Saddle Time Training in Florida


One of my training rides while back in Florida. It's a 60 mile ride and was pretty warm as I remember. Not much elevation gain but I was just trying to get some saddle time in preparation for the Yorktown to Seaside adventure. Not really much stoppage time for the 4 hours, perhaps 30 minutes or so for traffic lights and such. Actually, I started out with a group of about 10 riders but got dropped after 25 miles near the entry of the Starkey Park wilderness trail. It's a six mile trail (the green area, upper right) that goes through an undeveloped park and connects with some other biking and hiking trails. I finished the ride in good shape as I slowed down and enjoyed the scenery for the next 35 miles.
