Introduction

I'm Bob. I guess you could call me a recreational cyclist. I mostly do rides after work with friends and coworkers around the San Francisco Bay Area.

After being diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic, I figured its time to up the miles on the bike to keep the sugar levels in check. Also, with the surge in gas prices & traffic I figure its time to try commuting by bike. Commuting by bike everyday would great, but not possible since my commute by car is 70 miles round trip and 90 miles by bike.

So to mix it up, I drive part way to work and park my car at the foot of the Dumbarton Bridge on CA-84 saving a $4 toll, then ride in the rest of the way in. I started my commuting by bike in October and we shall see how it goes from there.
