A romantic dinner on the road with the love of my life



Would you care for any pizza with your cheese, sir?



Home for tonight.

Kelsey’s pizza is ok imo but I really like their Greek Salads

E: as you get closer to cocoa, you should check out Indian River Dr. It runs parallel to US1 but it’s next to the river and is v pretty. It’ll take you pretty much right to Cocoa Village

All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world, so there was only one thing I could do:

It's a love affair. Mainly jebus, and my racecar.

Here's some inspiration for your trip:

Cycling from Canada to Mexico would be a tough challenge for most cyclists. Incredibly, Karen Darke "pedalled" the 2,000 miles (3,219km) using only her arms.

But Floridamaningitis isn't directly fatal, it kills you through you making really stupid decisions. Surely 14 is thoroughly inoculated for that by this point?

Likely dehydration and/or low blood sugar. A trip like this can and will deplete more water than your body can take in. Take breaks when you need to and remember to eat.

It sounds silly to remind someone to do something as simple as eating but if your blood sugar dips too low, you wake up in the ER of some strange small town. Or worse. Hypoglycemia sucks.

Drink more water. I drink at least 100oz when touring all day. 200 or more when it is hot.
If you aren't pissing clear all the time, you're not drinking enough tbh.

Don't forget to get some electrolytes with all that water though. Water poisoning is very real.

Also, I recommend no just eating a few big meals. Eat all the time with a fair amount of simple sugars. If you don't go for the energy food, honey buns can be surprisingly effective (and cheap).
