Leisure Bike Ride - Palm Beach (FREE)

Gator Leisure Bike Ride: Lake Trail in Palm Beach

Bike Ride Cancelled Due to COVID-19 Emergency

10 AM Saturday, April 25, 2020       

Lake Trail in Palm Beach is one of the best paved bike trails in South Florida

We don’t know how the millionaires in Palm Beach ever permitted it, but instead of having their magnificent properties extend out to their private docks on the Intracoastal, for six miles, there is a lovely paved bike path that interrupts their backyards.

 

 

The Lake Trail in Palm Beach provides traffic-free bicycling  with postcard-like scenery, a few historic buildings and glimpses into those exclusive backyards and their mansions. Note: This ride will also include some residential street  sections.    
  
Meet at the Royal Poinciana Plaza on Palm Beach at 10 AM.  Go across Royal Poinciana Bridge (North bridge), make first right into the plaza before the traffic light. then left on Sunset Ave. into  the plaza before the traffic light.  Turn right (west) and park near the bridge.  There is a bike store there if you need to rent one (561 659-4583).  Will be riding on the bike path and residential roads.  About 9 miles round trip @ 7-10 mph.  This is a slow ride as there can be  pedestrians and other cyclists on the path.  If you pass someone please give an audible  warning such as "passing on your left".

Bring quarters in case you have to park in a metered area as limited free parking on Sunset.
