Heading up to the Headlands

Another lovely warm sunny day in the Bay Area and perfect conditions for a ride in the Marin Headlands.

A thrilling descent though I had to walk a bit of it given my fear of heights. I snapped photos with my eyes shut though I kept them open while riding. Of course walking down the steepest part afforded me opportunity to meet a number of male cyclists eager to lend a helping hand to a damsel in distress. The Boyfriend is shaking his head and sighing.



Down the rabbit hole into Sausalito

Quick stop at Starbucks.

He: What would you like?

Me: You.

He: Focus Missy Focus.

Me: I am focusing -- on you.

He: Sigh. Blog about the biking!

Me: Okay, the Headlands loop is 10 miles. Take the Alexander exit once past the Golden Gate Bridge, going North. Park in the lot. Get on bike. Go. Go some more. Arrive in Sausalito, the American Riviera. Try not to flirt.

He: Sigh.

Dam fine looking cyclist in Sausalito.

Sailboats on the Bay.

The Heat is On

To escape the heat, The Boyfriend and I went to the Marin Headlands and Sausalito for a bike ride. He was climbing that road when I took the shot. We enjoyed the fog from afar.

I couldn't resist taking a photo of the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco.

I panicked on the descent that leads to Point Bonita Lighthouse and had to walk some of it. Too steep for me. Of course this afforded me the opportunity to meet three male cyclists who asked if they could be of service. Hmmm.... The Boyfriend is probably rolling his eyes and shaking his head.

Too hot to continue this blog entry. Til next time....
