Bike ride to the Beach






So Mike and I had been wanting to ride our bikes to the beach and finally the opportunity came up, Marcia told us her ward was going on a beach trip and we decided to tag along. We weren't sure what time, where or what but we just showed up with bikes. It turned out to be pretty fun, we were supposed to ride like 31 miles to beach but thankfully we started at a Yorba Linda Park so it was only 21 miles. It was alot of fun. The ride was easy and flat. Mike and I got to talk to each other for 2.5 hours... We kind of joked around, laughed, chatted, annoyed each other, got happy again, and overall it was a blast, a very tyring blast:) On one of the pictures i posted you can see Michael being mad at me, it was funny so I took a picture of him on action. The first 1.5 hours of the trip were all fine and dandy, the next thirty minutes it started to get tiring and we were kind of hungry. We didn't really plan all that well since we just kind of showed up at last minute. Thankfully I had a small little bag of check mix in my back pack that I very lovingly shared with my hungry husband. The last hour my knees were feeling it and I got a flat. We were about a mile out from the beach but we had to stop by the gas station for air because my flat had gotten real bad. Michael had the bright idea of leaving his wallet behind in the truck and I figured I didn't need mine since Mike always has his. So when we got to the gas station the guy said we had to pay .75 since we werent gas customers, and we had nothing, so we decided to walk to the next gas station but the gasoline guy called us back. By the time we got back to the air pump it was about to turn off but i got enough air to make it to the beach. I was pretty tired once i got there and there wasn't any food, about 30 later they started to boil water for corn. it was the most delicious corn i've ever had! later on we found out they used ocean salty water. Alot of us were confused to hear that but were to busy stuffing our faces with corn. Later on they made hot dogs. I would definately like to go back and do it again, except this time i'll take an extra pump and mike's wallet (notice I didn't say my own mwahaha)
