There's an event going on tonight that might get you wheelie excited.
Streets of San Francisco Bike Tours (SoSF) moved into PROXY a few years ago, making Hayes Valley the epicenter of their guided bike tours. In the past few months, they've moved into a larger location across Linden Alley and have expanded by creating a sister company called CityRide Bike Rentals.
To celebrate their move, new company, and signing of a 7-year lease to remain here in the neighborhood, they're throwing a launch party tonight at their location (370 Linden).
If you stop by between 6pm-8pm, you can meet the owners Daniel Watson-Weller and Tim McLaughlin, as well as drink beer, listen to music, talk about bikes, and enter a raffle for giveaways.
Raffle prizes have been donated by some familiar names like Smitten Ice Cream, Fatted Calf, Juice Shop, Ritual Coffee, Timbuk2, Mission Chinese, Specialized, Biergarten, and more.
To join the party, register with this Eventbrite link. It appears they've sold out of the free tickets, but you can still purchase $5 ones that include BBQ, beer, and one raffle ticket. All ticket proceeds benefit the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition.
If you can't make tonight's event, CityRide is partnering with PUBLIC Bikes and Lululemon for a Bike & Brunch ride this Sunday. Register online, bring your own bike, gallivant around the Wiggle and Golden Gate Park, and then return to Hayes Valley for brunch at Dobbs Ferry. The entire event takes place between 9am-1pm.
