sadly enough:
Tule Fog, obviously referenced to the plant "Tule"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schoenoplectus_acutus
which is about the only remnant of the days when
Tule Elk roamed
or when Tulare Lake was in it natural state.
we can be thankful for the Department of Reclamation for the removal of this environ
no what mostly remains is the Fog
and the ways of Tule use are long since gone...
well... here in Monterey we also have fog.
being on a foggy roadway is no doubt dangerous.
ironically riding at night out in the "Tules" with an 800 lumen light is fairly obvious.
I think the most dangerous times are in the early mornings. I'd try my best to simply be off the roadways, and hopefully a cyclist could ride on a separate bike path.
