Bike Overnight at San Elijo Beach at Cardiff by the Sea.

We got together with a bunch of friends for a bike over night at San Elijo State Beach and campground. 

CicLAvia and Open Streets

People ask me why I visit cicLAvia and other Open Street events in SoCal. My response is it creates a sense of car-free utopia, it is less expensive than traveling to Copenhagen or Amsterdam, to see and meet friends, to explore dowtown without horrific gridlock and car fumes, and last but not he least to checkout #pupsonbikes and cargo bikes. 

Exploring UCSD

One of the reasons I bought a Folding bike is to be able to park my van a short distance to work. Then ride the rest of  way. Whem work takes me to UCLA, UCSD, or UCI, I take the opportunity to explore the campus on a bike or on foot.

San Diego Bike The Bay 2016

We had a great time volunteering as course monitors stationed at one of the intersections along the Silver Strand. We brought refreshments and music and good cheers to more than 3500 participants. Bella helped me share the cargo bike love.

The Lazy Bike

It looks like a lawn chair on wheels. This fella already rode his mini-fat trike 25 miles along the Santa Ana River to Seal Beach and back to Whittier Narrows and he looked like he is just lounging. 

Hauling lumber with a Bikes At Work Trailer

We are building a chicken coop. We bought plans from the GardenCoop.com site. Below is how I hauled the listed lumber. I always wanted to haul lumber via cargobike and heavy duty trailer. It is a challenge and a fun workout. Once I arrive home, The whole cargo rig goes in the back yard (no unloading) the lumber stays on the trailer until needed.

Pups On Bikes

I was glad that all three pups fit snuggly in the Brompton basket. I forgot to bring another basket to strap on the #standupforbrompton deckpad.

Brompton World Championship US edition

I have been planning my first trip to Sea Otter Classic for a year. It became extra special when Brompton USA announced that the US edition of the BWC will be held at the Sea Otter Classic in 2016. Myfriend  who participated at the Richmond,Va Road Racing World Championship last year was also thrilled about the news.
