Session Rides

My various commute rides can be broken into sessions if you will. During my first set I found myself keeping pace with an electric bike, who was clearly doing his best to drop me. Have you ever seen a Prius speeding? Ironic right? Well electrics are supposed to make it easier for you but this guy was sweating and mashing his pedals down with every head turn back to see where I was. It's these little things that amuse me.

We parted ways near House of Air. After a brief delay on the bridge due to the various color spectrums available in the horizon, I managed to latch on to two other riders through Sausalito for my next set. They were fast and clearly not concerned with me. They rode carefree as if to say grab the wave dude and hang if you can. I was flying and dying all at once. These kids were fast until finally, they were gone.

To close out the set I rode solo over horse's hill where I then met up with an old buddy at Peet's, as I sat and relaxed for coffee. Mike and I were former tennis teaching Pros. But that's a story for another time. For this session is over.
