Rode to Seven Oaks and through the nature trail. It is paved but curvy. I think it was designed for walkers and joggers. There are many bridges and boardwalks which are slippery when wet. It was a nice change but I probably won't do it again.

Planned on a shorter ride but felt good and wind was light so I rode to Zephyrhills. I figured traffic would be lightest today and I wouldn't anger too many drivers because there is no shoulder or bike lanes on Morris Bridge and Chancey. 
Starbucks 
It took three tries to find a drink that wasn't sold out of some syrup. I am not sure why they let you add the syrup when it is out. 
Chestnut Praline Crème and marshmallow bar. 
The ride back was fine. Not much tailwind.

Plans keep changing once I am on the bike, lol. I rode to BBD to Tampa Palms and back to Starbucks at Hunter's Green. 
Once again, the syrups I wanted were OOS but it doesn't tell you until after you customer and go to checkout. Caramel Brûlée Crème. The drink was very good!

Chilly. Glad I wore long sleeves. Starbucks for Steamed Almond Milk wit Caramel Sauce and Chocolate Curls.

I rode SR54 to Fox Ridge and through the development. Then I took Chancey back to MPB and home.

Very late start. Decided a short ride was OK for my last coffeeneuring. 
Rode Mansfield to Chancey through Seven Oaks and back south BBD. 
Overcast and cool. At least it wasn't too windy. 
Starbucks 
Didn't even try for the other syrups. Just ordered a Chestnut Praline Crème. 
Oh wow. I thought I ordered Caramel Brûlée but am glad I got the Chestnut Praline instead. She gave me venti cup so I got a lot more whipped cream 
Yay. 
I rode back SR56 to Mansfield.

Windy AF
It took me 90 minutes to get to Starbucks in Zephyrhills. (15.84 miles) There is construction along US301 and the little should that it there is gone for a future turn lane. It was not fun. 
Vanilla Crème but with Irish Cream instead of vanilla. 
The drink was OK but a little less creamy than I would have liked. 
The ride back was fast. The tailwind was great. I rode SR54 to MPB. There is a narrow shoulder during construction.

Windy. Not as bad as yesterday but it is still too much. Decided to ride a shorter route today. (I have extra days off coming up and will ride more then.)
I went to BBD to SR54. I know why I don't like riding up this way on the MUP, drivers pulling up to BBD do no look my way and block the path. 
Starbucks for Vanilla Crème with Sugar Cookie Syrup and Holiday Sprinkles. 
Took the lid off and could smell the sugar cookie. But the whip was all melted so they didn't add the extra I requested. 
Yes it tastes like a sugar cookie. But I miss the crunch of the cookie. 
I rode SR54 to FoxWood to Chancey to MPB. I wanted to avoid MPB as much as possible. North of SR56, it is busy and in need of replacing. I rode along the MUP but found it was even worse!
Around mile 16, my legs were done. I was glad I didn't do another long route.

Had to wait for the rain to pass. Roads were wet. 
Stopped at Oliver's to have them fix the front gear. I can't shift into the top gear. They adjusted it. It is still difficult but no longer impossible. 
Rode to Tampa Palms. I rode through twice. Angry driver in a yellow keep honked and yelled at me to ride on the sidewalk. Asshole. 
Turned north to find the wind had shifted and was against me. Figures. 
Stopped at Starbucks for Caramel Brûlée Crème. 
Aside from the baristas, I was the only one wearing a mask. Sigh. 
Not sure about the crunchy caramel pieces but the drink is yummy. 
Rode home against the wind.

NW windy. Rode up to SR54 to the outlet mall. The clouds were the perfect wispy clouds I love so much. Traffic wasn't too bad but Starbucks was busy. I ordered a Toasted White Hot Chocolate with coconut milk. No sprinkles. Boo. 
Still pretty tasty. Like a sugar cookie. 
Next time I will try steamed milk with Irish cream sauce. 
The ride back was OK. Not as fast as I would have liked. The shoulder is narrower along SR54.

It was not a good week for riding. I was still riding the 820 which is slow. The cold and the wind made it worse.  I was very happy to get the 1220 back on Friday. I even rode through the last of rain Friday afternoon.

