I think you would be happier in bike friendly environment like Copenhagen [/quote]

LOL I was reading an article where Denmark is complaining they are being overrun with tourists and they were looking at ways to make themselves less tourists friendly (they get more tourists than the local population).

Anyway I have been to Copenhagen, IMO kind of flat and boring (The Little Mermaid is just a small little statue that graffiti artist paint sometimes). But the Beer is good.

my bike commute is perfect.

i enjoy being an oddball.

went hiking at dripping springs today, just a 10 min drive from my house.

rode my bike from temecula,to oceanside yesterday down the redone 76.

temecula is the nicest place in the world!
also how can beer be better than here????!

Isn’t 76 a 4 to 6 lane highway towards Oceanside? Is it bikeable?

Still very mpressive. Lots of hills. Especially compared to people who drive to the mailbox and let their car idle while they check mail.

Lots of great trails in CA–we’ve checked out many of them–and here’s a great resource:

next time, temecula to downtown SD and back

[FlyerInHi]

That is 65 miles, 1 way.
I don’t mind pedaling slowly, but I hate hills. Need electric bicycle.

If we are talking trails, the Bayshore bike way is pretty spectacular in central SD. It’s not 100% bike path but over half is and no major highways required. I often ride from Mission Valley to Border Field State park as well.

I just did my first century from Irvine Amtrak to the border 7 weeks ago.

I hope the invisible hand of the free market works out for the rural folks. I know they have the grit and determination to succeed.

While metropolitan America surges forward, rural areas continue to be riven by an onslaught of demographic decline, loss of manufacturing jobs, rising poverty, opioid abuse, blight, insufficient capital, anemic investment, poor infrastructure and an abysmally low participation rate in the global digital economy.

Finally, the city of San Diego is allowing development without parking. About time.
