Above Category, Sausalito, CA

If you make it north of the Gate above, and you'd like to check out a small seaside town AND a sweet bike shop, definitely stop in Sausalito and Above Category. You can easily make a day (or more) out of this town... touristing, shopping, etc. I don't think you'll be bored.

I really only stopped here for the bike shop, and it did not disappoint. It's really well done. Merchandise, selection, staff, etc. If you like bikes, this is a place to visit.

I was impressed and humbled by the amount of Dario Pegoretti bikes on display (RIP). Gorgeous stuff.

AT&T Park / San Francisco Giants, San Francisco, CA

Even as a lifelong Cubs fan, when one is invited to a suite for an evening of baseball, one attends. I could not say no to a night at AT&T Park, to see the Giants take on the Reds.

It's a very nice ballpark. I now wish I'd seen more of it. We were kind of whisked up into the suite-level area from the street entrance, and didn't really wander much further during the game. If I were to go back to this park (Cubs stand in July!), I'd like to see much more of the concourse level and outfield areas.

 Can't beat the views.

I very much liked this lit-up concourse outside the stadium.
