Tuesday, May 12, 2020 -- Marina Del Rey -- Clouds & Windy; Red tide is fading...


It's cool (high 60s) and more windy than usual.  Makes getting to this turnaround point hard (ride directly into the headwind)...

This is where I stop, take a short break (water/Gatorade) then ride back home.  This picture shows the "cageless" water bottle on the bike.  I also use a headlight (in flashing mode) even when riding in the daytime (the bike path is narrow and many people don't look ahead to see what's coming at them and will wander on the wrong side of the bike path.  The flashing headlight, even in the day light, increases the chance that people may see me coming.  If they don't, I have to say something...).

The puffy white clouds are fantastic...

Rare to see a tug boat on the Marina Del Rey channel...

More clouds...  The ride from home to this turnaround point and back takes a little less than 1/2 hour... (about 9 miles)

The red tide is going away.  I can see more of the rocks under the water and the color is fading...
