The scheduled Hokey Pokey ride for this Saturday will be
changed. The bridge over Olustee Creek on CR 245 began
reconstruction this past Monday. Thank you to GCC member
Royce for information about the bridge. Unforunately, this is a vital
link for our ride.
Instead, let's meet at Oleno State Park for a ride on the paved trail
that goes to Ft. White (and beyond). Let's meet at 8:45 for a 9:00
a.m. ride start on Saturday, Sept 18. I will chaperone a ride to Ft.
White and back , about 18 miles.
Please RSVP to chanbike@xxxxxxx if you intend to come
on this ride, so I will know if there is any interest.
The Oleno Paved bike trail goes west to Ft. White and continues to the
south entrance of the Itchetucknee and beyond to the town of Branford, at
total of 27 miles.
Everyone is welcome is come on this ride (of course, you must wear a
bike helmet). Don't worry about being slow, no one is slower than me
and we never leave anyone behind.
The ride will be chaperoned by the ride leader who will ride at the
back of the group to make sure no one gets lost. The ride leader is
also a bicycle mechanic who can help fix flat tires and help with any other
mechanical problems.
Directions to Oleno Trail: Go north on US
441, through Alachua and High Springs. Continue on US 441, Oleno is
about 8 miles north of High Springs. The entrance to Oleno will
branch off to the right off of US 441. The Trail begins right at the
big sign at the entrance to Oleno, park there on the grass.

have questions, please E-mail me.
