FYI: On Friday, March 13 a group of bents (including CRABS) will ride in Lake Louisa State Park near Clermont (south of Clermont and north of route 192) on Route 27. Come join the ride. Watch for the entrance sign for the park heading north and south on Route 27.

Lake Louisa State Park has a loop of approximately 12 miles on well paved road with little traffic. There are a few hills but nothing that will cause any problems for anyone. It's a fun and safe place to ride. Pedaling will begin at 10:00. Riders can ride the loop or portions of it as often as they wish. There is a nice pavilion where the ride begins should you wish to bring a picnic lunch. If the riders would rather eat together after the ride, there are numerous restaurants on Route 27.

There is a $4.00 per vehicle entrance fee for the park. After entering the main gate, go 1.5 miles to the parking area on the left where the ride will begin. Use this link to learn about the park. http://tinyurl.com/9q49c

I sure wish I could. I really like that area.

Yea, that's a beautiful area. Just to let you know if you ever want to ride that area and your looking for a place to stay I have a home that's five miles from Sugerloaf. I lived there for eleven years and rode that whole area. It's the best riding in Florida.

Yea it's a good one. I've never done it on the Strada but I've done it on the GTT and the Catrike.

Sounds good. Maybe we (and anyone else on the list that's going to be there) could meet up at the "Coochie Invasion" (I just love that name )

Admin,

I'm in dire need of some hill training. I've done Sugarloaf and surrounding area once and it KICKED my BUTT! If you know of any good routes to start building, let me know.

Thanks!
