I
was sitting on Baker Beach in San Francisco and a guy wheeled his bike
across the sand. He asked me to take a photo of him with a wheel in
the ocean and the GG Bridge in the background. I did.
The guy claimed to have biked across the U.S. on back roads, 3,800 miles in 38 days. He had a gps on his handlebars.
I
don't know if it was true. The guy was about 30, very healthy and
tanned. He said he was going downtown to celebrate and stay in a good
hotel. Will hotels let you bring your bike to your room?
On a personal note, my brother and my sister-in-law just rode across Iowa last week. I'm proud of them both.
