BROMPTOBERFEST East Bay: El Cerrito to Temescal Brewing

Join us for the inaugural **BROMPTOBERFEST** — *ja!* 🍺🥨 Dust off your lederhosen, dirndls, or just your favorite Brompton (traditional attire enthusiastically encouraged, never required). We'll kick off this new East Bay tradition with a proper German-inspired adventure. Starting at **El Cerrito Plaza BART**, we'll roll south — no *schnell* required — to pick up some delicious **Squabisch Pretzels** to fuel the remaining miles. From there we'll cruise the sights (and yes, occasionally the smells) of the Bay Trail along the waterfront, stop for a few *wunderbar* photo opportunities, and continue to the Emeryville Marina before turning inland. Our journey concludes at **Temescal Brewing**, whose very Brompton-friendly courtyard will be pouring Oktoberfest Festbier with UTMOST PRECISION alongside plenty of other beverages and food options. Whether you're celebrating with a Festbier, a sparkling water, or something in between, we'll raise a cheerful **"Prost!"** to good company, folding bikes, and the beginning of what we hope becomes an annual tradition. The ride will be **gemütlich**--**Keiner bleibt zurück** (**comfortably social--no-drop**), and suitable for riders of all experience levels. So grab a pretzel, ring your Brompton bell, and join us for a delightfully un-serious ride with just enough German flair to make everyone smile. *Allez! Auf geht's!* **View the route at this link**: [https://ridewithgps.com/routes/56552512](https://ridewithgps.com/routes/56552512) **Route description**: The route is 12.5 miles and mostly flat.

Marin Headlands - Rodeo Beach Hike - Sunday 9-27-26

Grand View and Strawberry

**A reminder that there will not be any more roams in September as I will be busy with zen ceremonies and activities.** I have had this route in mind for a while. If you are looking south from the Richmond, just west of Park Presidio, there are only really two hills you see: one is Strawberry Hill in the park, the other Grand View at the northern end of Golden Gate Heights. We will tackle both hills (roughly numbers 10 and 20 in the list of San Francisco summits) on our way round; admire the tiled staircases; enjoy Blue Heron lake and the park; and explore a couple of alleys in the neighbourhood - which are very rare in the Sunset. Naturally there will be some climbing on this roam! *Bringing water, snacks, and layers for all the microclimates is the way to go.* *These roams are offered by donation. They are one way I am able to pay my rent in San Francisco.* *Punctuality is always appreciated, for the sake of everybody's time. Please send a message on the app before the start if you are running late, and we will either wait (up to ten minutes) of I will direct you on how to catch up. Once we get underway I have to focus on those who are there, and most likely won't respond.* *Generally half the people who sign up don't actually show up on the day. I do track flakiness and remove people who have a poor attendance record. It is discourteous to those on the waitlist who would like to attend.* *Sending me a message explaining that you can't make it is always appreciated.*

Paddleboarding/Kayaking in San Rafael.

Roaming Lake Merced and the Dunes

This is a route we did about eighteen months ago, and I wanted to try it again. We start off in the Lakeshore district, close to the zoo, pass across Lake Merced, and tackle the dunes between Fort Funston and Great Highway. This roam is pretty flat, but we will have a fair amount of sand and dirt to traverse. *Bringing water, snacks, and layers for all the microclimates is the way to go.* *These roams are offered by donation. They are one way I am able to pay my rent in San Francisco.* *Punctuality is always appreciated, for the sake of everybody's time.
