COUNTY PARK BIKE RIDE WITH WIFE

Summer is upon us and numerous SUV moms are bringing their kids to summer camps inside our county park. This means that a certain degree of danger now lurks on the roadways inside the park.

Oblivious to anything and everything other than their brats in the back seat and their cell phones in their hands, these monsters-of-the-parks have the potential of running down bikers and pedestrians. – and they probably wouldn’t even know they hit someone.

Anyway, Janet J (My wife) and I did a sweet twenty-miler at a leisurely pace, stopping every so often to take in water spiked with electrolyte powder. We entered the park early enough in the morning so that we would miss the suffocating heat and humidity of latter morning.

Nice ride with my best friend! We plan on doing more of these rides during the summer and early fall months in preparation for a north/central Florida biking weekend.
