    I had the Shalon Monk bowl, with tofu, brown rice and egg white for lunch today.

    Awesome.

    Cool idea.
    Still figuring out how to use my crappy cell phone camera plus I did not bring the original photo with me, so the shots don't match the same point of view. I think I'll use my regular camera next time.
    I hope to become a regular participant

    Got it ...



    I got lost in the matrix trying to get here. Maps show two routes, but the really steep road has no gate to the park.

    Double Climb!

    Good thing I checked on here again before leaving the house. Saved me a detour and the disappointment at work to see that bill beat me to it.

    Quick work!
    And I though I might need to add another clue.
    This is along one of my regular commute routes (northbound only) but I seldom see other cyclists.

    I wish Google Maps would indicate when a road that goes to a park, doesn't have an entrance to the park. Just strange.

    I'll find a good location to tag on the way home.

    Another way to access that park is to climb the stairs from the elementary school parking lot. That's how the locals access it.

    My bike is in the middle of the bridge (you can barely make out the red paniers).

    I found a better picture for seeing my bike (though it did not have the entire bridge)

    Different angle and a crappy shot but I hope this counts. I don't carry a lock so I can't leave my bike alone like that.

    Assuming that Mark places the next tag "legally", he will have gotten and placed both tags in the North County AND the San Diego games!

    Next... Note that the flowers need to be in the picture as well. So on this particular path those are the only patch of flowers near the water.



    Last tag is located in Del Mar's Powerhouse Community Center.

    Got lucky to get two tags today. Great day for a ride.:face-monkey:

    I think this is the right spot(lighting is a little different).
    It's amazing how fast things go up at the Fair.

    You got it Dave. Looks like you need a dual kick stand to keep the bike upright. Or master the art of balancing the bike witha stick, helmet, or even a shoe! Check the other game thread for suggestions.

    In this tag, train is optional (wasn't planned, I got lucky)

    Got to the site just seconds before the train. That was really close.

    Brompton folder and the train makes a perfect match for touring or commuting to work!

    Metrolink Train in the 2nd photo. It has to be Oceanside. They don't go south of Oceanside.

    Tandem bike rack. Go find it...I'll be back in a couple of weeks.

    Technical difficulties on the way home prevented me from getting the next tag as planned. I'll try to get one tomorrow morning.

    Update: It seems there is a conspiracy to keep me off the bike this weekend. Sorry!

    I will not be able to post a new tag until Monday morning. So feel free to bruce me and post a new tag before then.

    Here is the newest tag. Sorry for the delay!

    One of the perks of parenthood is that you get to know all the playgrounds in the region. This one is very nice AND it is within walking distance of our favorite frozen yoghurt place.




    That previous tag is pretty self-explanatory. Along 101 Northbound, just out of Solana Beach.

    Here's another one that might not be too far off your beaten path.

    The last one was just south of Leucadia Blvd. on the 101 across from Leucadia Cyclery (in the background).

    That is neat.
    I was just thinking it's kinda funny that we post all these photos of our bikes without their riders.
    It's as though our bikes are sight-seeing on their own.
