hey seagrape...just read your post and my shoulders drooped!!! i hate to hear that people have such d@** luck doing something they love![]()
i seem to remember you mentioning you have a mtbike...let me just express the first thought that came to my head:
i just moved from sofla and could not have gotten out sooner...the drivers are enough to scare the be#$%^ out of anyone, let alone the "attitudes" of the walkers/runners/rollerbladers in the area i believe you are in...i would hit the trails to de-brief yourself from that mojo. i know, i know...you are saying "but i live in sofla...there are no mountains here! and besides...the 'canes have blown everything away!!!"
OK...i have vowed to myself to be a more positive person so i am done florida bashing and if you already know about the following club then disregard otherwise...good people!
www.clubmud.com
they have worked with some neighboring clubs and have made the trails better than ever...i hear Amelia is coming along nice and Oleta is better than before...and now (it is a drive for you) Markham is open!!!! the club has monthly group rides and "feminine flow" rides for the female enthusiast...i did not ride with them too much but know of a few people and they seem like a great bunch to hook up with...very patient and educational! in fact, a couple of clubmudders are now on the "subaru IMBA" team!!!
Cruz on over to their forum and lurk a bit...hopefully you will find something to cheer you up and keep you in your saddle![]()
pedal on....
***edit...they go on some neat road trips too!!! to central florida and more...in fact NON-club group (just people who met thru the club i assume) is going to NC for a weekend mtbike trip (by bus) always a good placr for riding!!!!! ***i course i am bias now cause i call it home![]()
