On the Road……Good-bye SF Bay Area — Hello Tucson, AZ?!

with 4 comments

Sad, but true. I’m relocating to Tucson, AZ and (at least for now) leaving the Bay Area.

The truck, my Honda, and the bikes in tow, make for a pretty long rig! Rolling into and out of gas stations (see picture below) was not easy. And I was always concerned about pulling in some place and not being able to get out again.

Anyhow, Tucson is supposed to be a great biking city so once things settle down I hope to continue dispatching bike-related rides and photos from the Southwest.

  1. Hey Nathan,
    That’s a big change. Good luck to you!. I’m slightly bummed about your move because we have relatives in Larkspur and I had this idea that I’d be able to join up with you for a ride around the area.

    Is that a Fit? We have a Fit and really dig it, although the studded snow tires we have on for winter bring it’s mileage down considerably.

    Best of luck in your new hometown!

  2. That is going to be quite a change. I’m looking forward to see photos of your new stomping grounds.

  3. Dave/ thanks so much…i don’t think i could have made a bigger change — climatically and culturally speaking! i was wondering if you might be back in marin and it’s too bad we won’t be able to meet-up for a ride. and, yes, it is a Fit (what they call a Jazz in other countries). i love mine. i bought it in may of 2006 (2007 model year and have about 50K miles).

    Myles/ i’m making my way westward to your territory…but it may be a little while before i can start up blogging with much frequency. anyhow, thanks for the kind words and good luck with all your interesting projects!

  4. good times! looking forward to more posts!
