Who should come: Any rider (road / fixed) that wants to hang out, socialize and have fun. This ride will be all ages (with the exception of the after party). Where we’ll start: We'll ride out from the Bea Evenson Fountain in Balboa park at 7:30pm. From there we'll be doing 15 or so miles through your fine city at a casual (no drop) pace as we make our way over to the Live Wire Bar on El Cajon. We'll get a route posted soon. Please let us know if you have any suggestions. What we’ll be doing after: The Live Wire Bar on El Cajon is being kind enough to take us in for some post ride drinks. We'll post some more information on the after party as that becomes available. If there are any photographers that would like to donate their time by taking some pictures of the ride and after party, let us know. at 7:00 pm - Bike PoloBike Polo
