Bay City oldie
We spent a couple of days sightseeing in San Francisco. You have to love the 'F' streetcar line which consists of vintage cars from cities around the world. Fare $2, 75c seniors. Pic by Colin Marsh.

From Monterey to Le Mans
As a warmup for Le Mans I'm at Laguna Seca, near Monterey, California, for the six hour endurance race on Saturday. We are following the #11 JDX Racing Porsche of Matthew Marsh, Martin Ragginger and Chris Cumming. Pic by RLT.

Training in Toronto
I'm meant to be in training for the upcoming cycle ride Le Havre-St Nazaire in June. I took my 1972 Batavus Batafold bicycle for a spin, about 15 miles. The Batavus features a Sachs Torpedo Duomatic 2-speed kickshift hub gear - makes you work a bit harder. Here I am outside Curbside Cycle - notice the shopper-style bike in the window.
