Windy! I rode out to BBD. The path along New Tampa Blvd is so bad. I lose speed on it because I cannot go any faster and stay on my bike. Tailwind coming back BBD helped me regain my speed.
Saw a golf cart on the MUP stopped by the sheriff. An older Asian man with a walker was standing in front of the sheriff's SUV. A younger guy was standing by the golf cart.
