when on a bike
when on a bike...
…set small goals within the big goal.
it's been on my bucket list since we started calling the city home.
not just to bike across the bridge, but to bike across the bridge as a family.
here's how we bike...
rent bikes from the sports basement in the presidio. they have tandem bikes and bike carriers. i suggest calling ahead of time and they will hold them for you.
start early. make it a day.
know the weather. dress in layers or just suck it up and prepare to sweat or freeze.
in the city and over the bridge, you just never know.
pack some water and protein. other than the ocean to the left and the bay to the right,
not so much as a watering hole around.
remind yourself how you started the day -
set small goals within the big goal.
cheer those little legs on. yes, yours are little, but i'm thinking of their little legs!
up the hill. across the bridge. the rewarding downhill!
power up the hill {on foot}.
careful around the bends into sausalito. get ferry tickets.
park the bikes. enjoy ice cream at lappert's.
line up early for the ferry. limited number of bikes on board each
ride.
enjoy the bridge from afar.
never look at the bridge the same again.
i'm feeling inspired to bike more. where have your bikes taken you? in the city or somewhere else in the world?
