The weatherman says our
beautiful summer-weather-in-January is ending and normal SoCal winter weather
is to resume tomorrow. It seems I should
sneak my bike out for a late afternoon ride.
So glad I did.
Wine country was
incredible.
Observing how bright rays
of sun gleamed down, lighting up the vineyards… turning distant mountains
deeper shades of green…
Inhaling the mixed
fragrance of sweet fruit trees in bloom and the woodsy scent of fires burning…
15/365: Coastal
Conquest
I was told that the most
beautiful region of the California coast stretches from San Francisco to Santa
Monica…
Not sure if it’s true, but
it gave me an idea…
Bike it! As in, with an actual bicycle… ;)
And thus, the idea was
transferred to the bucket list.
This summer, Lord-willing,
it’s getting crossed off.
Tonight, Matt and I met up
with another crazy couple who are also gearing up for this ride. By that I mean: Chuck and I will be riding our
bikes… our spouses are both opting to take in the beauty of the golden coast
atop wheels they don’t have to pedal.
We had an absolutely
wonderful time, with Chuck and Barbie, planning out this summer’s coastal
conquest route. It was fun to get to
know them. They’ve shared a lifetime of
adventure; Matt and I sat intrigued, listening to just a few of their crazy,
fun memories together… I’m sure we didn’t even scratch the surface…
At 66 (years old), Chuck
and ready to conquer the coast with me, need I say more? What a pair he and I will make out there on
PCH…
He
says we should name our ride “beauty and the beast…” ;)
