the weather was gorgeous today. it rained for four days straight but when i woke up today it was beautiful and sunny, so i decided to take a bike ride along ocean beach. best idea i've had all week. i was getting so stir crazy from the weather. sure, i went to berkeley last night but it was dark out. today i got my first dose of vitamin d from the sun in a while, and it felt sooo good.
i stopped about here to turn around because the road was getting sandy, i was riding toward the highway, and i thought there was no more bike path. turns out there was a path about 1/4 mile up the road, i'll have to do that next time. i looked across the road and realized where i was and contemplated getting mauled by a tiger, but decided against it for today.
anyhoo... it was an awesome 7.5 mi bike ride with spectacular views. i felt so lucky to be able to do that, i'm so happy to be here. i probably looked a little silly on my bike with a huge grin, talking to myself about how gorgeous the views were. yay san francisco.
i did kind of forget that getting back home was uphill for quite a stretch, which left my legs a little rubbery for a few minutes. i hope to get more and more used to the hills on my bike, as i get used to using those muscles and they get stronger.

At least you didn't have to ride your bike uphill both ways, through the snow... ;)
