San Diego

We just returned from San Diego. While we did a lot of cool things—like going to the zoo, a couple Giants games, the beach, great restaurants, breweries—let's focus on the important stuff. This is, after all, primarily a cycling blog.

Our hotel unexpectedly provided free bikes, so we went for an unplanned ride.

We grabbed three bikes and took the ferry over to Coronado Island to do a little tour.


There is a long recreation trail (Bayshore Trail) that runs along the water that you can actually take all the way back to San Diego. However, that was about 25 miles and I'm not sure how feasible that was. Spencer and I were on greatly overgeared single speeds and it would have been tough even for me. Jenn at least had a 3-speed, but these simply weren't the bikes for cranking out long miles.

We rode the trail for a bit before heading inland to explore the neighborhoods.


At the end we stopped at Coronado Brewing. Because beer.

A good day in San Diego made great. Because bikes.

Later.
