Mount Tamalpais...An hour and half to a the meet. I missed it by 18 minutes. I looked around the area. They disappeared without a trace like smoke. I needed to go to the bathroom anyways! After finishing up my business at the Coffee Shop, I drove up on Bolinas RD towards Mount Tamalpais. More than a half a year ago I drove that mountain. Reminds me of riding in a roller-coaster up and down slopes with bumps/shakes in them. Left and right curves with big blind spots around the U's. Large hills that slowly takes you to the top before the drop! Roads deep in the forest carved around the mountain. The road elevation just gets higher and higher. Driving along the ridge of yellow hills towards the west you will see the Pacific Ocean. Cold breeze moving in and large clouds covering the sky. Bicyclist, hikers, and runners alike getting their exercise on! Some stopped to pause and take in all the beauty there is.Guilty, I did it too hahaha. Finally, I reached the top of Mount Tamalpais. The group wasn't there. I took some pictures then sat there eating a banana and relaxing. Overlooking San Francisco. The Golden Gate Bridge. Pacific Ocean. mmmmm. mmmm beautiful! I drove all the way home on a different path and enjoy the ride down.
