Well, after checking the weather forecast a few times for wind direction, etc, looks like the Fort Pickens Loop is a go for tomorrow! We will start at 7am from Fish and Wildlife for this 45 miler. The pace will be moderate as both the longer route guys will be riding alongside the shorter route dudes. We will have one scheduled rest stop to fill the tanks and tell stories. (There will be a regrouping after the Brick Wall Sprint as well) Please bring $3 just in case we don't have enough passes to get everyone in "free".
If you want to start on the south side of 3 Mile Bridge in Gulf Breeze, we should be cruising through about 7:20am. Please be ready, as we won't stop but just slow down to pick the riders.
We should be home with plenty of time to watch the front contenders launch for the Time Trial from Grenoble in Le Tour de France. This will decide it! It has, in fact been one of the most exciting Tours this rider has seen in many years. Good fun!
Sunday, we will try to ride, weather permitting, the UWF/Scenic Hills loop at 3pm from Firestone and Summit. The pace will be easy to moderate for this 35 mile ride in the hills. Come on!
Last Wednesday evening's ride with the Wheelmen was a lot of fun. We had a huge group of riders. Several F&S guys showed up as well. Nothing really exciting to report...except we almost lost Gianni on Scenic Hwy, (don't ask) needless to say it was very scary!
Weather permitting, I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning. Until then, I'll...
See you out on the road,
Bob
