Our goal is to provide a friendly, social community in the Silicon Valley / South Bay Area for adults to meet and play “European-style” boardgames. Favorites include Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride, but there are many, many more games of this style from which to choose. We place as much importance on socializing as we do on playing games: although games are naturally competitive, this is a group specifically for people who want to play games in a comfortable, relaxing setting …

Welcome! We are San Jose Mountain Biking Our group’s purpose is simple.  We want to get people out riding whenever and wherever possible.  As the Organizer of SJ Mtb, I’m dedicated to helping people get out on the bike more often.  I don’t care if you ride every day of the week or just a few times a month.  I don’t care if you only ride with us or if you ride with lots of different groups.  Mountain Biking for me isn’t a popularity contest, it’s a way of life.  We’re not out to have the most me …

This is a newly forming group of cycling enthusiasts who enjoy riding and socializing in the wine country of California. We will enjoy rides of varied lengths on awesome backroads in various wine regions including Sonoma, Healdsburg, Napa, Livermore, and hopefully even the Central Coast region. Our rides will all be followed with a social picnic or tasting or both. Our rides will also be social in nature of pace, with the objective of enjoying the road and the destination more than the speed in …

This group is open only to current members who are "frequent riders" in Peninsula & South Bay Bicycling Group at www.meetup.com/biking, and who find themselves wanting harder, longer rides, as an "advanced" version of that Meetup group. If you have not ridden with that Meetup group, please apply to join www.meetup.com/biking first. If you have ridden in PSBBG for a while, are attending rides often, consider yourself a "frequent rider" BUT .. you find most the rides too easy / short .. then apply …

This meetup group is for female motorcycle riders who would like to have other females to ride with. Most of our meetups allow husbands, boyfriends, friends, or whoever along with the group unless a meetup states its for "women only". Our calender's activity depends on members to post a ride or event so please feel free to be active and post rides often!  Our biggest goal is to give support to one another and especially to new riders who want to gain experience but not be alone on the road. We w …

First off, a new organizer does not mean anything. Simply means a new credit card has been used to pay the fee. (Thanks to Bryan for being the founder.) The purpose of this group remains the same. It is an open forum for folks around the Bay Area to organize rides and come together in unity. The Bay Area Motorcycle Riders Meetup Group (BAMR) is a way for motorcycle enthusiasts to plan rides together. It was created in the spirit of bringing motorcyclists of all ages and abilities together to exp …

The purpose of Dangerous Curves is to foster a safe and supportive riding environment for women and their friends and families, while developing friendships with other people sharing a common interest in motorcycling, and to promote the knowledge about and appreciation of motorcycles. Our motto is R-E-S-P-E-C-T, which stands for: Ride safe and sane always. Follow laws, posted speed limits, and follow the lead of your Road Captain. We ask that riders have a current CA motorcycle license and ins …

I started this group to meet like minded folks in the South Bay with the hopes of having more group riding opportunities.  There are other rider groups that sponsor social events that may or may not have anything to do with riding. We will not do sponsored club rides, charity rides, poker runs, movie nights, bowling, karaoke, etc.  This group's primary focus is the ride, the event or destination associated with the ride is secondary.  Group riding itself creates the opportunity to socialize. A f …

This group is for intermediate to advanced cross-county riders to get together for some great rides and mountain biking trips. I want to keep the rides small, as I don't really enjoy going on rides with 40 people.   People joining this group should be established riders with a good fitness level and an average technical riding ability. People will not be dropped on rides, but I also don't want people to have to wait excessively long periods of time for beginners.  With all that said, the rides w …

This is a group of motorcyclists who wish to go on loosely organized short, medium and long explorations in small groups. Totally informal rides for a small number of riders to explore the biways and hiways.

This group is for motorcycle cruisers who like to ride the scenic Northern California back-roads. Although most of the existing members ride Harleys, but other (i.e. metric) cruiser or touring bikes are also welcome. The goal of the group is to organize smaller group rides for better safety and more manageable & enjoyable day rides. Spouses or pillions are always welcome. So please join us and let's ride.

This group is for people who love to build, ride, break then repair, tweak some settings and ride their scooters. I am also personally out to make what I call "The Police Magnet" "The God Scooter". Something so powerful, everyone on earth will want one from us. It's also for casual meetups, dinners, talking about design, testing in a friends garage one day then maybe going on a road trip the next. Scooteringging, is a safe, effective, cheap, and environmentally nice way to get from point A to Po …

We are a group of women riders looking for fellowship and friendship. We ride Harleys, but it really doesn't matter what you own. A typical ride for us is meeting for breakfast at one of the great local spots. From there we tend to prefer the windy, scenic trips that can take your breath away. We want women who are looking to meet up at least once a month or whenever the weather is nice enough to withstand a ride. A club is all about getting to know people who share common interests and can form …

I'm starting this group for SF-based riders who want to share rides to various trails (e.g. Tamarancho, China Camp, Annadel, Skeggs, Wilder Ranch, Henry Coe, etc.), mostly for weekend rides, but I would also like to do some group after-work weekday evening or night rides in the area. There are already several Bay Area mountain biking meetup groups (and I belong to most of them) but I thought it would be good idea to have a resource for SF-based riders to use to organize rides starting form SF or …

This is a group for women who just started riding motorcycles. My best friend and I just bought motorcycles and we are trying to get used to it. We love riding so far. But, we decided we wanted to start a Motorcycle group called Bay Area Lady Riders. Basically it would be a group of ladies ages 18-28 who will go on rides just for fun a couple times a week. Its basically like a social gathering but at the same time learning to ride together and becoming a family. We will start small going on litt …

This group is a fantastic way to experience the coastside. We are motorcycle riders that also incorporate hiking into our ride.  We will ride the windy, often single-lane, coastal roads from Half Moon Bay to Pescadero and will stop off at one of the many State or County parks for a 60-90 min hike. We will ride short stretches of Hwy 1 and avoid interstates. Roads include Higgins Canyon, Lobitos Creek, Tunitas Creek, Hwy 84, Stage and Pescadero roads. We will usually meet at the Half Moon Bay Cof …

I'd like to start a bike shop/cafe, along the lines of Mojo Bicycle Cafe in San Francisco. Maybe it's just a bike shop, but I'd like to consider the food/drink aspects of well. The important aspects of the business venture will be that it is: run as 'a real business' that makes money so it can pay its bills/salaries/expenses a worker-owned and run cooperative democratically-runa non-destructive retail/restaurant chain (as in the business concept, not the physical bike chain) active and engaged …
