Florida bike trip plan question for the folks from Florida
Go to Forum
BobK from McLean Va on 6/24/2021 10:24:31 AM:
Hello, I see there are some folks from Florida here on the forum and just wondering what you think is the best time to plan a Florida bike trip to friends and relatives? Here's the plan so far:
Take the Amtrak in DC to the Tampa station and ride to Wesley Chapel to visit friends. Then take 54 to Odessa and take the Suncoast trail to Brooksville and get on the Withlacoochee State trail to Inverness and then take 44 to the Villages to visit relatives. Still planning on how to get from the Villages to the Orlando Amtrak station, but looks like 441 might be bike friendly and fairly scenic!
So just wondering what you think might be the best time to start this trip and or if you have any other suggestions or recommendations for a fun bike trip in Florida? And have fun on your bike ride up here!

BobK,
If riding in heat doesn't bother you, then anytime is great for Florida biking. But if you're like a lot of us, it is HOT here for at least 6 months of the year. Putting in lots of miles, you will need lots of water, sunscreen, and favorable riding apparel. The most enjoyable times for riding and visiting with a smile on your face would be the fall and winter months.
