Bicycling, East Central Regional Rail Trail, Osteen Trailhead to Maytown

Details

Being that this is early in the college football season, I thought it would be good to stretch our legs prior to pulling up a chair in front of the television.
The plan is to do a leisurely bike ride on the East Central Regional Rail Trail. We will meet and unload our bikes at the Osteen Trailhead on the east side of the bridge over Route 415 at 9:00 AM, look for my “bright red” Ford F-150 Truck. We will then proceed to cycle east past the Guise Road TH (2.7 miles), Gobblers Lodge TH (6.2 miles, porta-john), Maytown Intersection (12.7 miles) to the Maytown Spur Road TH (13.1 miles, porta-john) and Vergie’s Pit Stop. We will then turn around and backtrack to the intersection where we will ride to the old Maytown ruins. The we will return the way we came back to the Osteen TH. The total distance is around 26 miles. We will then load up our bikes and drive down to the Osteen Diner for a well- earned lunch.
We will be wearing bike helmets on this activity, so please ensure that you have one. Please make sure that your bicycle is in good operating order prior to the outing. This is a bicycling trip, pedal power, so our pace will be set by human power versus high speed electric vehicles.
It will be September in Florida, so it will be hot! Bring plenty of water and sun screen, as well as snacks.
