- Rental: You can arrange for a rental bike (and helmet) to be delivered to the hotel for your use during the conference. To arrange this call San Diego Bike Tours at 619-238-24444. They will help you arrange for the right size and style (hybrid, road bike or mountain bike) and accept a credit card to reserve it for the period you want.
- Route: From the hotel the best route is to take Fashion Valley Rd to Friar Rd. Turn left on Friar and follow that about 2 1/4 miles to the bay where you can enjoy the bike trails around Mission Bay Park. See lots of info here.
- Company: ~susan.bramhall@yale.edu SusanBramhall plans to rent a bike and hopes to make an early morning 10 mile circuit before breakfast and would be happy to have company. Easy morning ride could be this 9 mile one or this 10 mile one.
- If you want to roll your own adventure here is a good map of bike routes around the city.
Eric Moore is planning on mountain biking on Wednesday in the Mission Trail Regional Park and says, "I'd love company! I'm renting a full suspension mountain bike for the journey. The San Diego Bikes tours company says they have plenty of bikes available."

If you were a professional surfer, you would be complaining how small the surf will be next week. However, for an outing, this may be the perfect time for those will less experience to get out and give it a try.
