What we’re about
We are a small cycling group which our goal is to exercise as we socially with the priority of riding as safely as we can. We are riding an average of 15-20 miles per event at about 10-15 miles/hour.
All bikes are welcome. The idea is to ride locally and experience out of town trails around the State of Florida.
We are collecting a yearly membership of 10.00 exclusively to attempt to cover the yearly fees for the site. If we surpass the amount collected in any calendar year, we will apply that difference to the following calendar year. If we accumulate two years of membership in our funds then the membership fee will be decreased or eliminate for the following calendar year. Our fees are 179.00 every six months. Our next membership are due on on January 2025.

The General James A. Van Fleet State Trail is committed to providing a variety of accessible amenities to all visitors. Our amenities include:
- 29.2 miles of paved surface trail
- Pavilions at each of the four trail heads
The trail has a paved surface ideal for bicycling. It traverses through mostly natural areas, so there is ample opportunity to enjoy a brisk pace or go slow and view the wildlife.
- Be sure to bring plenty of drinking water. The only potable water sources are at the Polk City, Green Pond and Mable trailheads.
- Helmets are recommended for all cyclists. Florida law requires helmets for cyclists age 16 and younger.
- Bring sunscreen and bug spray.
- Obey all traffic laws.
- When bicycling on a trail or dirt road shared with hikers or equestrians, be respectful of others. Learn more about our state park rules and trail etiquette.
- Bicycles, including electric bicycles, may be used on trails designated for bicycle use with the park system, consistent with Section 316.20655, Florida Statutes.
- All bicycles should operate in a safe manner.
