This morning went for a great bike ride with my buddy Jody Hudgins. We started from Village Bike and headed up Longboat Key and back. The weather was near perfect on the way out but hit a head wind on our way back. Riding Longboat is a nice easy, flat ride with the two hills, Ringling Bridge and New Pass Bridge. Since we bike early, 5am, we avoid all the normal crazy traffic that can occur on that route. With the head wind, coming up New Pass wasn't too bad since it is a shorter span but going up Ringling...wow...what a climb. Jody just hammered up that hill like nothing. The guy is a beast on a bike. Puts his head down and just goes. In other words, he dropped me like a lead balloon. But getting to see the sunrise when at the apex of the climb was well worth getting dropped. Sarasota is such a great place to live, work and exercise!
