No problems on the way there or on the way back, though the bike was real heavy and tougher to control on the way back. I also cut my finger unleashing the bungee cord with the S hook that was holding on the panniers. That thing is tight and snaps back fast if you don’t have a good grip on it.

On the way to the store I took little detour and cruised along the coastline for a bit looking at the fog overtaking San Francisco. Better weather is definitely a perk of being in Alameda versus the city. I might also point out that it’s 101 in Dallas right now versus sunny and 65 in Alameda. I do not miss the Texas summer.

With all that said, I like the bike and enjoyed taking the bike out rather than the car.

As of now it’s been 3 weeks since I’ve driven the car. Let’s see how long I can go.

I’m going to use it to cruise around the island. I’m tired of driving a mile or two. I’ve already decked out the bike with a front basket and panniers on the rear so I’m ready to hit the grocery store. WooHoo!
