Great report V. Sorry you didn't finish but what determination to get to 161. I saw the post about not finishing before I got through your write up and thought you were going to say around 100 or something, should have known better.
It was pretty cool to read about this and actually have seen some of these places. Next time I am in California I am renting a bike and riding the bridge at the very least.
