Cruising The Beach

While in Key West, I got the chance to ride down one of the most famous streets in the Florida Keys — Duval Street. Instead of scanning for tree roots and rocks like I usually do on the trails, this time I had to stay hyper-focused on traffic, cars turning, pedestrians, and sudden stops. My ADHD focused in helping me constantly scan for moving cars, predict turns, and react quickly to keep myself safe in the busy street environment. It was a totally different kind of riding — exciting, fast-paced, and a fresh challenge for my brain.
