Bicycles

I just stopped in at Blue Run Bicycles in the same shopping center as Sweetbay Supermarket in Dunnellon. Grant W Chance (probably the parents risisted the temptation to make his middle name Anthony or Adam or something similar) sells and rents bicycles and helmets-$20-$30 a day and $1 for the helmet. Business is picking up these days as the temps are getting more reasonable for riding.

There is a very active rails to trails program around here. One trail that starts in Citrus Springs goes all the way to Tampa, and the Suwanee trail starts a short drive north of here. This is a good way to see some of Florida where nature still rules.

The trails are also jogger and walker and online skater friendly.

We will see some of the Withlachoochee trail on the drive from the Tampa airport.

Happy Trails to you,
Till we meet again.
