Sunrise at Crandon Park
Crandon Park
The city of Miami has done a really nice job of cleaning up Crandon Park. Everyday you see the workers cleaning up the seaweed on the shore’s edge with their machines. The best beach area is around the cabanas, makes you feel like you’re in a tropical island.
William Powell Bridge
Finally climbed the bridge coming in and going out. My legs have started to recoup muscle memory and my lungs are not freaking out anymore.
Still riding on the pedestrian path when crossing the bridge. These riders in Miami, not all of them, lack common biking courtesy. I don’t feel like biting it because some weekend warrior guy gets an adrenaline high and barrels into me trying to prove his bike can go fast downhill.
distance: 24.85 miles
Miami, FL
What can I say, it's Miami.
The inhabitants of this city prefer baseball caps over helmets.
The weekend warriors do wear helmets, but lack basic bike etiquette at times.
The delivery riders on electric bikes are just plain crazy, no road rules apply to them.
Look both ways and pray.
