snap out of it!

So it's a beautiful day. Sunny, warmish, a good bike day. Plus, there's all kinds of bike possibilities for today. A ride to the Baylands, or a ride through Saratoga Gap. There's bmx tonight, or track racing at the Velodrome, and yet, I'm still bummed about not being in Tahoe. I just need to get over it. Life can't always be about happy trails through the mountains. And besides, it's not like I live in Ohio. There are cool places to ride here, most of them illegal but whatever... Tahoe has such a happy bike vibe though. It's like the park rangers and the people there actually want you to ride their trails. I didn't see a single crossed out bike sign while I was there. Tahoe is happy to see you out on the trails, going over the rocks, and through the forests. It feels like the Bay Area just gives you the big ol' stink eye for daring to go outside on two wheels.



But this is where I live, so this is where I ride. I'll just have to snap out of it. A few last pictures of Tahoe, then we'll move on!
