Theme: Biking
While I was in San Fran, my friend that lives there says to me, "hey lets bike ride from here to the Golden Gate Bridge" and then I said " Sure, that seems like fun!". Don't get me wrong, it is fun! But from the bay bridge to the Golden Gate is really far, don't trust your eyes! I am only good to give advice to Midwestern people. We have zero hills, so we can't handle an everyday bike ride in San Fran. It was a really beautiful experience. While biking you will always feel like you are going up hill and against the wind there. That is just how it is. Sure it is depressing when old people are riding their bikes past you and even people jog faster than you are riding. But don't be discouraged, after 8 hrs. you will finally get there. Besides being the hardest thing i have ever done physically, being on a bike that long really makes your ass hurt. I admit that there were times that I wanted to give up and just die on the side of the street, but it really helps when you have a strong friend to pull you through and remind you about what an amazing opportunity it is to actually get to ride a bike across the Golden Gate Bridge!
Equipment: when renting a bike, make sure you get a butt pad. I am not kidding, you will thank me later!
