I rode down to Flatwoods and did one loop. I felt good but didn't want to do too much. Also the skies were getting dark. Asshole in white Mercedes suv with Florida plates 727 YUE honked long and loud as he passed me on BBD. I was in the bike lane. I caught up to him at the stop light. I want d to smack his car but only called him an asshole. He passed me again and honked again. Sigh. Other than that jerk, the ride was good. Somehow I got the average speed to show up in Strava app and I don't know how to change it. It was something I missed from Wahoo but I could change while riding.

Not a good week. I got another cold which turned into bronchitis. At least I think it is that since I did not go to the doctor only to have them tell me what it is and send me home. The last time I had bronchitis was in 1996 and was hey gave me antibiotics which probably didn’t help because it took weeks to get over it. Now they don’t prescribe antibiotics unless you have other risk factors. Though I hate to stop my current streak of 519 days, I know I cannot ride hard or long. I rode for 30 minutes on Saturday at a normal pace and then coughed for over an hour when I got home. I will take it easy in February and hope this clears up.

I wasn't sure how far I wanted to go. I rode down to Flatwoods. The wind was strong but there was a break so I did three loops. Lots of people enjoying the sunny day.

The week started out very cold and I only got the minimum of miles through Thursday. I was still suffering with my cold as well. It warmed up for the weekend and I did a big ride for my birthday on Saturday. I found that I didn’t need a recovery ride on Sunday because I felt good. Not great for mileage but good in accomplishments.

Wind gusts up to 23 mph! Parked at the dog park in Tarpon Springs. It is across from the Trail. First leg goes right down Tarpon. I didn't realize there was a town besides the Sponge Docks. Looks interesting. Palm Harbor was familiar because we did a Photo Walk there years ago. Dunedin was very familiar as I have done several photo walks through the town. Food along the trail smelled good but it was too early. Most of the road crossings are four way stops. There wasn't much car traffic. Path cleared for a while. Trail changes route without good signage. The overpasses were killers. After four, I went the long way and dealt with the traffic. I did one as I turned around and found the rise wasn't too bad. Took a break at mile 30 to eat a stroopwafel. I finished my Sport Beans. I found some chews in my bag. 25 miles to go. I did better on the over passes when I got into my granny gear. They still aren't easy. I expected more tailwind. Took another stop in Dunedin and ate another stroopwafel. I had to ride a little longer to make my Apple Watch record 55 miles. My legs started cramping. I never felt that before!

I rode down to Flatwoods. I blew a snot rocket and maybe a bit too hard and my nose started bleeding. I didn't stop, I didn't slow down. I just used my rag to try to stop it. It took a few miles but finally stopped. I hate winter. Even in humid Florida my sinuses can get too dry. I kept myself to one loop and rode home. 21.41 miles 13.0 mph

It was not a good week for riding. I got a sore throat after my long ride last week. I thought it was the hydration mix but it was still there the next day. Then the sinus congestion, then the cough and finally laryngitis. I kept riding but trying to take it easy. Also, the Apple Watch January Challenge is to walk 4.3 miles each day. So I am riding less in the morning to get in some walking before work.

Wind gusts 24 mph! Riding north on BBD, against the wind. I knew I wasn't up for a long ride. I decided to try to find a geocache. (I had to reload the app.) I found a small, easy one at Walgreens. I didn't know to take a pen with me. I left a bandaid from my first aid kit. It is a good reminder to replenish my kit that I haven't opened since last century. The ride home was nice with the tailwind. My legs felt like noodles.

Chilly and windy, but bough gusts were only 10-12 mph. Rode up to Chancey then back to SR56 and around MP. I tried looking for another geocache but couldn't find it. Didn't want to stop for too long and get cold. Rode to Burger Monger for my free birthday burger. Problems trying to redeem it. Annoying. The burger was good and so were the fries. Until I had to ride home and realized the fries were too much.

South wind so I rode down to Flatwoods. Invalid SIM card when I got to Flatwoods. Rebooted iPhone. Four loops. Felt good. Trout Creek covered path. Two older cyclists rode on the bridge. Didn't care that others were there. Then another asshole did the same coming. I didn't expect it from the Olds. Rode to New Tampa Park then to @Starbucks.

I got a vanilla bean Frappuccino with toffee nut sauce and caramel drizzle. And pumpkin bread. When does the diet start? The ride home was good. My legs whined a bit as I started up after sitting at the coffee shop. I only got stopped at one light and forgot to restart my Apple Watch and lost two miles. The @ClifBar Spice Pumpkin Pie wasn't as good as the @Starbucks Pumpkin Bread but half the calories and lots more protein.
