Pre Golden Gate Ride Dinner

Had dinner with my son, Jeff Miller, CEO Alliance Walking & Biking, Leah Shaham, Executive Director of the SFBC and Mia Kohout & Tania Lo of Momentum magazine. We were carbo-loading at a gorgeous San Francisco restaurant before this morning’s bike ride over the Golden Gate Bridge.

I’m in town for the Angel Capital Association’s Annual Summit; my 6th year attending. My sponsor contribution is in the form of a bike ride the last 3 years and this year it’s really taken hold — there are 51 riders ready to roll. I’m combining my interests in angel investing and cycling advocacy.

Over dinner we spoke of many things and Leah had some advice for us as we begin a Bicycle Master Plan for Newport Beach: don’t get too analytical, maybe focus on the 5 best ideas. Don’t boil the ocean. Then get those 5 done. She should know and I’m sure I’ll be asking for more advice as the process begins.
