Peripatetic Persistent Pirate Puffins' Pacific Peregrination: SF to Tokyo (1708 hours)

aniola — Thu, 15 Oct 2020 08:42:01 -0800

Formerly the Remote Non-synchronous Relay Walk. You say it takes 1708 hours of peregrination* to get from SF to Tokyo. We're 200+ hours along! The more you (dear reader) log your hours, the sooner we'll have gone the distance. Join any time. Track our progress. Wondering what's out there with us? lemonade made an app for that. Now! With Official Puffin Mascot S.F. Tokyo, Pirate (they/them)! *Inclusive definition of peregrination.

So I threw together a Google Form to track the hours. I will also add hours for anyone who doesn't want anything to do with Google (I'm not quite there yet). Log your hours here (short link) or here (long link). Track our progress here - Note the "Are we there yet?" link at the bottom (I haven't figured out how to direct link to it.) NOTE: I am handing edit power out like candy. If you want to update the "are we there yet?" tab with clever notes about what's in our path along the way, get in touch!

bike tour to Portland

aniola — Sun, 24 Jun 2018 12:42:43 -0800

Me & sibilatorix are leaving Santa Rosa today (June 24) on a recumbent tandem bicycle headed for Portland. Keep an eye out for us, and if you're on a Pacific Coast bike tour, we should totally meet up and/or ride together! Recumbent tandem. Hard to miss. We'll be state park hopping, staying at the hike & bike sites. PS if you're in a car, please drive slow and give us piles of room <3 PPS if you see us in one of the state parks, you can totally try it out. you don't need to know how to ride a recumbent to ride on the back of a recumbent tandem! PPPS we have ice cream cone s'mores right now.... Estimated arrival in Portland is some time in week 2 of July.

PEDALPALOOZA: Portsmouth Parkways

aniola — Wed, 25 May 2016 16:41:20 -0800

Portsmouth neighborhood has ALL THE PARKS. They're a resource, a treasure, socialism at its finest, and we will explore them. Flat, slow pace, no drop ride. There might be snacks. Pedalpalooza is the month-long event where everyone does fun group bike rides. It's HUGE! My favorite last year was the tour de goats where we visited all the houses with goats. Anyway, I'm hosting one this year and I hope y'all will plan on joining me.
