I went to a wedding in Davis a few weekends ago. It was lovely, and just about as lovely as the ceremony was the ease of getting to and from Davis from San Francisco by Amtrak. I biked to the Ferry Terminal to pick up the bus that took me to Emeryville to catch the Capitol Corridor.
I brought my folding bike because I thought it would be practical, but it turns out you can really bring any kind of bike on Amtrak and hang it on these designated bike racks.
I hate wearing heels period, so I changed from my Chucks to my dress-up shoes once I got to Davis.
My hotel was 2 blocks from the train station. I stayed at the Hallmark Inn in downtown Davis. Again, I thought bringing my own bike to Davis was so practical, but it turns out that the Hallmark has a whole fleet of Globe bikes for their guests to cruise around bike-friendly Davis.
I fit everything I needed for the weekend getaway in my Basil panniers.
The Latte likes being a tourist!
And if you haven't had enough video of KT riding around in SF, here ya go (sans vuvuzela)!
