On Saturday May 26, Strays will
ride about 26 miles on the Nature Coast Trail , with an
extra option to ride as much as 62 miles.........
Arrive at the trail parking lot in Fanning
Springs (next to Huckleberrys BarBQ)
at about 8:45 am to depart at 9 am.
Speed 2.5 - 46 mph, depending on terrain.
Average speed has typically been 12 -
14 mph in recent times. The Nature Coast is entirely flat so
speeds may be to the high side.
Post ride the hungry will head to Hart Springs
Park to join other GCC members in the
Sonny's feast. Be sure and notify Chandler of your desire
for meat. Bring your lawn chair and snorkel gear and your favorite side
dish. And don't forget to bring some money to buy yourself a set of the
beautiful, and practical, GCC Specialized water bottles (these
are the best!). And some money to enter the park.
No pace lines, no racing, no wheel sucking, just a fun social
ride.
Helmets are REQUIRED on all Strays rides,
mirrors recommended, headphones
forbidden.
Safety protocols are always observed
on Strays rides

mile until you see the bike crossing trail sign. Cross the bike trail and
enter the grass parking lot immediately on the right.
