Velo et Cafe will meet at the Chevron at 8:00 a,m., and depart at 8:20 a.m., after a brief rider meeting. We ride most of our miles on moderately busy county and state roads with good bike lanes, as well as some low-volume roads with no bike lanes.

We have 3-4 potential convenience store rest stops on this route, as well as a possible stop at the impressive Cellon Oak Tree, (the largest live oak tree in Florida,) where we could do a quick drink stop in the shade at mile 21. We will decide on our stops at the rider meeting. 

At the above link for the route on Ride With GPS, you can print the cue sheet using "PRINT CUE SHEET FROM BROWSER" in the right margin. If you'd like a .GCX or .TCX f ile for a GPS device, use the EXPORT tab in the right margin. You can also view the route on a smartphone if you install the free app. (And you can even get audible  "turn-by-turn" directions with the paid app.) I'll bring some paper maps and cue sheets too.

Coffee at Starbucks after we ride. The Hyppo popsicles at the Chevron are amazingly refreshing after a rode at this time of year, and they have a water bottle filling station and clean bathrooms for us too. (Thank you, Chevron!)  Call or text Kathy at 352-258-3541 with questions about this ride.
