KMKazie: Thu 12/24/2015: Good morning from Georgetown, KY! The first road trip with the newly built Roberta the KMKAZIE III!
©
KMKazie: Visiting a Midas again?!
©
KMKazie: Somebody said it is a good idea to change the oil after the first 1000 mi.
©
KMKazie: Florida, here I come! (And Tennessee and Georgia before that!)
©
KMKazie: Stopped at Bojangles' for a late lunch. A bit of the South.
©
KMKazie: Fri 12/25/2015: Kazie's nest late 2015. Nothing different from the previous versions on the surface.
©
KMKazie: Thank you for opening on Christmas Day, McDonald's. Walmart is closed, by the way.
©
KMKazie: Arrived Foster's Hammock. It's been one of the first trails I ride when I come to Florida.
©
KMKazie: Found a hole in the bladder of my hydration pack. :( MTB'ing always needs improvisation.
©
KMKazie: The trailhead parking lot.
©
KMKazie: I don't think I saw this last year. R.I.P., Rick. And thank you.
©
KMKazie: Lost trail.
©
KMKazie: Chinese food has been my Christmas dinner for long time. They are always open!
©
KMKazie: Sat 12/26/1015: Even a beautiful butterfly can be a victim.
©
KMKazie: Blizzak WS80 on the front after about 1200 mi, 80% of it in 50F and higher.
©
KMKazie: The same tire on the rear under the same conditions. It's obvious the driving tires had much more wear.
©
KMKazie: A larva dying in the toxic(?) water.
©
KMKazie: Beaty Towers at U of Florida looked over from US-441, about which Tom Petty's song caused an urban legend. [<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Girl_%28Tom_Petty_song%29" target="_blank">Wiki</a>]
©
KMKazie: And I wasn't aware of Michigan playing Florida. It seems to be on the New Year's Day.
©
KMKazie: Got a cheap bladder at a Walmart. Hope it works.
©
KMKazie: Rode The Rock for the first time in five years or so. Found a gentle DH course at the end. Whoever maintaining this trail loves the sport. The sign tells it loud.
©
KMKazie: It unlocks when you put your hand inside of the handle. I can do that without reaching for the fob in my hydration pack after a ride! I never thought I'd appreciate that!
©
KMKazie: And fortunately I've arrived at a sports bar before the Indiana bowl game is over. Blue Devils looking like Colts, it confuses me.
©
KMKazie: Brat Burger! It's the best of both worlds! I was also at this restaurant last year after having slept for a whole day at the hotel next door for one of the worst stomachache I've ever had.
©
KMKazie: Surf. Really?
©
KMKazie: Sun 12/27/2015: Riding Santos' Ross Prairie. Flowy and twisty. My favorite in Florida.
©
KMKazie: Are you serious?! A hot shower at the trailhead! Thank you, Florida! I don't have to take a bath in a lake today!
©
KMKazie: Mon 12/28/2015: Arrived at Mount Dora. I think it's a relatively new trail. And it's the first time for me riding. It's 83F now.
©
KMKazie: It was a short flow trail. It felt very man-made.
©
KMKazie: And a squirrel or something bombed on me. It has never happened till now. Or just I never knew?
