Extra Credit: Shore Leave

9/5/2012

2 Comments

 
Fun riding today with Jerry and Rick on an ad-hoc Extra Credit Ride today.  We got out early enough to miss most of the heat and spent a lot of  time on the cool coast.
 
In the You Never Know category: we encountered a lady driving a Mustang on the 56 Bike Path and could only wonder what the heck she was doing there. The car drivers who had to avoid her jumping back into traffic were probably equally flummoxed. Sure wish I had the presence of mind to get a picture of that!
 
A flat tire in Solana Beach led to the discovery of an ornate bronze water fountain that is set up for three levels of thirst. We can always use another watering option. Look for it going north on 101 at the foot of the pedestrian bridge at Dahlia Drive.
 
Kudos to Rick on knocking off new Strava PRs and thanks to Jerry for the lead-outs to snag a few for myself.
 
Cheers,
Steve

I'm dieing to know, on which part of the bike path did you encounter the driver? and was she coming at you, or did you come up on her from behind ?

She exited from the construction area, going east onto Ted Williams Pkwy. Passed a cyclist, cut over the crosswalk, made it ahead of the turning traffic, and took off.
