I rode to the coffee and bagel shoppe only with Ed this morning. The others, from what I understood, had plans of hammering it during rush-hour traffic. I wasn't in the mood to ride fast on traffic-clogged roads during rush hour, so riding with Ed was the better of the two choices. Ed, by the way, is 81 going on 59. He’s a very interesting person to ride with and speak with.
After snacking and drinking, seven of us did the Robin’s Park route. Ed didn't feel like riding through Tree Tops Park, so we altered our route so as not to include Tree Tops after riding through Robins. Both parks because of their curvy, narrow bike paths are extremely slow riding.
It was a beautiful day, with the average temperature right around 82F and a steady wind blowing in from the northeast at around 8 to 10 mph. The humidity was quite high, but that was never an issue. After living in the sub-tropics for 71 years, one becomes accustomed to tropical temps and high humidity.
I think all of us did an equal amount of talking while pedaling. I like this type of ride! Thanks to Ed, Sandy, Greg, Marco, Tom and Ron, this morning’s ride was particularly enjoyable.
Nice. My kind of ride!
