Ohio Reunion and the GAP – Part One
June 9-24 We passed the time at home for the next few weeks engaging in our normal range of activities; seeing friends, long rides on the road bikes, hiking as we train for the Camino de Santiago (Spoiler Alert) this fall, and part time project work at UNC Charlotte (implementing a bike share program, […]
Alabama Wedding, Part Five
May 7-15 With the nuptials to attend later in the day, we figured we’d do some sightseeing in the morning followed up by a hike, then return to the house to relax and clean up before heading to the wedding. Our first stop on the way to Fort Morgan, our focus for the morning, was […]
Alabama Wedding, Part Three
May 7-15 Back on Beale Street, we stopped midway down the block (almost all the action occurs in just one block) at King’s Bar, a place we’d seen in one of our prior visits, that has a patio between two buildings that features a stage. The purchase of a Hurricane, and later a big ass […]
Alabama Wedding, Part Two
May 7-15 For our second day in Memphis we were committed to getting in a good bike ride, one with moderate distance on a safe route, giving us another type of look at the city. With a little bit of research on the web we found a greenway, the Shelby Farms Greenline that we could […]
Alabama Wedding, Part One
May 7-15 A little over a week after our return from the Cycle North Carolina beach weekend, we embarked on a week long journey to Memphis, Tennessee and Orange Beach, Alabama. The latter part of this trip had been long planned, as we were to attend the wedding of Leigh and James. Readers may recall […]
West Coast Spring 2017, Part Six
Timeline: April 6-17 A few more of those delicious scones sent us on our way Thursday morning and prepped us for the drive back to Oakland. Both Jessica and Kris had plans for the evening (yoga and volleyball, respectively) leaving us free to consume a big lunch at where else, In-N-Out, somewhere between SLO and […]
West Coast Spring 2017, Part Four
Timeline: April 6-17 With a drive of a little under four hours ahead of us and a midafternoon check in at the motel, we didn’t need to rush out in the morning, a bonus as it meant we could miss most of the rush hour traffic as we headed south down the 880 towards […]
Philadelphia, Part Five
Timeline: March 18-27 Determined to see several sights our last day in Philadelphia, we were out early on our way to the first stop of the day, the Mutter Museum. Diligent sightseeing requires adequate sustenance though and so we dropped by Miel Patisserie for a late breakfast. We opted for the Le Parisien, Ham, […]
Philadelphia, Part Four
Timeline: March 18-27 We took our time getting out the next day, performing personal errands and just generally being lazy. Around late morning we walked over to the Reading Terminal Market to get some lunch, knowing that we wouldn’t be eating dinner until close to 7pm that night. Being a Wednesday, it was much less […]
Atlanta 2017, Part Four
Timeline: January 28-31, 2017 The agenda for our last day in Atlanta was simple; head to the Georgia Aquarium and arrive when it opened, thus gaining access to a discounted rate, saving about $10 apiece from the general admission price if we purchased the tickets on-line in advance. Alex printed them out for us […]
