Shoreline Hwy turned inland, so today’s ride was mostly through farmland. In contrast to the giant trees from a week ago and the gorgeous coastline from the past few days, we rode through lots of green pastures.
We saw many cows, horses, sheep, goats, chickens and geese. Then we rode along an ENORMOUS bay for many miles.
We stopped in Point Reyes Station to check out the original Cowgirl Creamery shop, Bovine Bakery, and a bike shop. But the guy there was super icy and rude, totally unlike any other bike shop employee I’ve ever met. So, we continued on our way including along a dedicated bike path for awhile until we encountered:
Fortunately Glen has super strength as one of his hidden talents so he pushed the fallen tree out of our way and we rode to our home for the night.
Glen: The guy at the bike shop did at least hook me up with exactly the right bolt to hold my rack on correctly, so that’s good. We tried to play bike Samaritans and help someone install a new tube in her tire, but somehow managed to pinch or rip the tube in installing it. Hope we have better luck when we get a flat. Also, we stopped at a super sandwich shop in Tomales, CA, and picked up two tasty sandwiches we ate for lunch in Point Reyes Station.
Alissa: Glen is too nice and doesn’t like to say anything mean or bad about anyone. The bike shop guy was a TOTAL. JERK. He was rolling his eyes and completely dismissing us when Glen was talking to him. He told us to take our bikes out of his shop and when I asked him to take a quick check of my brakes he, well, didn’t. Yes, he had the right piece of hardware for Glen but THAT WAS IT. If I could, I’d tell people never to go there.
