The Road to Halfmoon Bay

We rode down the coast through Pacifica and on to Halfmoon Bay. There was no shortage of waves and surfers riding said waves. After Pacifica we got to avoid a tunnel by biking on the old highway - old as in 2013 - enjoying views and whale watching along the way. Out of Halfmoon Bay we jumped on highway 92 to climb up and over the coastal mountains back to Emerald City on the bay side, since Karl's friend Ellen and her family had invited us to come visit them. As we had been warned, 92 was gridlock hell, which resulted in a fun ride for us, passing hundreds of cars as we climbed away from the coast. A sweaty 500 m later we reach the top and dropped down to Redwood City, having successfully made it 'the long way' in time (ish) for a delicous dinner cooked by Ellen.Læs mere
