I just wish you were still around so I could carry you now.

This is the companion piece to my Mother's Day 2022: https://www.strava.com/activities/7084320362

Scenes include the new center-running Valencia bike lane, an espresso at Linea Caffe on 18th St., the Bernal rock in Pride pink, Happy Donuts on Ellis, and a cookie at Maison Nico.  Meesh and Shalini/Ankan spotted me in the wild. 😇

Technical notes: Earlier drafts were ~50 and then ~40 miles.  I could've split it over multiple days, but I removed some lines to cut it to the distance I thought I could do in a day moderately safely with TSFM looming.  However, the route was constrained by the foot on Bernal and the two ways to cross 280 into Potrero Hill.  This route also had more doubling/redundant mileage than I usually like.

Pace wasn't exactly hard, but I wanted to test myself and had a mild urgency compared to other lollygagging art runs.  I was aiming for less than an hour of stoppage time and kept it around that.  I only used one Biofreeze packet around mile 30.

The Fenix 5s got down to 14% battery, but the Amazfit GTR4 was only to 70% -- amazing.  The AfterShokz also lasted the entire run, so backup headphones and battery pack were unused.
