Point Reyes by bike.

January 10th, 2006

I now work for Lonely Planet, a publisher of travel guides. Because Lonely Planet wants everyone in the organization to understand the mind of the traveller, one of my goals for the year is to do some travelling. We didn’t have any big plans during the alloted window to complete the assignment, so we took a day trip to ride bicycles at Point Reyes National Seashore. It was a nice hilly 50 mile ride, with generally good weather.

:Nice day for a ride.

My first thought was, “Yeah great, spend a day volunteering… grumble, grumble.” But as the emails started coming in, describing what we needed to do, it began to sound a little more exciting, especially the staff ride.
