I've taken a 6 month career break to help me decide what I want to do when I grow up! This BLOG will record my adventures and chart my progress as I cycle the western pacific coast of the US for Room to Read. Find out what I've been up to and how I'm getting on...

Day 29 Report - San Francisco to Half Moon Bay pt1

Total miles 38.4
Average speed 11.2
Total ascent 683m

Note - days 26, 27 and 28 were rest days.

I had a bit of a slow start today. Why? the bike was not exactly the most inviting thing today. My body was just getting used to not pedalling and here we go again! I needed to take the BART back to embarcadero (where i left off on sat) and they dont allow bikes on during rush hour. But thats no excuse as that finishes at 8:50. Anyway, i did eventually get started at 10:44 and just as well i had a short day planned.

Some lovely views of the GGB lifted my spirits for a while, but apart from the occasional flweeting glimpse of the coast these were urban, busy roads. So very few pic s were taken.

There was some wee climbs to get my muscles back interested and i wasnt too chuffed by the insistent headwind...

...until i took the suggested coastal bike path coming into Half Moon Bay. It has a wonderful half moon shaped beach! The busy road wasnt all that dicey but ...tbc
