Happy Birthday, TMac!!

We've been slugs, so I thought I'd post something, anything.

This is the view from the Presidio Yacht Club. Yes, it's the actual view. Note the sunglasses and gloves in the foreground. This place has tasty burgers, fine beers, and the most unbelievable view. And it's a dump.

I mean that in a good way. I love dives. It's like any bar in Nordeast except it has a really, really nice view--oh, and four burgers and fries with eight beers will set you back less than $75 sans tip.

The other nice thing about it is you can do this super cool ride to the Marin Headlands rolling across the Golden Gate Bridge, climbing Hawk Hill, zooming down to Rodeo Beach, and then screaming back through the tunnel to the bar. If the road isn't to your taste there is some tasty single-track about 3/4 of a mile up the hill after you have crossed the bridge

If you are visiting San Francisco you must ride to this bar. They have a web site. Look it up. Call ahead. When we rolled in they had opened early for a friend which turned out nice for us. We knew they opened at 4 pm and we rolled in at 3:20 in hopes they were open and they were. Picture taken December 18th, 2009.

Don't say I never did nothin' for ya.

One lap from the back

Someone shot the 3 race from under the saddle:

You never know who will show up at the MN State CX Championships...

Red, red wine on Sunday. Just like Martin said.

Well, the single-track isn't as single as Fruita. The slick-rock isn't as slick as Moab. I was forced to miss the state cyclo-cross weekend. Life really is hard.

Still, the riding in Sedona is pretty sweet and the scenery is unmatched. Photo shows Broken Arrow. Cairn in left foreground shows the beginning of the descent through the saddle leading back to town.

TT down

Between deer, bunnyhopping barricades, dodging Billy and slippery corners TT should maybe take up extreme knitting. Pic from skinnyski.
