    I got up earlier this morning than I've managed in weeks and got in a nice ride before work.  My commuter is in the shop until Sunday so I rode my Trek.  I love that bike and wonder why I'm not riding it more.  It isn't as fabulous or as fast as my Cannondale but it's such a great bike and I love riding it.  I've thought about commuting on it regularly but it's a little high end for that and it has road pedals that I don't want to swap out because I'd rather commute in road pedals than ride a century in mountain pedals.

     I headed off 17th to Eureka to 23rd to Diamond to Diamond Heights to Portola to Twin Peaks.  I got this pic looking west to the Farollons from near the top:

    I headed over to the viewing platform and got some pics:

    Everybody's favorite antenna:

    I continued on Twin Peaks into Clayton to Ashbury to Masonic to Haight to Broderick.  These fabulous Victorians are at Broderick and Fulton:

    I continued on Broderick to McAllister to Steiner to Post.  I stopped in Japantown for pic of Peace Plaza:

    I continued on Post to Kearny to Bush  to Sansome and into work.  I've got a lot going on today.  I'm taking my bike home at lunch and then meeting up with Nathan and Daniel after work.  I'm looking forward to it and it's gonna be lots of fun.
