The Pedalshift Project 154: Cross-Florida Bike Tour, Part 2

Day 2 of the Cross-Florida bike tour began in Lakeland, Florida with a serene morning palling around with exotic birds. With 51 miles of riding ahead of me, I got an early start knowing there was a small stretch of questionable riding towards the end in Kissimmee.
