Crescent Beach to Flagler Beach



Yesterday I rode from Crescent Beach to Flagler Beach. It was a twenty plus mile ride. I was facing a stiff wind much of the ride. It was hot and I got sunburn, and dehydrated. It was a beautiful ride, and I truly enjoyed it, but I did learn a couple of important lesson. First was the importance of nutrition. I had not eaten much, a tuna sandwich that day, and it didn’t give me the energy needed for a sustained ride. By the end of the ride I was feeling the need for food. Second, my sunburn affected me the next day and made me feel bad. We will have to protect ourselves from the hot Florida sun. The area did provide many areas where a small tent could be pitched, some parks, and good places to eat. The trip that went through wooded areas that have picnic tables along the way. I made several stops and had many more that I would like to done. I am getting anxious to make our trip.
