Woefully unprepared (#2) and on my mom&apos;s upright commuter bike (#3), I got lost in Camp  Pendleton (#4) after convincing the entry guard I&apos;d walk my bike all the way to San Clemente since I didn&apos;t have a helmet (#5).  Pretty soon I started hearing closeby gunfire (#6), found myself next to extremely fast traffic (#7), and was eventually escorted off the premises by a friendly, but firm Military Police officer whose parting words of wisdom were &quot;you might want to try the 5; the highway patrol might have a problem with it, but you sure as hell can&apos;t ride back this way!&quot; (#8).&lt;p&gt;As soon as I got off the base, I opted to explore a bit before immediately taking my chances on the freeway. Sure enough, there was a deserted road a little off the beaten path, sandwiched between the army base and the freeway.&lt;p&gt;Pretty soon, I realized the MP had inadvertently dropped me off in familiar territory.  I was on the very beach trail to San Clemente I had taken with my dad, from many years prior in my childhood when I went on my first multi-day bike tour.&lt;p&gt;A few whimsical &quot;mistakes&quot; every now and then can make up for the rest of the bullshit in life.  Oh, the places you&apos;ll go!&lt;p&gt;Great post, thank you for sharing!</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Why I cycled a hundred miles to meet my first customer</title><url>http://www.cyclelove.net/?p=2190</url><text></text></story>
