Mission Cycling is devoted to the enjoyment of one of the world's purest, most classic sporting endeavors: Cycling. Our aim is simple: to enjoy the unique challenges and rewards offered by experiencing our unique countryside from the saddle of a bike. Each week our miles cover bridges, mountains, farms and beaches - all in search of cycling perfection. All are welcome.
Check it out - The Guardsmen Tour is a 100 or 25 mile bike ride from SF up through Marin and back. The Guardsmen is a charity that benefits at risk youth by providing scholarships and other opportunities they wouldn’t otherwise have.
Our shop, Bespoke, will be supporting the ride with a booth and riding. It's a great cause and the ride sounds like a good one. Reverse Marshall Wall! Gnarly. It's October 16. Get a group together and sign up. It's for the kids.

Ride Description
Another 6am calltime to get down to work in Cupertino by 9am-ish. But this time not solo... Mission Cycling Remix (f. The Professor, J-Hunt & Nils "The Swede")!
We left the Panhandle Statue in the mist, which turned into full-on rain as we headed into Golden Gate Park. Great prep for cyclocross season!
Things got drier as we headed south to the typical beautiful scenery of the Sawyer Camp Trail and Crystal Springs Reservoir. The Professor got a flat just after we got off the trail, so we took a brief respite to refuel and take my one-and-only picture of the ride. Just past the Woodside market, The Professor took us on his alternate route to Sand Hill – none of that boring Whiskey Hill nonsense. After dropping off the Stanford guys, Nils and I hammered the remaining 10 miles to Cupertino. Good start to the day...
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Mission Cycling Presents
MC Cyclocross Clinic
Sunday, September 12 @ 10am - 1pm
Come and get schooled in the fine art of cyclocross by none other than Barb Howe [http://barbarahowe.com] of Team Ibis and the Danger Twins! Barb is the 2009 USA National Champion in the women's Master 30-34 division, two time National Team member and generally tears it up. Badass, right?
The clinic will be geared towards beginners & basic techniques, but even if you've done a season or two, you're sure to learn something new and bone up on your techniques.
Here's the scoop:
- $20 / person (pay on the day or in advance to Zach or Danno)
- Limited to 15 people, so don't sleep, sucka--email Zach Bass to reserve your spot ASAP
- We'll start with a brief discussion of 'cross basics (equipment, courses, USAC rules, race categories and such), followed by skills practice (mounts & dismounts, negotiating barriers and run-ups, race strategy, looking totally boss in Zone 5), and end with a practice race.
- BONUS! 'Cross recovery clinic afterwards (beers & sausages)
- Roll from Ritual @ 9:30am, or meet at the clinic @ 10am (location TBA - soon!)
- Questions? Drop a note to Zach or Danno.
