What better way to describe myself and one of my great loves, Biking. I don't expect this blog to be about personalities, however I do appreciate the differences each of us bring to any commentary. The common denominator among all of us, I hope, is the bike and what it means to each of us. I enjoy, and I hope others will enjoy, a story about what ever possessed you to start expending your energy to move from place to place by bike when it is so much easier to drive in AC comfort.

Great day.....for a sailboat
Late start today. Doc appointment in Plant City. Was tempted to ride but just could not get ready quick enough and I wasn't sure if there was a place to wash up prior to my appointment. So I was left with only my 22 mile RT to CardioStart as my daily ride. With an easterly wind at my back, all the way, I made the trip to work in a little over 30 minutes. I know you guys with the road bikes are saying, fast??? I ride an old steel frame Mongoose. Never weighed it, but it is heavy. The bad part is the return home ride at 4:00 PM, against the same wind. Would you believe 1 1/2 hrs? Of course I did stop twice to hydrate. St Petersburg tomorrow.
