Step 1 of taking a bicycle 120 miles out of San Francisco without a car: ride to BART station (the subway in the Bay Area ).

52 min later, we arrive in Monterey. It’s the last stop. The transit center is pretty well located and you can walk or bike to many hotels from here (unless you’ve opted for a fancy hotel closer to the water / aquarium). There’s a grocery store and some decent restaurants. I’m going to check out a very traditional and cheap Japanese restaurant that’s been here forever.

This is giving me life. Ocean Sushi Deli in Monterey. High quality and homely food. Reminds me of my Japanese friend’s house when I would go get fed by her parents. Hehe I’m so glad I have this spot

@skinnylatte yum!

@skinnylatte Wow. Kerning got me... I really really thought that said horney, not homey.
I spent far longer than I should admit wondering how food could be horny, and why you would make such an obvious spelling mistake.
I should get some sleep or something... looks yummy though!

@m some food can be….
-
@skinnylatte yesss there's a place near me that's the same type of home style Japanese food and it's so comforting.

I made it! Almost 12 full hours to go 100 miles haha
Sleep awaits, and then I’ll have a full day of work and meetings tomorrow (and this entire week)! Everyone is flying in from everywhere for a major organization milestone

At 6:45am, I rode off toward the water. I’m not familiar with this town yet but the water always tells me I’m headed towards work. I stop by a historic building by the water that has cheery art that says ‘the Spanish conquest through conversion’.
The message feels grimmer than the art.
The air around here still smells like anchovies.

I wanted a ‘biking and birding life

@skinnylatte Your job posts give me hope, thank you.

@skinnylatte nice bike! Is that a burley travoy hitch under the saddle?
-
@signaltap yep! Good eye

@skinnylatte I didn't know about that website! I use https://asm.transitdocs.com/, but it's harder to get that to load when you've got a slow internet connection (like... if you're on an Amtrak train).
