Any Floridians out there that can suggest routes 20-110 miles in the Sannabell(don't know how to spell it) area of Florida? I'll be there Jan 20-28 and would also enjoy any company I might be able to get. I rode 6,000+ miles in 89 and have managed to get out on the rode atleast once a week (except for one week in December) since last March. Considering the weather we've had here in the northeast that's not bad! (Heah Ed... seems as though you wimped out and headed south for better riding conditions. There is a harde core of about 3-4 of us up here who still head out in the snow and ice for a lunch time cruz/slide) Danielle

I spent two weeks in the Fort Myers Beach area at the beginning of December and wish I was still there. I rented a road bike while I was there and rode out to Sanibel. Their is a tool bridge ($3.00) to get on the island, however no bikes are allowed. They suggested that I hitch a ride over with someone who has a pickup truck. I tried this for a while with no luck. The next day my wife drove me over. I had no problem hitching a ride back. Once on the island their are bike paths throughout the island. This is the "only" way to see the island. Off of Sanibel is another bike path called Summerlin. I believe out and back is about 20 miles. South of Fort Myers is another bike path in Bonita Springs. If you go to Fort Myers Beach their is a bike shop called 'Beach cycle and repair' ask and they will give you a newsletter with time, date and location of some group rides in the area. Doug | |||||
