The Saddle Tramps will ride Sunday, August 21st, from Micanopy on a route of about 35 miles.  We will park in a new area, across from the Tuscawilla Preserve at the parking lot for the Interpretive Center. 

To reach our new parking area, drive to the end of Cholokka Blvd., past the shops of downtown Micanopy, past the trees where we normally park, and at the point where the road appears to end, go left down the street about one-half (½) mile.  Look for the parking area on the left hand side of the street. 

This can also be reached off of Hwy 441 by driving past the turn-offs into downtown Micanopy and going to the first right turn past the turnoff/sign indicating C.R. 346.  Proceed about ½ mile up this road and parking will be on your right.  (Sunday in Micanopy is the BIG day for merchants and they prefer we don't take up their parking spots.)

Meet there at 7:30 a.m. for a 7:45 a.m. departure.     

We'll travel first to Boardman and Orange Lake, then through McIntosh going west on 320 to Flemington, where there are bathrooms and a nearby small convenience store.  From there we'll head to the "Zebra" Road, east on 320 and north back to Micanopy on 329/234 where there is an ice cream shop for those needing nourishment prior to heading back to the parking lot.
