Drove out to San Francisco after work for a nice ride over the Golden Gate Bridge.
North tower:
My Sirrus Carbon Pro, hard to see but I like the silouette look.

Todays ride was city to Fox Creek mtb park about 80km.
Just before the foothills is the area I grew up first 20 years of my life (1970's early 80's). My street was right by the river torrens, it was like a wilderness area with endless single track BMX tracks swinging off ropes it in the river swimming sling shot wars with other kids from up the street under ground cubbys cliffs to climb and now it's ruined with nice park lands, that's progress I guess.
We use to find in the over growth old equipment from pioneering days, farm buildings like these two photos, at least they left something from the past.
You see other cyclists all day riding the Adelaide Hills.

My turn around point.
You see signs like this a lot here where there was a Tour Down Under stage held. Just interesting info while riding.
This is a few meters up the road looking down early this year.
Gorge Road is just one of those roads that kill people mainly motorcyclists. Small monuments litter the road. This one was a week ago.
Rode up an abandond road to a look out. The trees block the view now.
That's all carry on folks.

My hybrid took me out on our daily ride to Veterans Park, with my little new rider.
And to the local Elementary schools playgrounds

There's a long driveway from bottom right of picture that goes to left of pic (behind trees) and around the rear. I thought this place would still be small compared to Richie Rich places in the US, I know your in Qld now.

Today, we went on the Bay Trail by Facebook's backyard, in East Menlo Park, CA.
The miners cart, I think it may have been used in the old Salt Pond, that was active from 1850 through 1940.
Question for public: its a shame that these photos are uploaded as thumbnails, with 105kb size. Is there any way I can have them uploaded as regular jpg photos? Their quality is much richer. Thanks!

They appears as thumbnails in the post but open up to full images and slide show when you click on one. I prefer posts that way as it takes up much less screen size when scrolling through, one can easily scroll past ones of low interest.

Thick fog all day at home, calling for ride to at least 1000ft for the chance of some autumn sunshine. Well worth the effort.

It was a nice day to test ride a bike in Boston. I parked a few miles from the city,
and rode the 'ole Raleigh to the Giant store. What a challenge to make it there
with all of the crazy Mass drivers. Anyways...
