the end of the beginning...

we effing made it! actually, we just fucking made it. sasq just gave me shit for typing effing, so i had to correct it there. anyways. we just fucking rode 5000+ miles across the country!!!!!!!!!!! (i hate it when people type more than one !, but i feel like it's warranted here hahahha). okay, so the past few days have been wicked epic and not, all at the same time. it's been slow and fast simultaneously. kinda surreal really. i'm finding it a wee bit difficult to find the words to sum it all up, but happy that i'm typing on a compy instead of a smart phone.

so i'm not exactly sure where the sasq left off, but i believe it was before santa cruz. we did a pretty cruisey short day into the SC where we met up with the big bro's SC & DC. it was fun and stupid and i effortlessly made a proper ass of myself drinking too much tequila. so sorry for that mess. sasq of course was left with the duty of cleaning up after me, which i might add, that she's gotten wicked good at. but hey, another story from the road, eh?

we rode on from there to half moon bay, which was a very sloooooooow day of riding. we properly dragged ass all day. all we had to do was ride 50 miles, and we dragged that shit out as long as humanly possible. we then dragged it out for so long, that it was too cold for being outside and sasq had a craving for some greasy food, so we did the only thing that broke cyclists can do--eat at mcd's. for the record, this was the first time that we've actually eaten mcd's on the road... other than ice cream... which hardly counts. we then snagged a sixer of all american bud heavy's and made our way to the HMB hiker/biker. it was cold and wet, and the tent was soaked, but we tucked in and watched some stand up comedy, drank our beers, and attempted to sleep as best we could.

we cracked open bright and early, and got ourselves sorted before the homies arrived for the final leg of the journey. the last 25 miles! we were joined by justin, reeni, john, and stu... and sag LB! it was awesome to ride into SF with a crew and have some company other than the sasq for a wee ride hahahaha just kidding; i'm gonna miss that girl, love you sasq! we cruised in, dipped our tires in ocean beach, partied on the beach, had a champagne shower, and are in the process of tearing it up. i reckon i owe sasq an eve or two, so needless to say she's hitting the bottle harder than i hahaha. feels wicked to be back in the city by the bay. cold, but wicked! thanks for all that came out and welcomed us back :)


cheers,
b.
