FSC Spring Meeting Off-Road Cycling Event

FLORIDA SKI COUNCIL

OFF-ROAD CYCLING EVENT

Friday June 9th

9 am to 3 pm (estimated return time)

Event Leader:  Toufic Moumne (813-545-3369)

INTERMEDIATE LEVEL OFF-ROAD RIDING SKILLS REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE.

REGISTRATIONS IS NOW CLOSED.

This is a great opportunity to see some Florida terrain not visible during your drive on the interstate! Our goal is to HAVE FUN! 

We will be biking at the Santos Trailhead (formerly known as the Cross Florida Barge Canal Trail), located in Belleview, Florida. Santos Park is a biking park like no other. The single and double tracks are divided into three difficulty levels:

1. Yellow is the easiest.
2. Blue is intermediate.
3. Red is the most difficult.

Does that sound familiar to you skiers/riders? 

The park has many rated loops with names, just like any slope in a ski resort. There are many areas with changes in elevation throughout the park. We could call them "Florida Mountains".

We will leave Friday morning. The bike shop will be open at 9 am to rent the bikes. There will be a cost for bicycle rental (see details below). Depending on the number of interested persons, you may be asked to provide your own car to the route start, so please be sure to indicate in the event registration if you are willing to drive in case we need you. We will be leaving from Mission Inn on Friday morning.
