But even a short getaway requires some planning skill and commitment. I am grateful to bike camping advocate Brett for rounding up a group of us for a trip that starts tomorrow morning, February 4th, 2012.</p> <p>I am sure that there are many cyclists who also love football. This is not the case in my social circle. I would rather ride with friends than watch TV with friends. This superbowl weekend trip will find us back on the Central Coast of California, climbing more than 2000 feet and then dropping down the roller coaster road to the Pacific Ocean and the Big Sur coastline. Big waves are pounding the shore and our tents will be enveloped in sea mist and campfire smoke.</p> <p>NFL football fans, we raise our water bottles to you and appreciate the empty highways you’ve left us to occupy on a beautiful, California weekend. </p>http://www.s24o.com/post/16983114605http://www.s24o.com/post/16983114605Fri, 03 Feb 2012 13:37:22 -0500s24obig sur<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx1mp4T5Jn1qa3is4o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Going home the easy way. This is the end of my s48o — one I won’t soon forget. I always wanted to ride from my Santa Barbara home to my childhood home. It was even better than I imagined to ride my by high school, jr. high, and then the quiet streets of one of Southern California’s most peaceful suburbs. My parents and family were kind to put up with all of this and my dear Mom even washed all my bike gear while I visited my sister in Newport Beach.</p> <p>My key regret is that I didn’t order the pacific coast map from Adventure Bicycling and that I allowed myself to ride some very dangerous, urban terrain. I am lucky that I survived (I am pricing some higher levels of life insurance for 2012!)</p> <p>Until the next adventure!</p>http://www.s24o.com/post/15054569554http://www.s24o.com/post/15054569554Fri, 30 Dec 2011 19:58:00 -0500touringbike rack<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lww9wu4KwG1qa3is4o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Safe and in Newport at Carolyn’s</p>http://www.s24o.com/post/14897882807http://www.s24o.com/post/14897882807Tue, 27 Dec 2011 22:34:05 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lwvw4ohpsc1qa3is4o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Ahghhhhhhhh!
