"What a beautiful day for a bike ride!" were the first words out of my mouth this morning. I rustled Francis so we could get an early start and after a brief wrestling match while attaching a bike rack to the back of our car, we were off for the boardwalk.
Our starting point was Avon By The Sea, and from there we headed north, all the way past Bradley Beach, Ocean Grove, Asbury Park, Loch Arbour, Allenhurst, and into Deal. We toured sideroads with some amazing looking houses, even if we didn't feel entirely welcome, and stopped outside the Asbury Convention Hall for sandwiches. We headed back to Avon but didn't feel like stopping, so we went south. Thru Belmar, Lake Como and into Spring Lake Heights. Now we were starting to feel it. By the time we got back to the car again we had rode about 16 miles. Not bad for a beautiful day.
What does Fran have to say about today's adventure?...
"My butt hurts"
Also, since we both got extreme sunburns and needed mass quantities of aloe she adds...
"I'm having an aloe-body experience"
That's a bit of a stretch hun, but I'll give it to you.
