Withlacoochee State Trail

In three sections we completed this long trail, outstanding all through with side trips on connecting trails made for some longer rides. Many parts are tree shaded.

Lake Okeechobee Scenic Trail (LOST)

3 treks so far

May, 2023 by jrwemmons

The first time we rode the trail we started at Torrey Island campground & headed south for about 10 miles .. it is paved with several gates to go around. The second time we started at Canal Point & went north . The trail is gravel & some parts are very tough. I wouldn’t do it again . We went about 10 miles to Port Mayaca damn. The trail ended & we could see it on the other side of the damn but seemed the only way to get there was to go out onto the highway. We opted not to & turned back. The third time we started at the Port Mayaca trailhead & headed north for 13 miles . All paved & a very nice ride . There are no w port Mayac

Pinellas Loop Trail

There’s always one…

May, 2023 by 4s2k5kn4c8

To the reviewer moaning about e-bikes you should grow up, stop spreading ridiculous ideas about them and get over yourself. E-bikes are a 40 billion dollar industry which is projected to be a near 120 billion industry by 2030. Florida classifies e-bikes exactly as any other bicycle. They’re not electric “motorcycles”. I find that “regular” cyclists seem to be salty for the sheer fact that there’s now just more bikes on the roads and paved trails which because of their self entitlement they believe are theirs alone. Get a grip, get a life and most importantly make love to the idea of e-bikes because you’re only going to see more of them. I’ve seen people, couples and even families put enjoying trails and riding exactly the same as other cyclists. Go out and enjoy the Pinellas Trail. It’s fun and gets you out of the house.

Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail

Some Sections are Good Short Rides

May, 2023 by jallen1804

We rode some sections but avoided the parts of the trail that did not seem safe. Parts of the trail are littered. The trail surface in some parts is in bad shape. But... riding over the water was pretty awesome.

Archer Braid Trail

Decent Trail-Not Much Scenery

May, 2023 by jallen1804

The asphalt surface is in good condition. Most of the trail runs along a highway. The scenery is nothing to get excited about.

Gainesville-Hawthorne State Park Trail

Nice Ride

May, 2023 by jallen1804

Most of the trail is shady. The asphalt surface is in pretty good shape. We saw a deer on our ride.

Rich King Memorial Greenway

Shark Valley Tram Road

Nature ride

May, 2023 by eguydjr

Arrow straight for 7 miles along a canal, watch for the wild life. Route back has curves but nothing crazy. Great ride, but bring water, No shade .

Withlacoochee State Trail

Beautiful route

May, 2023 by froggo55

The scenery is really good. We completed the ride just before noon and the trail was still very shaded. The pavement is very smooth, making for a very pleasant bike ride.

Palatka-to-Lake Butler State Trail

Nice long flat ride

May, 2023 by pitsplace

We have rode this a couple times in the last couple months. We parked at north end point of main trail where future trail will cross HWY 100 north of Keystone. It’s not really a parking area but there is room for about 6 cars and I saw other people parking there so we did too. As other people have said it is within 20-30 yards at times of HWY100 but it ducks in and out of the woods and there is plenty of trail that isn’t close to the highway. We rode out 22 miles to south of the State Forest north of Palatka and then headed back. There is a little

Four Freedoms Trail

Has potential

May, 2023 by pitsplace

I’m going to echo some of the other reviews. It has potential but it needs some maintenance. There are a lot areas where roots have heaved up the asphalt bad and there not marked. It needs to be cleared of limbs and twigs and it isn’t marked real clearly at places as to which way you should go makes it a one and done for us. Trails like Gainesville, Jacksonville or West Orange are on a completely different level. Rode May10, 2023.

Jacksonville-Baldwin Rail-Trail

Great Trail

May, 2023 by eguydjr

Great trail, I only planned on riding 1/2 but the wife got ahead of me & we went all the way. Made the turn & it started the heaviest rain I've ever ridden in. we stopped at stations & under passes then stood in the rain as we waited for the train to pass. Finished up after the rain quit for a great ride.
