Pre-registration

PLEASE PRE-REGISTER

Meet at the Golden Gate Panhandle Restrooms, just west of Ashbury St along the panhandle mult-iuser path. Here is the route we like from Civic Ctr BART to the ride start: Exit BART using the UN-Plaza escalator to the start of this route < https://ridewithgps.com/routes/16292705 >

The San Francisco Parks department has turned JFK through Golden Gate Park into the JFK Promenade, featuring art work, gathering places and various activities. It is car free to Transverse Drive. The Great Highway from Lincoln to Sloat is now the Sunset Dunes Park, with art works, various play structures, hammocks, and even a piano with its own garage. We like to ride through these areas, and watch people having fun. From there our route nicks a corner of Lake Merced (restroom) and then east on residential streets, including Saint Francis Woods. From there we ride a short distance on Portola to the wind assisted ascent of Twin Peaks, a significant natural area in San Francisco. The east side of the Twin Peaks Figure 8 and the top half of Twin Peaks Blvd have retained their car free status since the great Covid Closures.

The route is here:< https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51044314 >

Bring Snacks

The weather forecast is standard for SF: Hi of 65 and windy at the meeting place. Cooler at the beach. and then warming up as we head east to Twin Peaks. Dress in layers--warm enough to have fun on this ride.

This is a Release. When you agree to it, you forever give up certain rights to sue the persons and entities referred to in this Release. READ IT CAREFULLY.

"Grizzly Peak Cyclists", "GPC" and "the club" refer to Grizzly Peak Cyclists, Inc., a California Nonprofit Mutual Benefit Corporation, or its successor organization in the event that it should reorganize, merge, or change its name.

In return for being allowed to participate in any activity by Grizzly Peak Cyclists, Inc.:

  1. I acknowledge that I and other participants may be engaging in activities that involve risk of serious injury to me, including viral and bacterial infections, other communicable illnesses, permanent disability, and death. I understand that these risks may be increased through my own actions, or through the negligent action or inaction of Grizzly Peak Cyclists members or representatives. I therefore assume all risks of injury or loss, even if caused in whole or in part by the negligence of Grizzly Peak Cyclists, its members, or other representatives.
  2. I release from liability Grizzly Peak Cyclists, their officers, members, sponsors, and employees; and owners and lessors of facilities used by Grizzly Peak Cyclists, for any injury or damage that I may incur as a result of their activities, even if caused in whole or in part by their negligence.
  3. California Civil Code section 1542 states: 'A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.' I specifically waive the terms of that section, and agree to release claims that I may not yet know of, or which may be based on events that have not yet occurred.
  4. If I am allowing children under the age of 18 to participate in any activity, I agree on their behalf to the terms of this Release. I agree that if, notwithstanding this Release, I, the minor, or anyone on the minor's behalf makes a claim against any of the persons or entities Released, I will indemnify those persons and entities and hold them harmless against all expenses, damage or costs, including attorneys fees, arising out of that claim.
