Day 8 and 9 Ft. Bragg to San Francisco - San Francisco to Palo Alto


View from the SF VA
Jack and the OAS crew come storming into San Francisco this weekend under spectacular weather in the bay area. Jack was joined by several cyclists as he crossed the Golden Gate Bridge and rode into Fisherman's Wharf and Scoma's restaurant. Scoma's hosted the second major fundraiser that night with several active duty soldiers from the bay area. A packed house welcomed OAS and it was a very successful event. A special thanks to Cheryl, Marion and all the folks at Scoma's.
Jack reaches SF
On Sunday, many patients from OIF/OEF and the Palo Alto VA met up with the ride. Four blind soldiers on the back of tandems were also part of the group. It was a very special moment for Jack and the crew.
A big send off from SF VA
Later, Jack and JR took a tour of the VA and visited many patients. It was a great day for OAS.
