It’s Also Florida Bicycle Month
Florida weather has turned pleasant - again! March is a great month to celebrate Florida Bicycle Month. Whether you are a fulltime Florida resident, a snowbird or visiting Florida in March for vacation, in any case, explore routes and trails, or join a cycling club ride.
With Daylight Savings Time starting this weekend it will be lighter in the morning. So, get out there on your road, MTB, gravel, e-bike, or 3-wheeler and enjoy the wind in your face and Florida landscape as you ride.
Ride often. Be safe.
