TRAINING TO IRONMAN COEUR D'ALENE - DAY 3 SAN FRANCISCO TO MEDFORD

Morning Breakfast looking back over the golden Gate bridge and San Francisco


Riding in Mill Valley to Stinsons Beach




We woke to a clear morning sky in San Francisco and drove across the Golden Gate bridge to Mill Valley. We planned to ride over to Stinsons Beach as a local told us it was a great ride and it was a bit hilly. A bit hilly ... it was all up and all down to get to the beach and same on the return ... tough ride! It was one of the most beautiful rides I have ever done though. The views down over the Pacific Ocean are magic! Our ride was a solid 3 hours and by the time we returned to Mill Valley it was pushing 100 degree again!

After some lunch it was time to head north. We aimed for the Oregon border ... Medford to be exact. We drove through the afternoon in 100 degree + temperature. We were relieved to climb into the back of GT around 10pm and call it a night!
