Re:
Yeah,second that thought-Way too cool for me, that's one of the reason why I live here
82 F. and sunny Today-Monday- It's a Holiday here in the US today, so we ran into a lot of people out and about when we first went into the woods. But as soon as we started climbing and got further up in elevation and away from road access, the numbers dropped dramatically, as always.We rode across the Magic Bridge up by the lakes and stopped for a break just past there, where I snapped my front derailleur cable. Oh well, stuff happens, and we were already at the top, so an easy descent back home...

I'm in the Bay Area in August, hopefully get out to Fairfax and the museum. Anywhere you recommend to buy a second hand bike?

What kind of bike are you looking for? An old collector's bike, or a more modern one? Road or mountain? Price range? If you just want to go for some Mtb rides around here, I can probably round up a free loaner for you to ride while you are here-we'll show you around our neighborhood...Patxxnick1975":2lqnn607 said:

Re:
That's very kind of you. Was thinking about an old cheap mtb, nothing special, to go round with the kids etc (little kids - need to get a trailer), which i could basically give away at the end when we head home. We are there for a month so figured buying something cheap would work out better than renting.
We are staying in SF, but given we have a bit of time should be able to get out of the city, especially on the weekends
(Separately - if I were to happened across something really nice then i might take the opportunity!)

Re:
We have a used bike store here in San Rafael called "Trips for Kids" that sell used bikes and parts that they get donated to help for their charity. They have lots of bikes of all kinds, and the prices are fairly inexpensive. I will hook you up with them when you get here-just PM me ahead of time. Today-Tuesday-Out early before it gets hot, about 82 F. at 10 this morning. Up about 1100' into the Lakes District...
