It’s been raining off-and-on in the city for over a week now. Lots of excuses to stay indoors, to stay in bed, to find any way to stay warm and dry.
So when the forecast promised a sunny Saturday, plans were set. Bicycles tuned up. Breakfast reservations were (mentally) made. And then at 9 o’clock on Saturday morning, it started raining again. But we went out anyways. A morning bike ride through the park, over the the bridge, and into the little town of Sausalito for late breakfast. No raining on this parade! It was my first ride over the Golden Gate Bridge–my feet were soaking wet in my shoes, but I had a big smile on my face the whole time.
Oh yes, and I signed up for a 500-mile bike ride over the weekend–San Francisco to Los Angeles for the AIDS/Lifecycle. Crazy? Maybe. Exciting? Definitely. More on this soon…
How are you fighting back against this January weather, wherever you are?

The only time I visted SF I biked across the Golden Gate Bridge. I was with my family and a friend and before we biked
across the bridge we ate breakfast at an amazing restaurant. Sadly, I don’t remember the name because I would
definitely recommend it. I ordered homemade waffles with a medley of fresh local berries, a touch of whipped cream and
powdered sugar, and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, so delicious!! This was 8 years ago, but whenever I eat a really
delicious meal I’ll remember it for life! I had so much fun on that trip; on the bike ride and exploring as much of SF as
I could in a few days . You’re lucky to live in such a great city!
