BikerZ & Dachsund,

It was great to meet both of you. Definitely worth getting out of bed on a Saturday morning!

Trip highlights:

* Seeing the celeste green dog leashes that match Amy's Bianchi. I still think you should get the leashes, even if you don't actually use them to walk your dachsunds.

* Getting scolded by the walkers who were walking slowly and then standing smack dab in the middle of the bike path. Um, you're scolding US? Ha!

* Heart Rate Hill by Golden Gate Fields. Great potential for hill repeats.

* The sprints. Wind sprints at that!

* Beautiful scenery. The Bay. The boats. The bridges. The fog rolling in. What's not to like?

* Great company!

Thanks, Ann, for organizing this and being our fearless leader.
