162 steps plus some

Tom visited me in Los Angeles a few years ago, and I nearly lost him after convincing him it would be a good idea to bike 14 miles across the city at 2am. For some reason he still trusts me and came to visit for the weekend. This time we took a walking approach to the city, and on the way to Golden Gate Park decided to check out the famous “162 Tiled Steps” which is exactly what it sounds like, and every bit as exhausting as you would expect 162 steps up on one side and back down the other would be (especially when carrying one’s bike and a 10lb lock).
