    February's finds--So Far-- Cold and windy weekends

    Its been pretty cold and windy the past few weekends, even for Florida. It felt as if we were getting sand blasted today on the beach. Winds gusting as much as 30 mph today. I wish I had brought along the camera, the sand drifts were 2-3 feet in some spots. Nice low tide, just too choppy to do...

    Chilly day for Florida, Temps in the low 50's today dropping to mid/low 30's tonight. The beach was practically empty, just a few die-hard northeners still out in shorts. Spoke to some from Wisconsin, they just left temps in the teens, so they were warm. Patty scored a nice 14kt gold heart...

    Looking for ideas to change the handle on the Quattro

    from the "s" to more a straight handle. Something more comfortable for the wrist. Problem is-regular bike handles wont clamp to the squared design of the Quattro.
