Looks like the weather forecast this weekend is sunny and dry(not sure if that entails to warm).

I'm looking for fellow MOBsters interested in a noob/mellow ride around the SF/Peninsula - Less Technical Route... if possible..

I prefer Saturday morning, but if the consensus calls out for Sunday, I am willing to participate as well, as long as its no later than lunch time.

Cheers! [beer]

I can ride either day for a few hours, but will have to head back early.

Sat: other stuff after noon-ish
Sun: superbowl pre-game  [drink] and stuff after noon-ish

My weekend is very up in the air, but I will take a look at whatever is decided as the "plan" and if I can make it, I will.  Thanks for suggesting this!
My hovercraft is full of eels.

Sat is out for me. Sunday is questionable since my lame friends still haven't decided what to do for Superbowl. If I miss this one, hope there will be similar rides in the near future.

We can shoot for the following weekend to get a better turnout - superbowl weekend seem to deter other peeps from making it this weekend...

Hey hey hey! It's Monday-no changing your mind now-there's all week for people to turn up!

Also, superbowl weekend is friggin' ideal for a ride through the twisties-every squid and other idiot will be glued to a tv. That'll probably mean limited LEO presence. Let's not get hasty here.


Besides, the weekend after is going to be chock full with everyone helping me move   ;D

Careful out there -- roads are slippy this time of year even if it's a dry day...  A lot of ppl buying it lately...

Not really changing my mind here. I'm up for whatever the consensus is, as long as its early and before noon.  Ummm: Twisties?? :o  Does Mellow and Twisties ever mix well?

Very true, and it will be worse earlier in the morning.  Best to have a bit of a later start to let things dry out, or else wait a few weeks.

I'm up for it as long as the wife lets me and you all are willing to ride with someone on an inferior brand :(

*I think Saturday would work best for me if it comes down to a vote :-)
I love my RED 620!

I am in no hurry to ride the twisties hence i am looking for a mellow/noob ride.

Hopefully there are others in the same boat as i am who would like to take the same approach.
