Baldwin Ride Experience
First Coast Trikkers

We had 9 show up to start this ride and later 2 more joined, total 11 participated. Cool fall day and on the way back the nor'easter was blowing. We stopped by Everybody's Restaurant in Baldwin for lunch. It is a 1 mile detour, but well worth it. We had a father son -- Nathan and Billy, and a mother and daugher -- Dana and Blake and 2 husband wife  -- (Tim and Debbie) and (Bill and Carol). What good family fun together! Mark did the trail one -way -- 15.5 miles personal record for him. Monica broke her own record by completing the whole trail --31.5 miles total ! We are sure Billy broke the record for an 11 year old -- He did 35miles !

Florida Fun Trikke Ride Oct 5 Sun 2008

- 3rd Annual Florida Trikke Fun Ride Inverness , Florida (map)
This years Florida Trikke Fun Ride will be held in conjunction with the 14th Annual Rails to Trails of the Withlacoochie Bike Ride. Last year there were over 1600 registered cyclists and over 40 Trikke enthusiast in the event. The event organizers are expecting this year to far exceed those numbers. The ride is a "no-mass start" meaning that you can start anytime between 7am and 9am. There's no minimum distance required to ride but they are registering cyclist for a 100 mile ride with special recognition for their accomplishment. For our Trikke riders we are planning on a 15 mile ride but no minimum distance is required. We were fortunate to have Gildo Beleski (Sr. Engineer/Trikke Inventor) and Claudio Pagan (Trikke Representative) to join us. It looks very good that they will again be joining us this year. However, it's not 100% sure due to Gildo's schedule. At last years event Gildo did state that our Trikke Fun Ride was probably the best Trikke event that he's ever attended and was honored by the camaraderie involving such avid Trikke enthusiasts. Just like last year we will plan a social/dinner at one of the local resteraunts where we can all acquaint and re-acquaint. This will also give you an opportunity to initially meet Gildo and Claudio.

Last year  a 10 year old (Dustin Edwards -Tampa Trikker) rode 40 miles on a T78-Air. And he made his parents ride with him. It was their first time to complete such a long distance on the Trikke. We also had Al Brown (83 years young) who rode an astonishing 30 miles. Hats off to these two remarkable young men! What an accomplishment and inspiration!

Last year we had 5 First Coast Trikkers participate. It is about a 3 hour drive to Inverness , Florida (map) Start making your plans now  The little motels fill up fast.
 
This is a Trikke Tampa event and Andy and Jana have always participated in our events here in Jacksonville -- The Trikke Century Ride and the Opening of the Beaches. I hope we can show them even more support this year !

Rails to Trails

Bike Ride on the

Withlacoochie State

Trail

Sunday, October 1, 2006


Well we had 29 Trikkers for this great ride. 6 were First Coast Trikkers. Thanks to Andy -- Trikke Tampa and his wonderful wife Jana for all the work in setting up the display. We certainly showed people trikkes ! Many people did test rides --- even these hard core bikers. It was a a great time and one we hope to make an annual event. Some broke their personal records -- doing 50 - 60 miles. I think I even broke my own record!!  I only rode about 6 miles. Most of my time was doing demos for people and helping people try out the fitness machine !
