So I made it to the Pacific Coast. Today me and Jasmine rode 29 miles
out to and around San Fransisco. Went on the Golden Gate Bridge,
dipped a toe in the pacific, and got to see more of the city.

It feels great to have made it here. But I'm still planning on going
down the west coast from here after a little break.

90.7 miles to Oakland, CA. Which is basically San Fransisco! I'll ride
out to the coast tomorrow.

Staying here with Jasmine from back in Philly who is now from Oakland.

59 miles to and around Davis, CA. Extremely bike friendly city.

Staying with a friend here. Thanks Ali, Lina, Cat, and Michelle for
letting me stay. Had a blast meeting you all and watching youtube.

Passed through on my way to Davis.

Bike paths, palm trees, Capitol building, new charger, post office and
Chinese food.

Can't talk. Left charger in Reno.

104.8 miles (new record) to Folsom.

Camping were I shouldn't.

63.4 miles to Woodfords, CA. Camped free at Crystal Springs national
park.

I don't think I'm that close to the wild fires in California. But the
whole area has been smoked out. Everyone was talking about it in Reno.
You could even smell it there.

Leaving Reno late yesterday, I was planning on staying another night
in Nevada, since thanks to Barry I had someone to stay with in Carson
City. But I couldn't handle being that close to the border.

Lame sign on the back road I took.

37.5 miles down the freeway to Reno. Got here way early to check the
city out.

Got a room for 35 bucks at The Heart of Town. And some guy just walked
in, I figure he had the wrong room or the wrong motel. But he's key
worked no problem. Ha. Got to love it.
