Hey all,
I just got back to the bay area and looking to kite.
Since the world is suppose to end tomorrow, where would be best place to kite Friday?
I will bring the post kite beer.

Alameda. It's gonna be rainy and gusty but windy and safe compare to OB. Then of course the secret spots I'm not allowed to talk about. You know... First rule of fight club and all. :roll:

Anybody going to Alameda? I'm all set to go, but the 40+ gusts on the forecast make me nervous.

Ugh, was all packed in the car and ready to go, then got scared off by a high wind advisory on NPR. I'll peek at the webcam to see if anyone else is braver.

Too bad you didn't go, looks like it was (and still is) pretty good.
