I’m back in Pepsi cola and went out for my weekend gravel ride. Since while riding, I was mostly having my ass handed to me, I did not take many photos. Therefore, I though I would show you our route on this day and is relativeness to all things Northwest Florida…. FYI, our ride time was way faster than the listed 5:15. As you can see, we did roll into Southern Alabama just a touch. Although it was a sure fired butt kicking, the route was amazing and I can tell you that the stretch into Southern Alabama was outstanding! Amazing views and hard packed rolling red dirt roads.
One thing about these parts, there aren’t many water stops and the temperatures are getting up there. Luckily, our mighty leader Derek, located this church (of which there are many) and we used it to fill up our bottles. Appropriate I suppose since it is Easter weekend.
Our crew for the day from left to right….. young kid I don’t know and who I did not really get to talk with since he was off the front and I was generally off the back, Matt, Derek, Mike, Doug, Megumi, myself behind the lens and Bruce (not pictured) who smartly took a short cut back to the start.
