Today, on January 16th, we drove down Heckscher drive, close to the entrance to Hugeunot Park and from there we rode our tandem to Amelia Island. We stopped underway to have a wonderful sandwich at the Falcon's Nest at the Amelia Island Plantation resort.
We took the Amelia Island Parkway and then rode along the beach on A1A, which was quite nice. We saw some marina's at the north end of our ride, right near Fort Clinch State Park. On the way back we rode through Fernandina Beach and past the airport.
The temperature varied a bit as the sun came and went; it was probably in the 50's most of the time. It probably helped that we did this on a cold winter day, since there wasn't much traffic.
All in all it was a nice ride, about 52 miles total. If we'd gone straight back and forth, we would have had a shorter ride.
