GCCMail: National Trails Day Ride Saturday 6 June - Nature Coast Trail George Edwards 31 May 2009 19:35 EDT

Dear Friends:

In honor of National Trails Day, the EZ Riders will join the Office of
Greenways and Trails for their ride this Saturday, 6 June, on the Nature
Coast Trail.  The ride is scheduled to start at 9:00 AM, so we might as
well use that time to be sociable.  There is no mass start, no support
(probably some refreshments at the Depot in Trenton), and no fixed route
other than the Trail  Just a pleasant, easy ride on a nice flat trail.
If the crowd is too big at the start, we can wait for them to thin out
before we start.  Why invite hassle?

The ride starts from the Old Train Depot on North Main Street in
Trenton.  To reach the trailhead, go West on Newberry Road (SR 26)
through Newberry, and turn Right at the (only) traffic light in
Trenton.  The Depot will be on your Left in a couple of blocks.  Takes
about 35 minutes from our house near I-75.

We will doubtless go at least to the Suwanee River to see if the
sturgeon are jumping, and perhaps make a side trip to Fanning Springs to
see if the Floridan Aquifer is still operating properly.

Lunch after at the Quilt Shoppe, or where ever.  Bring sunscreen, water,
bug juice, what ever.  Suitable for beginners and children.  We leave no
one behind.

Call with question - me at 333.3184, or Trail Manager Kirk Marhefka
352.535.5181.

Cheers,

George
