A nice early start today about 7:30am.
A pleasant ride towards San Francisco down the 101 through some great looking hills and valleys, although it got a bit busy and congested around Santa Rosa. Then I approached San Francisco with the intention of crossing the Golden Gate Bridge, Gertie and I got a little off-line but low and behold I rode across it - I could not see much as there was a thin layer of fog and some roadworks on the bridge. Oh did the temperature drop… chilly to say the least. I was so worried about riding through San Francisco that I even forgot to get breakfast!!!
We took a short cut through some heavy traffic in Daly City but found the 101 again later and then the city disappeared and the fields of vegetables appeared as I approached Soledad. I was a bit early so stopped at the local McD's for an early lunch and chatted with another chap on a bike.
