A couples journey on 2 wheels

Monthly Archives: October 2017

Since my bike is having tantrums I am having to take side trips to sort it out. This time the steering was acting up and I needed a new bearing to fix that little issue. Lucky for me, I have a contact in Rancho Cordova near Sacramento, about 200 kms […]

Day 5 for me was a rest day: after a few decent hiking and riding days I figured my body deserved it. I rode out with Tanguy for abit on his way to Sacramento in search of a decent supermarket (which I didn’t find), then went back to camp, got […]

Day 3 had us riding back to the valley to try some more hikes, and soaking up the beautiful valley. I went alone to hike to lower Yosemite falls, T balked at the idea of more stairs, so rode around the valley exploring and taking pictures. My hike was steep […]

Our first morning in Yosemite had us get going to (eagerly) see the famous Yosemite Valley, the main hub of attractions and facilities within the park, as well as home of the world famous El Captian and Half Dome. On the way there I had to stop my bike to […]

Time to move on even though it’s so nice out here we could spent a bit more time in this lovely house! We had breakfast with Brent and packed up. We didn’t make it out of the house before 11 so that was quite a late start with a long […]

It rained during the night, surprising considering how dry and rocky our environment was. We emerged from our cozy little room amongst the trees, and had breakfast in Brent’s stylish kitchen. We saw him off to work then headed off on our bikes up the twisty road to the highway, […]

I(TA) got up at 0600 to head to the bridge in the hope catch the sunrise with some nice light… it was still dark out and drizzling slightly, low level clouds, normal SF weather from what I gather. Traffic was light and 20′ later I was on the bridge. I […]

Today is tourist day, the bikes are staying safely tucked away in the hotel parking and we set off on foot to find breakfast. We found an Italian place that did a good job at feed us and went on to find, probably one of the touristiest (that’s definitely not […]

It was a relatively warm morning waking up in the dunes, so we crawled out of bed early, took advantage of the free showers and set off on our coastal ride to the big city. The ride down CA-1, just as the previous days, didn’t disappoint! The smoke at had […]

We awoke to sunshine, had breakfast, showers then wandered down to the beach next to which we camped. Beautiful day. After pack up our first stop was at Glass Beach, which I had heard of before. Turns out it wasn’t really a beach but a series of very small beaches […]
