Blazing Saddles Across the Bay

Today we enjoyed a bicycle tour across the Golden Gate Bridge with the Blazing Saddles Tour Company. It took 3 hours and took in many great sights and vistas. Typically the bridge itself was in fog but it was still very spectacular to cycle across.

Kate and I are having to adapt to much cooler temperatures here but we hopefully won't have to adapt for long as we push on down the Pacific Coast Highway tomorrow afternoon.

Our tour finished in Sausalito so we enjoyed a few hours mooching around the shops and pedalling further into the town to visit the infamous house boats.

On our return via ferry we met a family from Wilmslow (not far from where I grew up). I have stopped being amazed by how small this world is!

Once the bikes had been returned we enjoyed a further mooch around Fisherman's Wharf and then very slowly climbed the hill back to the hostel.

Aching all over from all the cycling, I hope I will sleep well tonight!Leggi altro
