riders! It's time for the second Second Saturday San Francisco Circuit, an electric motorcycle group ride.

We'll meet by the charge point in the big parking lot south of China Basin park next to Pier 50 in San Francisco. Meetup at 10:30 am, kickstands up at 10:50.

The route is a big lap around the city inspired by the "butterlap" beloved by SF cyclists. We'll loop around the city going up along the embarcadero, along the marina green into the presidio, then we'll stop at the Battery East Vista (perfect, right?) to decide if we want to tack on a trip across the Golden Gate to headlands twisties and out to point bonita (depending on fog and group feeling about the toll), then head back through land's end, down the coast by the beach, and back across the city through the park.

We'll shoot to continue this on subsequent second Saturdays of the month moving forward--in case you are interested, but can't make it to this one.
