After not meeting my goal of a 4 day Festive 500 completion, I was determined to surpassed 500k today.
Still sore, John’s suggested rendezvous of 7:30 allowed me some extra Z’s.
We rolled out towards the beach and I thought about how seeing the sunrise each day has been great.
I wanted to be back home by 10. So we picked up the pace. That means less pictures. ; )
Our route was mostly pretty quiet. Neighborhood roads, out towards Safety Harbor.
Chilly for Florida, we both had arm warmers. Again, our pace compensated for the 50 degree temp.
And, I was glad i brought my vest Philipp had got me at the Freiburg Collective.
In an otherwise uneventful nearly half century. Somewhere along the way I met my 500k goal.
What better way to celebrate than with a natty fab?
After all, “A goal is nothing without at least a moment of panache” -Bill Strickland
When I wrapped up my ride I was ranked 35th. Now its like 66th…
And where the hell did Kristian House come from!?! He’s closing in on 1000k!
I think I’ll sleep in tomorrow but do plan on taking advantage of the remaining three days to ride.
Here’s a breakdown of my rides totally to 536km. Read all posts here & photos here.
