UK Guardian/Simon Jenkins: Elle Macpherson deserves a medal for defying the health and safety gods/The press are idiots to condemn the model for cycling without a helmet. The real villains are over-active traffic managers.
The day was a warm Saturday, and G and I decided to go to the farmers' market to get some local produce for the week. I like the one in Bernal Heights because it has a more authentic feel than the Ferry Building while also being less gritty than Civic Center. This woman in white capris, a lovely green halter top, and strappy sandals climbed Cortland with us.
As KT mentioned, it was blazing hot on Bike-to-Work day. I rode a little further than usual to the train -- it took all my energy, and I didn't count cyclists like I usually do. This lady had it all worked out with her light outfit and cruiser.
This young lady caught my eye as soon as she got on the train wearing jeans with embroidery, a matching jean jacket, and tank top color-coordinated with her embroidery. I was also impressed that she wore eye make-up, something I avoid when biking bc it can end up all over my face.
