Here we go again! This time it’s 10 days from the northernmost edge of Florida down to Key West. I flew in to Jacksonville yesterday and spent last night with my Dad and Janet; always great to see them. Today we had lunch at Safe Haror and then I rode myself and all my stuff up to the starting line here in Fernandina Beach, riding against the route. I haven’t been doing much riding lately but still it’s very easy cycling and so everything went well! I got pretty dirty from the water and mud kicked up off the road but that’s about it. I’m looking forward to 10 days of fitness, eating better, hanging out with old friends and just relaxing. So good to see friends like Carla and Duncan and Dan Boatright and, well, almost everybody on the trip! I had dinner with Sully and Rob Morris and Rob and I talked about the joys of home ownership; he is an architect and a house remodeling consultant. Oddly, I was in this exact place two years ago when we rode the other direction; we even ended up eating at the same Mexican restaurant I ate at two years ago. Time flies. Begin back in Florida is interesting and coming here to Amelia Island brings back memories; riding through the beach trees along the paths makes me feel like a kid again. Here’s to 10 fun days on the bike!
