Surfers Below Us!
On our Mission Bay Bike Tour we get to go out on Chrystal Pier and stand above the surfers - you won't find this in Kansas - or anywhere else really...
Let’s Get Lost
Reason #308 I Call This Paradise! It's true I am easily bored but even after living in San Diego for 22 years there's always more to explore on my bike...
Coronado Kiteboarding
Don't be surprised if the next time you go to Coronado's beach you see a person zipping through the water (and flying into the air) while being pulled by a giant kite. The sport is called kiteboarding and it is the perfect mix of surfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding and paragliding. Kiteboarders are able to ride continuously rather than sitting and waiting for waves like surfers...
Sunken Ship – Do I Dare?
‘Sin Ship’ was destroyed by a storm in 1936. The 2016 El Niño storms cleaned up the shore and the SS Monte Carlo is more visible than ever. Excited tourists and locals have seen walking, climbing and even exploring the wreckage looking for silver coins! In the Prohibition days, the ship was anchored in international waters to avoid U.S. laws. People searching for gambling, prostitution or bootleg whiskey would take smaller boats out to the ‘sin ship’ for a night of revelry...
Drive & Ride Safely
Let's All Do this! Always pleasantly surprised when I give cyclists room while driving that those in back of me do too! Let's all drive like cyclists even if we're not one...
No Rain Just Flamingos!
Rain was Predicted - But SUN Everywhere! 90% of the time when rain is forecast here in San Diego it doesn't happen. Our Coronado Tour Bike Riders and the local Flamingos seem to like that! Just a 5 minute walk to the Marriott Hotel to see them...
Feb. Ride: 69°
YES, Feb 4th was 69° & Sunny with a Really FUN Group! Did you ever wonder why we always call San Diego our Paradise? Almost never too hot or too cold! Perfect weather for a bike ride...
Elvis Rides a Bike too!
Elvis is a WONDER! He sings, he dances, he rides a bike and he makes this kid very happy! If you haven't seen the movie I highly recommend it! https://elvis.warnerbros.com...
Why Not Both Routes?
Our latest Mission Bay Bike ride on the coast we couldn't decide on the tranquil South Shores or the lively Belmont Park route so we did both! Such a fun group...

Happy Holidays
Our Coronado Riders always enjoy these lovely messages from The Sandcastle Man. Different ones every day! Look for him in front of the Hotel del Coronado...
PB Holiday Parade
We went a couple of blocks off our normal Mission Bay route to see this - all thought it was worth it! Although San Diego is the 8th largest city in the US it has many small communities. Pacific Beach (PB) is one of the most unique for sure! Ho Ho Ho...
Merry Christmas!
A Bike Christmas Tree! Oh those Aussies are so creative and do love cycling...

BEST Coronado Bike Tour EVER!
Perfect Coronado Bike Ride! I love every Scenic Cycle Bike Tour I lead but riding with my daughter can't be beat! She had visited Coronado before but never on a bike and she loved it too...
Spinning in Paradise
We see lots of art on our Coronado Bike Tour but this is most riders' favorite. "Bring the metal to life. This is my mantra as an artist." says Amos. You can find out more about this incredible artist here...
Slomo Finds Happiness
John Kitchin is a neurologist who left the medical field because he wasn’t truly happy. John found happiness in a rather common activity: roller skating, which he now does all day, every day in Pacific Beach...
Thanks Apple Maps!
Apple Maps offers cycling directions along bike lanes, bike paths, and bike-friendly roads as much as possible, complete with details like elevation, how busy a street is, and whether there are stairs along a route. On the Apple Watch, voice guidance and haptic feedback make it easier for users to stay focused on the path ahead...
Watching Surfers on the Pier!
We're standing above the surfers! On this Mission Bay Tour we walked out and watched the surfers right below us...
