Race Across America Begins in Oceanside




Today's swim around the pier was with the slight current from south to north, and it was uneventful for me. The water had a chop of about one foot to it but that was about the extent of the negatives. The water was chilly and I swam a very slow, relaxed swim with my fins, just relaxing my neck and taking it easy. Funny thing that there were more surfers today than yesterday and today the surf was lousy. There were about a dozen on each side of the pier-in close because the smallish waves were breaking in close to the shore. We need more sand on our beach! The beach got too narrow somehow. Where is our sand?
So this upcoming weekend there will be a bicycle race with support vehicles leaving from the Oceanside Pier and racing across America. They have taken over the parking lot at the south side of the pier.
