Workstands are sooooo handy. Congrats! I use mine all the time. My "loot" is a nice pair of Ibex El Fitto riding knickers, which I have wanted for a long time. I use other knicker brands, but have long wanted these. I'll wear them today on my Christmas ride down to my son's home for the family dinner. Besides the great knickers, my wife also gave me strict orders to be at the family confab no later than 3:00 PM. As she made very clear to me, there will be no excuses for being late! So, that in mind, I'm leaving our home in San Francisco early, and I'll take a casual ride down to San Mateo. It's about a 30 mile ride.
I just returned from walking the dog. We live just a few blocks from the Golden Gate (Straits and Bridge) and our regular 3-mile loop takes along Baker Beach and back through the Presidio. I was surprised at the numbers of people out and about this morning. Peolple were already setting up at the picnic spots at Baker Beach, barbeques already fired, and even some brave young souls out in the chilly surf. It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky. Temps at my house are currently 54 (11:00 AM). I was planning to ride down the peninsula via Skyline and Crystal Springs Res/Sawyer Camp Trail, etc. But, given the great numbers of people I saw while walking the dog -- cyclists, families walking, tourists, joggers, more dog walkers,etc. -- I am thinking that Sawyer Camp will be packed (lots of kiddies with new bikes and scooters, and hot wheels, etc.) so I think I'll take the city loop around Embarcadero instead. That'll take me down along the bayshore, past SFO, and into San Mateo. I'm planning on taking a few pix that I'll post later, just as I am looking forward to the Christmas rides of others. I have even decided to dust off the Romulus for this ride. Haven't been on that old steed for weeks. Merry Christmas all!
