BooYah!

Wind! Playing in the wind on the bikes is top of the line entertainment. For Florida flatlanders, the wind is what we have instead of hills. Ride in the wind; have fun and get a little stronger.

The chop in the protected marina.

We were off to Black Point Marina with the Everglades Bicycle Club group. There were over 30 riders today. It was a brisk ride. The day was (duh: July in Miami) hot and humid. But the wind and the abundant canopy in the Grove and Pinecrest made for nice conditions.

Rolling back to the Grove, we joined a group that was heading for breakfast at the Green Street Cafe. After scarfing down a truly fabulous omelette, Al and I rolled off, riding around a bit to up the mileage some before heading home. The poinciana canopy over South Miami Avenue drizzled orange flowers over the road, giving the end of the ride a festive feel. As if we were following the course of a confetti parade.

BooYah! Have we nailed a great Saturday or what?
