From the foothills to the beach

This past weekend I rode my crappy old mountain bike from Lake Forest to Laguna Beach, hung out at sunset and then took the bus back home. It was a scary ride at one point along El Toro road because the bike lane ended and I was at the mercy of sharing the lane with speeding cars.

On a side note, here's an update on the evolution of my commute to work. First, roller bladed to the bus stop and took two busses (total time 2hrs). Then, bike to the bus stop and take the San Diego creek trail to work (total time 1.5hrs). Then one day I totally missed the bus because the times changed and I didn't get the memo. So I had to decide to wait 40minutes for the next bus or ride my bike the other 13miles to work. That's when I realized that riding my bike was way faster than taking the bus. Weeks later and a new low end Shwinn road bike later and I get to work in an hour and back in 1hr15min.
