The San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge bike ride was cool in more ways then one. The scouts and adults rode on into overcast with chilly winds. They rode on the sidewalk and then gravel. Then rode (or walked) up a hill to the bridge. The veiw was amazing but you had to be careful of whipping winds, narrow points and crazy bikers. At the other end everyone walked up a hill to arrive at Spencer Battery, an old fort used to guard the Golden Gate from the 1840's to the 1940's. We had lunch at the old fort, took pictures and left. The ride back to the vehicles was easy, all downhill and flat with the wind to your back, nothing better! click here for pictures |
