      Heading to the Tampa area after work today, to Alafia River State park. Staying with a friend, that also rides, and that lives nearby.

        Just started a new thread before I saw this one.  Good question for Florida riders

        I currently live in south jersey. mostly flat with some nice roller coaster areas if you know where to find them. My wife and I will be moving to the Clermont/Winter garden area in just over a year. I have been in that area a few times and can see the nice rolling hills. I was wondering if there are and mtb spots around there. I have heard all about Alafia and Balm Boyette. Will definitely make numerous trips to the Lithia area.  I have also heard of some little known spots around Croom/Withlacoochee which I will explore. Just wondering if there are any more local spots closer to my “home”.

      Back at work today.. Road about 15 miles of easy, 10 of intermediate and 5 advanced over the weekend. Giant, Scott, Niner, Specialized, Trek and Cannondale and a couple of lesser brands did demos. didn’t bother to demo any this time, but was tempted to try the new Giant Reign SX.. Specialized and Trek had pedal assist bikes to demo.

      I did a long post on the other thread, but didn’t mention, Croom is more sandy and flat, as is San Felesco. I don’t ride them, but good if you are trying to work on endurance. Swamp mountain bike club (Tampa area) does this crazy 35/50 off road challenge https://www.swampclub.org/croom-35-50.php
