The first of many exciting rides: a journey to the Marin Headlands.
Starting from the Eagles Nest (743 Woodhaven Road), I rode the bike down to Downtown Berkeley Bart station and took the train to Embarcadero. Start time 9:36am
Stripping down to spandex in a park across from the ferry building in SF. 11:00am
About to cross the Golden Gate. 12:00pm
Having crossed the Golden Gate, proud to have made it to the other side of 101 and under a long tunnel. One of the coolest parts of the day, being alone in the long tunnel.
About to climb now. Impressed with the friendliness of passing bikers. Several ask me if I am ok... do I look stranded? Does it appear as though I have a flat? 12:15pm
Victory at the summit. A difficult climb. 12:27pm
Facing the other directing. Point Bonita. Anticipating Descent.
Descent complete. View of a lagoon. 1:15pm
The beach
Silhouettes
Looping back, I end the day at the Palace of Arts. 2:30pm
Birds taking flight.
