Bonnie's Favorite Ride

Myakka State Park

Saturday, December 10th, 2005


Clark Road - SR 72 - early AM


My favorite tree.


Nice early morning sky.


I'm such a poet.


I wonder what is around the bend?


Another spectacular sky.


Yarnall, Jan and Melinda smile for the camera.


The group leads north out of the park.


The paceline starts to fall into place.


Maureen snaps this photo over Arthur’s shoulder while riding on the back of the tandem.


This photo was taken after Yarnall and I opted off of the front pack.
The front group was traveling at 22 mph! We managed 6 miles with them.


There they go.


Maureen took this photo of myself, Juan and Mark at the fried chicken gas station rest stop at SR 70 and SR 72.


Another Maureen special of Gary and Garland.



Arthur and Maureen on M&J Road.
It's a wonderful thing to draft off of a tandem with a tail wind.


The jungle on the return trip back through the park.


Earlier we would see wild turkey’s which Yarnall was kind enough to point out.


The road home, no alligators today.

Return to the great outdoors.
