About this event
Explore the north side of the St John's River with local ride leaders. This ride will start at Burney Park – a beach park in Historic American Beach with ample parking and facilities.
First, we travel down First Coast Highway, passing through Big Talbot and Little Talbot Island State Parks, enjoying scenic water views of Amelia River, Fort George Inlet, along the St. Johns River to Blount Island where the route takes us inland, near preserves and north on US 17/MainStreet. After crossing the river into Nassau County, the route goes on to explore the back roads of Yulee before crossing the bridge onto Amelia Island and back to Burney Park. The route is 66 miles. There are plenty of stops (Circle K’s) along the way for re-grouping, supplies and facilities.
The majority of this ride takes place on roads with wide shoulders/bike lanes or on quiet back roads. There is a rough section on SR-200 before the bridge crossing back onto Amelia Island - caution should be taken. We ride in groups and no rider will be left behind.
If you drive up from Duval or St John's Counties, there are lots of great places for a post-ride lunch on Amelia Island. Also, the start/finish at Burney Park is a beach access with changing area and some showers so you can cool off after the ride with a dip in the ocean.
