January 19, 20 & 21, 2010,
Arrived in Florida yesterday. Tuesday was travel day. Rene and I had a peaceful ride to Florida. Made it to Daytona Beach from NJ. Got up in the morning on Wednesday and and finished the ride to my folks home. Weather is beautiful. Got a short ride in the afternoon. Felt good to ride easy after the long ride in the car.
Today I had planned to go for a 3 hour ride. While pumping my tires, one of the tubes blew. I only had one spare left. Changed the tire and decided not to go to far with no spare. Also the wind was really blowing. Had a good ride that I had to work. After the ride I went and bot 3 tubes so I will be prepared if a get another flat. Looking forward to several long rides in the next days.

About Me
- Phil Benson
- I am 64 years old and have been a visionary my whole life. I saw Frank Shorter win the Olympics in 1972, and I said I want to run a marathon. Since then I have run 50. I watched the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii on TV and I said I want to do that. 3 years later I finished the Iron man in Hawaii. I was 45 at the time. I watched all of the Tour de France this year,2009,and I said I want to do that. Unable to compete in the Tour, I will do the same miles they do on the same days in July. Can I do it? The saying goes "Man can achieve what the mind can conceive".
