Friday 7/13 6:30am BART MEBW

[Nathan Dushman]

Weather looks great for the end of this week. Any interest in a Middle East-Bay Way? I'm flexible on departure times since I'm only going to Hayward (in fact, I'd love to catch the 7am ferry to Alameda Harbor Bay, and ride from there, but that's probably too late for most of you).

I'd also consider an East-Bay Skyline, although I'm thinking flat and short is more my style at the moment.

Friday? I'd be down.

Sorry, right, that should be Friday 7/15 (not 13).

[Alexandre Passos]

+1

I imagine 16th st bart, the 6:24 fremont train, which is 6:30 @ embarcadero, or do you mean something else? 

[Nathan Dushman]

6:30 at Embarcadero (that's a Fremont train) works for me. I didn't look at the BART schedule before posting.

+.5 pending getting bike back from the shop

 

Is this a San Leandro Bart rollout?  If so, roll at ~6:55-7:00 (based on 6:30 Embarcadero departure)?

Hoping to upgrade to a full +1

Up for a Skyline as well if anything changes, but MEBW just as appealing.

[Alexandre Passos]

Yes, I assumed a San Leandro rollout

Yup, the usual route from San Leandro. BART arrives there 6:54. I'll be boarding at Embarcadero, will look for the crowd on the rear or second-to-rear car.

For those not familiar with the Middle East-Bay Way route, it's mostly hard-packed dirt trails on the eastern edge of the bay, interrupted by one section of road, then over the Dumbarton bridge (which is the only climbing) where it meets the standard Bayway route at University near Facebook. You get great views of the bay, and are well away from car traffic for most of the route. It's about 2 hours from San Leandro to the western end of the Dumbarton. A cross bike is probably the best choice if you have one, but if not a road bike is fine (that's what I'll be riding).

I'm now working in Hayward so I'll turn off near the San Mateo bridge.

Ahh, so you're not going as far south as the Dumbarton?

In the event I get my bike back, which hopefully I will, I'll be at SL Bart.

Not sure if I'll wfh or go to Pleasanton, but either way, willprobably continue to Union City Bart.

Just a reminder that Nathan's Middle East Bayway ride is tomorrow, Friday 7/15, not 7/13.

[Viet-Trung Luu]

This is still on, right?

+1 (24th Mission @ 6:22, last car, I guess?), if someone (Alex?) who knows the way is going at least to the Dumbarton, because I don't actually know the way.

[Nathan Dushman]

It's still on, I'll be there. If for some reason Alex doesn't make it, I can give you directions to the Dumbarton, it's actually pretty easy after Hayward.

Nathan

[Viet-Trung Luu]

OK, good enough for me.
