Cycle Ti Thunder

I have heard about this sport, but never watched it in person.  While we were visiting Fernandina, Florida we drove by this park and I had to jump out to see this action.  When I got up close I observed that a lot of the bikes had disc brakes with a shield on it.  The shield was in place to prevent the rotor from being bent.I asked a player on the sidelines where the part came from.  He told me some were custom made.  all of the bikes looked like fixies with a flip-flop hub and disc brake on the front.  I saw some amazing bike handling skills on the basketball, tennis court that was being used for the field of play.

I'm going to document some observations and experiences from my ride from Albany, GA to St. Mary's GA.  I did this ride to have fun and to see more of Georgia. The most recent observation about the ride came this morning when I rolled my bike out of the hotel to put in on the truck.  My rear tire had gone flat.  I had put new Gator Skins on the bike on March 20, 2015.  I was sad to have a flat, but glad that it did not happen on my ride.  I did not want to change an inner tube in the dark when I was almost to the end of my ride.  Riding in the dark can be tricky.  The roads between Waycross and St. Mary's had lots of wood chips that fell off the log truck and parts from tire carcasses all over the road shoulders. There is no telling what I rolled over as I was trying to be careful, but at night I just had to keep rolling along.  I am going to try some 30 mm  Schwalbe Durano Plus HS 399 Racing Bicycle Tire  on my next long distance ...

It was a nice ride glad it's done

Now this is a powerstroke

At first I wasn't going to whine about the rumble strips in the hot on the edge of the highway. now that I have a nice bike lane I'm dodging all the old tires glass rocks and debris. if drivers are going to go to sleep get rid of the rumble strip and just let him drive off into the trees who cares

I feel fine except the humidity is real is wearing me out

Feets don't fail me now
