The best way to do this is by beach cruiser, something we all know. However, instead of aimlessly biking about, I recommend biking PB with a plan and stopping to taste bloody Marys along the way. There are few things as delicious and refreshing as a bloody Mary, especially when you\u2019re hot and tired from biking. It\u2019s the perfect pick-me-up. Plus, it\u2019s healthy, since bloodies are made with tomato juice and chock full of delicious vegetables. It\u2019s a win-win situation, as far as I\u2019m concerned! I recommend starting your trip at Mission Bay Park and following the beautiful path west as it traces along the bay. Take your time and enjoy the sights and sounds \u2014 kids on playgrounds, girls heading to the beach, guys playing volleyball. As soon as you get to the Catamaran Resort, get off the path and cross over Mission Boulevard toward the beach. Bike along the strand until you get to the Shore Club on Grand Street. Enjoy your first bloody in an oversize goblet as you overlook the crashing waves and pier. The bloodies are a bit pricey at $8 each, but they are large and delicious. When the music starts to get really loud or the place starts filling up, you\u2019ll know it\u2019s time to move on. Get back on your cruiser and head north until you get to Emerald Street. Hopefully you\u2019ll get lucky and catch PB roller skating legend &#8220;Slo Mo&#8221; on your travels. If you aren\u2019t familiar with &#8220;Slo Mo,&#8221; you\u2019re probably not a local. But you\u2019ll know him when you see him. Veer off on Emerald Street and hit up Bare Back Grill for its Saturday and Sunday $3 bloody special. They\u2019re made with Ballast Point bloody Mary mix, and if you\u2019re feeling a little wild, try the bacon bloody Mary. At this point, you\u2019re probably feeling really good, so I\u2019d recommend keeping the bike locked up and walking next door to Hennessey\u2019s Tavern. Hennessey\u2019s bloodies are made fresh and spicy with horseradish, Tabasco, celery salt, salted rim, celery and lemon wheel. Hennessey\u2019s bloodies are on special Saturday and Sunday morning for $4 each, so feel free to have seconds. After all these bloodies, call yourself a cab or walk home.
