Last Wednesday was the warmest butter lap ride I have done this year. The light, weather everything was great. As the days get a bit warmer the ride gets larger. I was quite please that I was able to get out of work early enough for the ride.
I didn’t start at the Ferry bldg. this time, but caught up at fort Mason and waited for the group. I saw some usual suspect peeps, met new fellow buttercuppers and I felt pretty comfortable riding the smurfette up sea cliff towards the legion. I believe that this is the first time I did not stop mid hill. Sweet. Sunset sighting was just amazing. We were able to catch the last leak of sun light at Ocean. Ended the night with some seitan and a cold anchor. No better way to end the hump day blues. ♥cheers!

Her Bottechia ride is pretty rad.

I met Devin this past butter lap. He sent me some very cool shots. I fell in love with the colors in the sky. Anyhow – below are the pics he took, with a fancy little gadget called the iphone. It does some cool stitching thing with photos. ♥These are great thanks for sharing these D!

Last week, I received two lovely notes from Old Dude and Maja. One within our state and the latter internationally. These two posts are dedicated to everyone in the world that finds inspiration some where, some place and finds ways to express that, and incorporate it in their life, and in their city. Bikes and your city. It is a global action, happening in your own local bike lane. I’m flattered to know you have been inspired by this little blog of mine. ♥Thanks!

♥Thanks so much for sending these in Maja! Bicycles and photographs connecting us all around the world!
