Dumbarton Bridge and beyond.

It was a nice day yesterday, so I decided I would ride over the Dumbarton Bridge to Union City.  I had only been that way by car, so was not sure what it would be like on a bicycle.  The ride is actually easier than I expected and sure saw a lot of cyclists.  The next nice day I think I will try it again and go at least as far as where I lived in Fremont.  Nice change from the Bay Trail.  Today it is raining so I am doing laundry.  Something I should have done weeks ago.  I wish I could invent clothing that washed itself.  With my luck if I did it would wash itself when I was wearing it.

Rain and Showers

The weather report for today was 60% chance of rain, so I put on my rain coat and went for a ride of about 20 miles.  I did not encounter any rain but I sure found the mud.  I had to stop twice to pick the clumps of mud and branches from the gears and breaks.  The bike is still muddy, I will have to wash it tomorrow either with a hose or in the rain.  My black cycling tights where brown when I arrived home and it took to wash cycles to clean them. All and all a great day for a ride.

Hope everyone has a great holiday
