Bicycle Ride to Treasure Island

Decided to take a bicycle ride to Treasure Island. Been wanting to do it. Hopefully the bicycle lanes are in place. Don’t want to ride on narrow streets.

Enjoyed riding around Treasure Island. The views were nice. Did not enjoy the pedal back to the Bay Bridge. The ride up was brutal. The coast down was great, but the pedal up was brutal. At least there is a bicycle lane.

Off To San Rafael

Going to pedal to San Rafael and go to Phyllis Giant Burger’s. The one is Mill Valley is temporary closed, but the one in San Rafael is closer.

I thought it would be in downtown San Rafael. It wasn’t. I also noticed that there aren’t too many bicycle racks around. San Rafael does have a nice downtown.

Finally made it. There are no bicycle racks. Had to lock up to a pole. The burger was good.

Can’t believe the rain decided to stop by. I wasn’t expecting any rain. Wasn’t supposed to rain but can never trust the weather reports.

Nice to see the bicycle lanes on Fourth Street are completed. Makes for great riding.

It is always a pain to ride when the work on bicycle lanes are being done, but when they are done it is so nice to ride.

Even with the rain it was a nice ride. I wanted to go to Phyllis Giant Burgers in San Rafael for a while so it is nice to pedal out there.

I really hope car culture does not win and the bicycle lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge is removed. I like exploring Marin County on my bicycle. I really do not want to put my bicycle on my car and drive over there to just ride.
