A friend we knew from Indiana, Erik, was in the area and wanted to meet up with us, so we decided on a bike ride in Naples, Florida, starting at Baker Park.

At just over 11 miles, it wasn't one of our longer rides, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. Plus, it was good to catch up with Erik. Here is the Relive video for the ride that day, showing our route and additional photos:
