Short Ride Around Town the Day After Christmas December 26, 2015

I decided to take a short ride the day after Christmas. I did not have any plans so I went around the San Pablo and Briones Reservoirs to Highway 24 which led me to Highway 680. I decided to stop and take a picture of John Muir's old house in Martinez along the way. There was quite a bit of frost on the back roads. The temperature was around 40 but lots of sunshine.

Mount Tamalpais Ride December 5, 2015

I have ridden two of the three high peaks in the San Francisco Bay Area - Mt. Diablo and Mt. Hamilton - so I needed to get to the third high peak Mt. Tamalpais which sits at an elevation of 2,572 feet. It was a little cold out but once rolling everything felt fine out. This is a great ride and you can see the San Francisco Bay, the Pacific Ocean, and Muir Woods. You might think you are up in the Sierras the way things look riding up to the summit.
