San Fransisco, CA 2007




















So here I am looking out from one of the tallest buildings in SF. What a trip! I will have to do several posts to the blog to get to all the cool stuff we did. I went over this past Friday with my mother-in-law (Barbara) to visit Alex (her youngest son) and Kate (Alex's wife). We were busy pretty much the whole time we were there doing all kinds of different things....mainly eating and drinking wine!

















Here I am in Marin. Alex and I rode over the Golden Gate Bridge from their apartment and we caught some great views. I did miss my own personal road bike on this ride.... I am watching some surfers here. I think this was my first real experience of watching surfers. Pretty cool...pretty awesome location.

Here is some of the mountain bike/hiking trail we rode up to get to one of the highest points of the Marin Grasslands. It was pretty dang spectacular. Alex took some sweet shots, so when he sends them to me, I will load them up here.
Here we are (Alex and me) at the top of the first climb we did. The second half of this ride was a blast coming down the single track overlooking the water (kind of behind us, but on another side). It was soooo much fun and amazing. The views are incredible. This would have been been a perfect single speed trail to ride, but I didn't complain. I at least had a really nice mtn.bike to ride (Intense Spider)...Thanks Kate and Alex!!!!