Chilly and windy. 
Rode Mansfield to Chancey to BBD. I rode SR54 to Land o Lakes Starbucks. Last year it was very slow. Today it was ready extra fast despite the line of cars waiting to place their orders. 
So happy to have my 1220. Despite the wind, I had decent speed (for me)
I got Peppermint Hot Chocolate with coconut milk. Yum. I got coconut milk so it won't sit like a rock on the way home. 
Disappointed that they had no Christmas ornaments. (Not sure if they are not going to have them or if they are stuck on a container ship somewhere.)
The ride home was good but I was chilled. Wool is supposed to wick moisture but my arm get sweaty and then cold when the wind blows. 
Only one asshole pulled out and stopped in the bike lane. I was in the top gear then my chain got stuck. I managed to get it loose with my foot while coasting. But then I couldn't get into the top gear again. WTH. Though I didn't need it except for going down the overpass.

Chilly. Windy. Rode through Seven Oaks to SR54 and back south to Starbucks. (I should ride farther but too cool and windy.)
Starbucks is slow
Chestnut Praline Crème. This is really good! 
Rode home the long way but faster because no busy roads to cross.

I am not sure why I am so slow. I just don’t have the drive to pedal any harder. I took the 1220 in for a tuneup on Tuesday. They called on Wednesday telling me I need new front gears and they have to ordered. I rode my 820 and was even slower. Then the weather changed, wind and cool weather that made me very slow. Definitely a slow spoke.

Northwest wind. Rode up BBD to SR54. Slow and drizzly. I wish I had worn long sleeves.
I went to the Starbucks outside of the outlet mall. The mall is a mess with the fall festival. And the Starbucks was not taking order ahead. Damn. I figured out my drink before I got to the cashier.
Grande Vanilla Cream with coconut milk and caramel sauce. Whipped cream? All melted but maybe it was there.
The drink is meh but the skies are clearing up.
I rode west to Cypress Creek the south to CLR. No shoulders on either road but no drivers were aggressive towards me.

A short ride today. I feel bad leaving my dad with his back pain.
NW wind. Rode Mansfield to Chancey to BBD and back through Seven Oaks.
I had to stop to get my dad some non-expired Tylenol. I was going to stop at Walgreens then remembered the Starbucks at Target. This will count for Coffeeneuring!
It was windy and I was slow. It was nice when I turned south and the wind was helping.
I went to Target and got some Tylenol for my dad. Then I got a Tall Pumpkin Creme for me. I got extra whip this time so I had some when I got my drink. It was missing the pumpkin spice topping.
I rode home.

Another slow week and I can’t blame it on weight loss because I only lost 1 pound then gained it back on the weekend. Everything seems like such and effort.

Coffeeneuring started this week. Too soon for seasonal cocoas so I am trying the steamed milks.

NE wind but not up for riding to Zephyrhills. (My thighs are sore from walking up 7 flights of stairs.)
Rode through Seven Oaks to SR54 to Starbucks. Too soon for anything but regular hot cocoa so I ordered a pumpkin cream steamer. OK.
I realized soon after I started again that I should have gotten almond milk. Dairy sits heavy in my stomach. Despite that, the ride back was better, faster. It is always nice to have a tailwind.

Overcast and breezy. (Still not up to ride to Zephyrhills) Rode to SR56 & Morris Bridge. I turned around and rode to Starbucks
Ordered steamed vanilla Creme with caramel sauce and cinnamon dolce sprinkles.
The drink was lacking. Maybe it was the almond milk, not as creamy. I only drank half.
Rode back the "short" way. Shorter distance but I have to cross BBD twice.

Not a very good week. I have decided to go back on my diet. And not eating after 6 pm. That meant my weekday rides were fasting rides and as the week went on, my legs were feeling it and I was slowing down. Saturday was a little better but Sunday was crap.

Rode to SR56 to US301 because there was an east wind. Turned around and the wind changed. Dammit. At least it was too strong but legs were not happy. 
Three trucks with horse trailers were blocking the MUP across from Winding Ridge. Assholes.
