I went on another beautiful bike ride with my dad today. It was a step up from our previous ride. We rode to the quaint, coastal town of Trinidad. It was a foggy Friday morning here on the North Coast, which meant for a cool ride. The sky wasn’t that gorgeous blue that it was last time around, but instead, its typical whitish-grey.
After climbing the hills to Trinidad for its spectacular view of the waves, we were greeted by this:
The thick, perspiring fog was smothering the ocean, and it didn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. No whale watching today. We strapped up our helmets again and off we went…

Question of the Day:
Do you like bike riding? My heart belongs to running, but I have certainly been enjoying giving my body a ‘rest’ with these refreshing rides.
Are you watching the Tour de France? The TV is turned on at the crack of dawn in this household for the month of July just to follow the yellow jersey. My dad owns a bike shop. Enough said.
