Waves to Wine Pictures

I only got 4 decent photos all weekend. And two of them I didn't take!

Our view as we headed to the Golden Gate.

A Cowgirl Oreo - not quite as tasty as a whoopie pie, but not bad.

Look who came to dinner!

The pics are GREAT! The Golden Gate one is soooooo pretty! Wow! :eek: When I was there 2 years ago I only got a good picture of the top of the bridge because it was foggy for 4 days. :rolleyes:
I also love the picture of all the TE women! Very nice to see faces!!!

Thanks for sharing!

Wow - great pictures!! And holy cow - barefoot unicyclists. OMG.

Sounds like a GREAT weekend. I so wish I could have been there (you guys were having lots more fun! ;) ), but thanks for the nice voice mails (that I didn't check til Sunday - long story).

Great photos. :)

There were a couple of unicycle teams in the 24hr race I did in June. Nothing like being passed by a unicyclist in mud that had to be seen to be believed to make you feel three parts awed and five parts inadequate... :o

Thanks for posting the pics! I loved the pic of the GG bridge, now that I've actually been there and ridden across. You all have some beautiful country to bike in. I want to go back and ride more!!
Nice to see so many TE faces, too.

Hey, Unicyle Girl has a blog !

http://graciesgallivanting.blogspot.com/

She mistook the climb up Highway 1 for Mt. Tam, but under the circumstances she could well be excused for that ! :eek:

Based on Gracie's blog, and reports from the gang at BikeForums, I'd say the Amici Veloci ladies made an excellent decision to bail out on day 2.

Lessee ...

Get up at 5 am, start out in the freezing cold, go over really crummy roads, and encounter rest stops which reportedly ran out of food (!),

- vs. -

Sleep relatively late, wander over to breakfast at the IHOP next door and be entertained by Katherine the uber-waitress, and then mosey up to the ever delightful Preston Winery for a wine & bread & cheese luncheon with a bunch of really great friends.

Gee, I don't know ... :rolleyes:

OK - here's mine, since I haven't gotten off my duff and set up a photo hosting site for all of us.

Dinner the night before at Kuleto's

Da Team!

San Francisco PUC supplied drinking water at the rest stop I was working at. Once we got past the initial confusion of who was doing what, it was quite nifty.

Once it got close to closing time at Rest Stop 1, I went walkies and took a few scenic shots.

Once finished with my volunteer duties, I drove across the GG Bridge, then up Highway 1, looking for familiar jerseys. I took the opportunity to play tourist too.

Then I spotted the elusive Amici Veloci rider...Veronica having chain issues

mtkitchn keeps putting a ? after my name. Am I that much of a chameleon?

Yes, all those are I. The purple gloves are the give-away, along with the weird faces.

Beautiful pictures.

I must ask all of you, how do you not have helmet hair? Honestly, you all look wonderful.

Looks like an incredible ride too :D

What GREAT pics. You all look so sharp in your AV jersey & jacket.

That looks like a real fun ride.

I just cut my hair shorter. When I take my helmet off I just kind of fluff it out.

Gorgeous Ride and Photos!

Awesome! And I'm jealous of your sunny weather! It's raining cats and dogs up here in the Seattle area! I guess if I want to look at the sun this week I'll just have to come here and look at your pictures again!
