Trying New Things: City Bike Share

Hubs and I weren't feeling a hike yesterday. We didn't feel like packing snacks and driving to the trailhead and fighting for parking. We were tempted to just stay in the house and veg, but we knew we needed to get in some exercise if we were skipping our hike. 

We decided to go for a bike ride! Right outside our apartment is a rack of City Bike Share bikes. Just swipe your credit card and go!

We were amprehensive to try it. Neither one of us had ridden a bike for a few years and we scared it would be too hard or scary with all the city traffic. We definitely had to talk each other into it!

Once we were on them and rolling it was really fun! San Franciso has great bike lanes so the busy traffic was really no big deal. We had such a blast and rewarded ourselves with a bayfront brewski! 

Trying something new can be nerve-racking, but you'll never know what you're missing out on if you don't just go for it. Now I feel confident I can grab a bike and ride all over the city. It's no big deal! It makes me wonder what else I'm capable of trying.
