“For thirty years, I went around everywhere on my bicycle. No matter the destination, rain or shine, I’d go there on my bike. Even if I was going to a fancy event, I’d show up in my tux in ankle straps, rain-drenched but happy.” J.J Sempe...
In the 80’s after a huge storm there was buildup of seaweed. The maintenance man cleared the mess up by piling sand on top, creating these large mounds!
That’s right it’s sunny here in San Diego in January. Perfect bike riding weather...
Thank you Cyclovia! Encinitas in N San Diego was temporarily closed off to motor-vehicle access along a portion of Coast Highway 101 to allow cyclists, pedestrians and other non-motorized travelers to enjoy the roadway without cars. FUN, FUN, FUN! There were sooooo many more people this year than past years. LOVED seeing kids reminding their parents how much fun riding bikes together can be...
With all the changes due to the re-model and then being interrupted by the Covid shut-down we sure are glad to be able to ice skate at the Hotel del Coronado again this year! Ride your bike there, skate in shorts and then go for a dip in the ocean...
We weren't sure if the lovely Bird Lady would return after the remodel of the Hotel del Coronado - but she did! On our Coronado Bike Tour today even got to talk to her and learn her name as well as today's hawk's name! They did a great job keeping the seagulls away from those dining outside...
So cool that this mom gathered her family together from all over CA to celebrate her son's 25th birthday! And he's in the Military so even more reason to honor him...
An Island in the Middle of the Bay! On our recent Mission Bay Tour the group wanted a few more miles so I took them to Fiesta Island where it's a 1-way road right in the middle of Mission Bay. [...]
Beauty Everywhere! I admit I watch the Tour for the castles, flowers and hills as much as the riders...
So Much to See in San Diego! "Wow, San Diego is larger than I thought!" said one rider on today's Coronado Bike Tour. Here we are viewing San Diego from Coronado's 12 mile Silver Strand; a stretch of totally segregated Bike Path...
The Baby del was originally built in San Diego and called the Livingston House. In 1887 Chris Mortenson moved it to Coronado by barge...
A 9-mile Bike Path runs next to a dirt trail in Coronado, California. The trail, known as Nature’s Bridge to Discovery, is full of surprises...
Riding a Bike Opens a Whole New World! What I hear most from our local riders is "I never realized...this was here!" It's amazing what we notice when we slow down and ride our bikes.
These airy suites and cottages sit directly on the pier and feature separate living rooms and private patios/decks with beach views. Most units also add kitchenettes. On the pier overlooking the ocean, this quaint hotel with beachy, New England-inspired cottages is 2 miles from Belmont Park and 4 miles from SeaWorld...

Happy Valentine's Day All! Our weather is perfect year-round - come cycle to the ocean with us...
South Shores Park was one rider's favorite places today. You can rent a boat, swim, water ski, windsurf, SUP, have lunch or just sit and relax! Nestled in the west end of the beach is a network of channels and islands. There is SO MUCH to see on our Mission Bay Bike Tour...
This is Right ON the Bayshore Bike Path! Initially, this was just a Bike Cafe - now a Bike Shop and Brewery too! Today's riders wanted to go a bit further on our Coronado Bike Tour so we rode down the Silver Strand bike path and stopped here. Not sure what a brewery has to do with bikes but it sure was busy! They also serve lots of food...
