  • Sunday, December 9

    I almost didn't go biking because my boys looked so adorable:

    But it was a pretty morning so off I went.  I headed up Corbett to Clayton.  This building is at 17th and Clayton.  It's so fabulous.  It just looks incredible:

    I continued on Clayton to Parnassus to Cole to Beulah to Stanyon and into Golden Gate Park.  I rode throught the park on JFK down to the ocean and then took the Great Highway down to Sloat where I stopped to ogle the surfers. 

    This guy was hosing his junk out for an astonishingly long time.  Call me a chester, but if you're going hose out your business in public I'm going to take pictures and put them on my blog:

    I continued down the Great Highway and then got on Skyline and then took the 1 down into Pacifica.  This is Rockaway beach:

    I headed up towards Devil's Slide.  This is the new tunnel they're building to bypass the area prone to slides.  It's cool to watch it going in:

    This is the view North towards the Marin Headlands from Devil's Slide:

    And the view down.  Watch that last step!

    And one of me with the ocean behind me:

    This is the other side of that tunnel. 

    I continued down the 1 towards Half  Moon Bay.  These are some surfers heading out at Montara State Beach:

    This is the view of the bay:

    I went into Half Moon Bay and then continued south to Tunitas Creek Road.  There are pretty farms on the lower part of it.

    I then climbed all the way up to Skyline and then down King's Mountain into Woodside.  This is the view about halfway down King's Mountain:

    I rode through Woodside.  This pretty church is on Woodside Road:

    I continued on Woodside to Canada into Skyline to Sloat to Portola to Corbett and back home.  It was a beautiful day.
