Golden Gating
What do you get when you mix a crisp, sunny day, a holiday from work, and a Presidio-girl with a bike and camera-happy tendencies? My first bike ride across the Golden Gate Bridge (one of which I hope will be a monthly tradition with friends or solo.)
Boats were sailing and Alcatraz was looking great as I rode from my apt up to the bridge (love that it is literally right there in my neighborhood!)...
Me and my trusty ol' bike getting ready to ride across!
I wasn't the only one with the idea to bike across the bridge on this lovely day. You can walk/run/bike or skip, just mind the traffic...
On the Bridge (there are 2 paths on either side of the road--one for bikes and one for pedestrians. For those not familiar, the Golden Gate links San Francisco to Sausilito. On my next ride, I want to get a group and go over the bridge to Sausilito city, have a picnic or something, and take the ferry back over to San Fran and bike back home.
Smooth sailing: a view from the iconic bridge..
Up close and personal: An inscription on the Golden Gate Bridge...
I love the one-of-a-kind color of the bridge's arches...
What a lovely day for a ride across the Bay :) Hope to do this again very soon!

WOW! What a perfect day!! Please send an Evite for the next one!! Soni
That looks like so much fun chica! I want to go! (Though I don't own a bike, nor do I live in San Fran!) But if I make it up there maybe we can figure something out. Great pics! The water looks beautiful and the view from Alcatraz is very cool!
