Jungle Biking

Today, we rode at Alafia Park, about 40 miles from Sarasota.  These trails have been adopted by SWAMP, the local mountain biking club, and they've done a great job of building trails here.  Lots of roots, very tight, technical trails, some with descents that are silly steep.







One point of interest is that these are biking only trails.  This is a complete change from trails on the West Coast, many of which started as hiking trails and where bikes are tenuously tolerated.
