- i like to post pics from my rides, and although i've already posted a series on this particular ride, i was struck today by how the same ride can be somehow different on different days...

- so here are four shots i took after Nature literally forced me off my bike (making me think i should take up watercolors?) ... i thought i'd share [insert sounds of crickets, frogs, and a calling limpkin]:

first bend on a normal loop:

Hey, you know how to take and post pictures. Great. Thanks.

Gorgeous pictures!

Very Nice Pics!!

Nice pics. Nice photography.
Is that a hill in the 3rd pic or an overpass?

Yes, I know overpasses ARE hills in FL.

- as a matter of fact, just a week before this guy tracked me alongside the path (about 100 yards from the bend in the 3rd pic):

Nice pics. Nice photography.

Yes, I know overpasses ARE hills in FL.

- it's a hill... and to simulate hills down here, we use 40mph headwinds... it's not as easy to ride down here as some folks may think... (no coasting, always pedaling)

Those were some pretty nice pictures, thank you for posting them.

Thanks for the pictures.
