Yuck!!!!

I will win any trivia contest that asks about Picasso’s birthday in the future. It is the same as Keith’s!

How frustrating! Admire your tenacity to carry on. I guess there’s not a lot of choice.
I also had a look at Open Cycle map layer on Guru which shows the route you eventually took when you backtracked around the airport the other day. This version I suspect is current.

Ok! We have several here in Santa Cruz, but, unfortunately they are not used for the intention nor in usable shape. It is simple but not simple to maintain due to vandalism, sad to say…
I like the red one in your photo! Really “grabs your attention” even on a bike!

Maybe this is one of those “locals only” situations where they know how to “get around”…;)

Follow the yellow brick road..🙄

These fitness stops are frequently found all over, especially beside walking/cycling paths.

Excellent finish to a harrowing start!

We never did really take the time to figure it all out, but yeah, beige seems to be for pedestrians, green fefines the edges of the no car zone, and the orange posts are intobthe ground to keep cars from cutting into the no car area. There are also red lanes which we think are where the bikes were meant to go. Way too complicated when you are trying to figure out where you want to go while also trying to stay alive.

The problem is how to get to it.

Note the stair master to Dodie’s right up ahead!

It was relentlessly steeply uphill and the traffic, although most drivers gave cyclists enough space, was loud and also relentless.

Yellow ( beige) indicates pedestrian walking, correct? What is the function of the orange cones? To “protect” from the autos? The green actually reminds me of a putting green..;)( no, I don’t play golf)

But! A Lidl store..

Flatten out..pun intended and noted, Steve!
