Hello Brett, Thanks for the route. Yes, I figured out the right way to cross the hidden bridge afterwards.

I have since done the round-trip once more. Very cool route.
Now, I am on the lookout for more fun routes. :)

Kuji, Very funny comments indeed. Yes, it was a tiring ride but it was well worth it. Enjoyed the scenery along the way. Luckily, no worried phone calls since I had warned ahead of time that it was going to take a while (plus I was giving status updates as well, once every hour or so). You _MUST_ watch Seinfeld.

The trick to riding in the Redwood City area is to ride into the Marina and then use the bridge. This prevents you from having to cross 101. Check out this detail from the SF2G route: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=http:%2F%2Ftrail.motionbased.com%2Ftrail%2Fkml%2Fepisode.kml%3FepisodePkValues%3D1011645&ie=UTF8&om=1&ll=37.494516,-122.223351&spn=0.005048,0.011373&t=h&z=17

Congrats on your adventure. It is great to hear about people using my routes.

Awesome!! Nice write up!!

1. Guess it’s the genes, I was laughing at the PH joke and Sugu had to ask why :)

2. Did you get any work done? :)

3. I cannot believe a veteran of driving bicycles and bikes in Madurai and Madras can come up with

“Seriously, people will try to kill you here.”

Bah, humbug.

4. Seriously I thought about biking here in the UK. Got a beer thinking about it and then was so tired that I had to rest for rest of the day. Go on make fun about English which can use the word rest twice, meaning different things :)

5. Didn’t get any of the Seinfield refs though :(

6. How in hells bells name didn’t Manni call you every 10 mins to check if you were OK?

7. Does Payya have a bike yet? :)

Congrats Krishna. Great stuff. Couple of minor speelling errors (falled) etc, but awesome writeup.

Love your Alice in Wonderland quotes :).

BTW, I worked for ~2 years in Seaport Blvd. Lovely place to work!
