• Tour of East Bay and Dim Sum

    I would hardly call this winter… no rain, a slight bit of “cold” in the mornings… nothing but sun and warmth in between.  Not complaining, and it made for a great opportunity for a great short tour of the east bay.  Starting here in the east by at 11am, Hannah and I biked to Oakland, had Dim Sum at Chinatown, then biked out to Lake Merritt, looked at some Bonzai Trees, then back up Broadway to Rockridge, then back home on the Ohlone Greenway.  All in All, a great 20 Mile ride.

    There were a few spots of hills, but most of the elevation changes were very gradual.  Pretty much stayed on one gear the entire way.
