A ride by the Craneway Building and where Richmond is putting the new ferry. At least Richmond has begun work. Hercules just talks about their ferry.
Woke up in the morning and had a headache and my stomach didn’t feel that good. Thought I would pedal it away, usually works. Not this time just stayed with me for the whole ride.
Had my Nook with and I downloaded episodes from season 6 of Grimm. On of the best shows ever made as far as I’m concerned. Season 6 is the last season but it makes sense to me. Shows basically have a five year life span and after that the show goes downhill and becomes unwatchable.
There is a threat of rain but so far I have avoided it. The bike gods are being nice and I’m fearful. They are never nice. A little paranoia goes a long way.
I head to Point Richmond. Debating if I should stop at Starbucks or keep riding. There it is, rain. I knew the bike gods wouldn’t leave me alone. Isn’t it bad enough I don’t feel good. So Starbucks it is.
At least there is one chicken wrap left and I get a tall coffee. Might as well get some caffeine in me for the ride home. Starbucks is pretty empty so I get a table by the window. I want to know when the rain stops and then I can pedal home.
I take out my Nook and start another episode of Grimm. This is what a ride becomes when I don’t feel good and rain is coming down. Good thing I brought my rain jacket with me. Always be prepared.
Episode of Grimm is done and the rain has stopped. Time to start the pedal home. I like the ride through Point Pinole. Since I’m ready to call it a day I decide to take the short way home instead of the streets. Problem with the shorter way is I have to go through a muddy field. At least I get home faster.
Still not a bad day on the bike. I still got 28 miles in. So now it is time to lay down and take a nap. Damn Daylight Savings Time starts on Sunday. As far as I’m concerned Daylight Savings should start before Memorial Day and end the week before Halloween. It is basically a time for vacation and people who don’t work. Rant and ride done.
