Got up nice and early today and managed to get out early enough for a nice ride before the heat kicked in.
Did 6.49 miles. Went all the way down to the beach and decided that i'm going to hit the yellow and red trail at the top of the road and add some more in. Got me an extra mile and a half. I could have added more if I went to the right instead of the left but you can't ride the yellow loop on the right side. It's all swamp and boardwalk and it's narrow - 24" narrow. So, the shorter route I was able to ride 90% of instead of the other way around.
Tight trails!

Got me a neat little gadget on the phone too - tells me all kinds of cool things I did on the bike. Somehow it didn't feel like I stopped for that much time though. Honestly, I think I stopped way less.
Stopped for:
Cut two long bits of greenbriar off the trail (less than a min)
Stopped for five minutes at the end by the bay (the water is WARM)
Stopped for one minute when I took a wrong turn and hit a dead end. (Needed a drink)
Stopped to call Matt to ask him if I actually took the right path. (3 minute conversation)
I'm going to carefully time stops on a test run to check for accuracy.
