Unofficial Full 77 Mile Pinellas Trail Loop (2023)

On April 25, 2023 I Rode my Bike 77 Miles on the Unofficial Full Pinellas Trail Loop. My route is close to being what they have in the plans.

I start off with the weather and wind being Great but, by the end the wind picks up and crushes me.

Can't believe I just watched your all loop ride video. I've done most of it on my Coast to Coast trail ride started from Tampa. Good ride you should post videos more often. Just noticed that I wasn't even subscribed anymore but I'm now. 👍 P.S. that girl was sun bathing naked... maybe. That computer info girl had really annoying voice it would drive me crazy 😅
