Surj (the man at City Bike) and BARF are throwing a celebration for the passage of AB 51 in San Francisco on October 8th, at DNA Lounge, from 1-4 PM.

We’d love for you to come out and celebrate a victory dance with us!!

This is a 100% free event—a chance for us all get together and raise our voices (and a glass, if you like) in celebration. We’re inviting everyone: moto-commuters, touring riders, MC crews, sportbikers, racers, dirt bikers—everyone on two wheels is welcome! I will speak a bit about the journey to this win, Nick Haris from the AMA will say a few words, and so will Assemblymember Quirk, Surj and a few others potentially.

We’ve asked ABATE, MMA, CHP, OTS and the MC's to join us too, and hopefully they’ll come out share something that so many moto groups came together to work towards. One of the best ever efforts by the two wheeled brotherhood I have seen.

Surj has a book face page put together for this.
The Facebook page for the event is here, with more details: https://www.facebook.com/events/918874851569080

for the non book face folks you can catch updates here of course.

We are very grateful to the DNA Lounge (run by Barry from SFMC) for helping us host. The DNA Lounge is located at 375 11th St, San Francisco, California 94103. Food and drink will be available. We expect all you grown ups to watch yourselves if you consume any alcohol of course. ;)

We have some sponsors helping us put this together and I will add that list here in a bit. There will be an event special bumper sticker being provided and there will be some giveaways thanks to the sponsors support. There is no cost to enter the raffle. When you walk in you will get a ticket and your shot at some cool stuff.

Surj and I were stoked when the Bill passed and we are stoked to have you come out a share that with us.

Raffle / Sponsor update.

Aerostich: $250 gift certificate and an Aerostich messenger bag
2 Wheel Safety Training: gift certificate for an Advanced Rider Clinic
Nexx: Helmet (TBD which one)
RKA Luggage: one piece of luggage, winner’s choice
Monkey Moto School is throwing down a $180 training session.
REACH Air Medical Services is providing a moto-first aid kit.
And...
ABUS locks will send some of their bitchin’ locks!!
D-Store SF is contributing His and hers bandana's to some cool couple.... Or you can take it home and it could be for forgiveness for being late.:kiss
Moto Guild is providing 2 - $100 gift certificates
And thanks to SF Moto for providing the event banner!!
And to Cycle Gear, the AMA, and Choulos, Choulos and Wyle for helping us make it happen as well.

Huge update on parking: Thanks to Cycle Gear's generous donation and weeks of hassling SF MTA, we have some parking blocked off on both sides of 11th street for our celebration, from Harrison to about halfway up 11th. There are also a few motorcycle spots around the area, including right in front of Cycle Gear around the corner. Please don't park in the bus stop zone or driveways, so we don't get in trouble! Motorcycles only, obviously!

For those caging in there is a pay garage at 255 12th street.

exploring!
RAD! This place is right around the corner from SF's Cycle Gear. So there's tons and tons of moto parking nearby and this place has delicious pizza.

I am looking forward to the party! :banana

I hope to see many friends at this event. A damn good reason to get together.

Was going to ask about that actually, normally I BART into the city because of the parking.

Will set this on the calendar.
 
That is (normally) a work day for me.
I will take it off, no pay, to be a part of this celebration!

Will also most likely split lanes to get there too! :thumbup :applause

Surj, in a small way to thank you for your efforts I'll also be paying for (at least) a years subscription to City Bike while there.
A contribution to barf/Budman will also be forthcoming.
I know that's NOT the purpose/plan/program.
Just my way of saying thanks!

I encourage others to consider likewise.
