Listen "354: Space Coast Loop - Part 2"
Episode Synopsis
Day 2 of the Space Coast Loop, starts with another early morning, and nearly twice the mileage of the previous day. Riding on the Spring to Spring and East Central Regional Rail Trails promised to be great, along all the Spanish moss and unique wildlife central Florida has to offer. But ah those pesky headwinds coming off the coast I'm trying to reach… will my less-than-robust pre-ride conditioning do me in?
