Thursday, June 28, 2012 Encinitas to San Diego 22 miles We started out by having breakfast with Kay O. Like Sadie, Kay O had been on the Odyssey bike trip around the world in 2000 with Ben Willetts, which is how I met both of them in the first place. Kay O, who has completed […]
Wednesday, June 27, 2012 Capistrano Beach to Encinitas 40 miles Between 80 miles yesterday and such an interesting host, we finally left Sue’s treasure cave about two in the afternoon. We rode past the San Onofre nuclear power station (That’s it, behind the trees.) and through Camp Pendleton Marine Base. Our map and a quick […]

Tuesday, June 26, 2012 Santa Monica to Capistrano Beach 80 miles We spent two days off staying with Jess and Brent and their awesome Corgi puppy, Zelda, in Marina del Rey. We stayed in my good friend Chris’ room while she was still up at Sara’s in Ventura. We had two massages in two days […]
Saturday, June 23, 2012 Ventura to Santa Monica-ish 65 miles Another morning when we just could not get going. Until we hit the UPS store. We realized we wouldn’t need to camp anymore, since we had friends to stay with for the rest of the way to San Diego, so we mailed our camping gear […]
Friday, June 22, 2012 Santa Barbara to Ventura 46 miles We had a hard time leaving the house this morning. It was just too comfortable! We finally got three miles away, headed for second breakfast, when Sadie’s pedal fell off! The way that pedals are not supposed to come off. Luckily, we were 2.5 miles […]
Wednesday, June 13, 2012 Ano Nuevo to Sunset State Beach 46 miles Another slow start today, but less slow than the last two days! I had a hard time waking up because I didn’t sleep very well. At 3:15am, I had bolted awake, sure that a raccoon was skulking outside my tent, trying to figure […]
Tuesday, June 12, 2012 Half Moon Bay to Ano Nuevo 32 miles There was a lot of loud squawking around our campsite last night, and at least some of it turned out to be raccoons unzipping my trunk bag and stealing my delicious muesli bread that I didn’t even try yet. At least they were […]
Saturday, June 9, 2012 Rogers Park to Wicker Park, Chicago 8 miles I fly to San Francisco in the morning to meet Sadie and start riding down the coast to San Diego, but I started riding with my gear tonight. It’s really easy to get to O’Hare airport using public transportation in Chicago, but from […]
We set up the outdoor trapeze rig this month at Belmont Harbor. It was delayed a bit due to a permit issue, but opened to beautiful spring weather. On our first weekend out, two older women stopped by to see what was going on. Terry, in the green, was disappointed not to be able to […]
