Way back when...April and I would get up before the sunrise on a Saturday or Sunday and beat feet for a destination to trail run or mountain bike.

Getting around the Bay Area of California is best accomplished before too many neophyte drivers get on the road.  Therefore, we are giving it a go starting...TODAY!

By adding my stud of a son, we have now added to our enjoyment by 33.333%

Our 10 miles were mostly packed gravel and some quick sweeping downhills to be followed by fast shifting to lower gears and staying on the pedals.

A bit over an hour and we were back to a filling parking lot.

Getting home and pounding a completely tasty and decadent chocolate chip pancake and bacon breakfast has me now looking at my hammock for you know...

Missed this feeling for a while without knowing I did.  Happy to kick start a weekend tradition again...(maybe?)
