Beach Babes

26 mile solo bike ride.  Up County View, along the Miwok Trail, across Coyote Ridge, sat on the point for a while between Muir Beach and Pirates Cove before heading down slope to Muir Beach.  Foggy, cold, June ride; soaking wet and shivering from the fog, sweaty and panting from the elevation climb.  Then rode up Shoreline past the Buddhist camp and the turnoff to Muir Woods, sped down the eastern side of Mt. Tam into the valley to catch the Mill Valley-Sausalito trail to the end of the piers past downtown Sausalito.  Then all the way back to Tennessee Valley.

But the highlight:  An all-girl surveying squad traipsing Muir Beach with maps, compasses, and tape measures, preparing the beach for the upcoming restoration project.  I sat there on the beach with my bike and just watched for a while.  So hot.
