Florida by Bicycle: May 2015
http://floridabybicyle.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
The best way to see places is by bicycle. Friday, May 29, 2015. Where The Trail Ends. We were out doing an easy but long ride. We were on our old bikes so we weren't limited to pavement. Which gave us an idea. Where does. The unpaved trail off our regular route south go? We downshifted, left the pavement, and went exploring. A tiny piece of tranquil wilderness. We turned around and pedaled back to pavement, traffic, and the rest of city life. Monday, May 25, 2015. Memorial Day Ice Cream Ride. I'm thinkin...

Florida by Bicycle: Jupiter in June
http://floridabybicyle.blogspot.com/2015/06/jupiter-in-june.html
The best way to see places is by bicycle. Sunday, June 21, 2015. We had a true treat this past weekend. A fun weekend of riding with friends. The focus was on fun. Not miles. Not speed. Not training. Fun. Juno Pier (Photo by Larry Morat). Gawking at the fish under Juno Pier. Pedal, pedal, pedal. What a great route! Traffic was light. There was a wide bike lane. The views of the intercoastal waterway and later the beaches were superb. Was it hot? Pedal, pedal, pedal. We pulled into Ocean Reef Park....

Florida by Bicycle: Power Meters and the Weaker Sex
http://floridabybicyle.blogspot.com/2015/07/power-meters-and-weaker-sex.html
The best way to see places is by bicycle. Monday, July 20, 2015. Power Meters and the Weaker Sex. We listened to some good advice from two Everglades Bicycle Club friends when we were buying our current road bikes. They said, "Get a power meter." We did. Okay, so I know what you're thinking. Wow, now you can see what a wimp you are in numbers. The power meter, none the less, has changed my life. I'm not. Talking about using it to train to get stronger. I like to ride, but I loathe. We have a winner!

Florida by Bicycle: Miami When It Sizzles
http://floridabybicyle.blogspot.com/2015/07/miami-when-it-sizzles.html
The best way to see places is by bicycle. Monday, July 6, 2015. Miami When It Sizzles. It is full-on summer in South Florida, all tropical heat and humidity. Dust blows across the Atlantic Ocean from the Sahara Desert giving Miami's sky a soft, milky cast near the horizon. Hard on the sinuses, but it makes for beautiful sunsets. The summer is long and languid. We pedal and let our thoughts flow, thinking of trips to take and places and people to see. Enjoying the shade under the bridge to Key Biscayne.

Florida by Bicycle: January 2015

The best way to see places is by bicycle. Thursday, January 29, 2015. I'm not slow; I'm not fast. I'm half fast. (Unknown). I was really curious if being clipped in would make me faster. It does. With no extra effort, I'm about 2-3 mph faster. That means I make my wonky ankles turn the pedals 21,600 times. The first long ride I took clipped in I was having so much fun I didn't notice my wonky ankles.until I got home! Then I found myself looking really pitiful since I was limping on both. The US. Army...

The best way to see places is by bicycle. Tuesday, February 24, 2015. If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans. (Woody Allen). I adjusted my earbuds, turned on the music, and started today's bike ride. If nothing else, I have a great view while I pedal-pedal-pedal in our building's gym. Sessions on a bike in our gym. I really do not enjoy riding a bike indoors. (Who does? Four times a week for the next month," I replied, shaking my head and smiling as best I could. For this ride, the clos...

The journey within the journey. Thursday, April 25, 2013. There's some sweet and good riding starting to open up where i live. the weather is stabilizing and there's snow for sure but it's flurry type snow that blows hard and doesn't really stick. the rain's cold but that's what clothes are for - oh, and hot showers! Anyhow this is a sweet spot to visit if you need to know anything about bike repair at home . . . madegood. Is an amazing resource. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I ride for africycle.

The journey within the journey. Friday, October 28, 2011. Ride for Africycle 5.0 Day Nine. Otherwise, I couldn't tell you the route we followed. It was super hilly and there were some breathtaking views and speedy descents. Eventually we arrived in Millbrook and paid a visit to our friends Colin and Deanne at The Pastry Peddler. Here's Michael's bike waiting patiently while its owner puts an Americano and a pastry where they belong! Photo courtesy Ed Kwaka). Ed and I are planning on riding back as well).

The journey within the journey. Friday, April 29, 2011. Getting prepared for africycle, im rooting around on the net for inspiration for people who might be hemming and hawing (that's fifty three year old man talk for thinking 'bout it). i came across this . . . . Saturday, April 16, 2011. So i'm at the four week mark of commuting and it's starting to feel good again. Good means i can ask my legs to do something and they usually respond positively! I'm smiling and can't really stop. As a boy in england, ...
