Day 1 - July 26, sponsored by Perforce Software


My entire blue planet run team met me for breakfast at the Front Door Cafe in downtown San Francisco. At 9:00 am we said our goodbyes and I turned the corner with 80 pounds of baggage. The route went from San Francisco to Santa Cruz by way of devils slide, a challenging long uphill. At Half Moon Bay I met up with Peggy, a blue planet runner and supporter, who treated me to lunch and a "flat tire" Belgian beer.

After some mechanical problems I made it to Santa Cruz by 7:00 pm where Pam hosted me for the night. I was treated beyond expectations, with a wonderful meal, a great night sleep, a ride to the bicycle shop and tons of cycling advice. What a great way to get started!
