Ride to Gioia Coffee Shop


Put my winter setup on my bicycle. I carry more stuff during the winter and I tend to stop and shop more. Don’t ride long distances during the winter.

Doing a ride to Gioia Ethiopian Coffee Shop. It is a new business and I want to check it out.

Got a honey cinnamon latte. Taste pretty good. Think I will have to put Gioia on my need a break spot.

Going to Albany Library to get some reading in before I do the pedal home.

Bicycle ride to Corte Madera Library


Taking a bicycle ride to the Corte Madera Library.

This is nice. There are new vinyl chairs to sit in. They are pretty comfortable. 

Getting some reading in. It is so quiet in here. One of the quietest libraries.

Need to make the pedal home, but I’m so comfortable. It is easy to ride somewhere, but the pedal home is a different story.

Made it home. Nice bicycle ride. Not too many bicyclist out. Well at least on the route I took.

Inside the Corte Madera Library.

The final stretch for the pedal home.

Return to Point Molate

​

Bicycle riding around Point Molate. 

The road is horrible. Have to take it slow so I don’t crash.

Richmond is working on walk/bike trail. It is going to be nice when it is finished.

Before the pedal home I sat at a picnic table and got some reading in. The sounds of the waves hitting the beach is really relaxing.

A nice bicycle ride

Ride to Albany Library

​

Think I will ride to the Albany Library. Looks like I’m taking the route along Cutting and the Bay Trail.

I have the kind of weather I like to ride in cloudy and cool. 

Seems to be a lot of group rides heading towards the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. Glad I’m going in the opposite direction.


A little artwork featuring the history of Richmond CA. Pretty cool.

Want to get some reading done so the Albany Library is a good spot and a nice rest spot before the pedal home.

Ride to YMCA and San Pablo Library

​

Going to take a bike ride to the YMCA for a workout. Left knee still isn’t strong enough for a long ride, but can handle a short ride.

The weight room at the YMCA is a little crowded. At least I found a spot on the AstroTurf area where I’m not too close to anyone. It was a good workout.

Going to ride to the San Pablo Library. Get some reading in and see if I can find an interesting book to read. Mission accomplished.

Survived the pedal home and the left knee feels good. Even cleaned my bicycle chain.

Bicycle Ride Rodeo Beach

​

On a bicycle ride to Rodeo Beach. A light ride to see how my left knee does. Going to take it slow. 

This sucks during my ride it starts to rain. Doesn’t rain on September in the SF Bay Area, but the last few years September has had weird weather.

Going to hide at the Hercules Library until Hercules Library.  

Knee is doing good. Still a little tender, but at least I can ride my bicycle.

Basically took the day off to test my knee and see how my Saturday bicycle ride will go. If If I take it easy I can go on a nice ride. Maybe Treasure Island.

Anarchism Explained

​Anarchism is the ideal of such a condition; of a society without force and compulsion, where all men shall be equals, and live in freedom, peace, and harmony.

The word Anarchy comes from the Greek, meaning without force, without violence or government, because government is the very fountainhead of violence, constraint, and coercion.

Anarchy therefore does not mean disorder and chaos, as you thought before. On the contrary, it is the very reverse of it; it means no government, which is freedom and liberty. Disorder is the child of authority and compulsion. Liberty is the mother of order.

New Point Molate Trail

​

Went to Point Molate Beach to check out the new trail. It was a nice walk.

I will miss the trail some homeless artist made using wood and walking through the wooded area. The artwork on the wood was cool.

It wasn’t a trail for the family or if your legs weren’t at full strength.
