    Jacksonville, FL to St. Augustine, FL

    It looks like there is a direct route out of the Hanna Park campground to the quiet coastal street that would take us south, but it’s solidly blocked by a fence (the heatmaps almost fool you until you zoom in and see that the bright line of cyclist traffic has a tiny gap). From the…
