I did a lot of the island part of this ride on a beach cruiser while on vacation down here. I modified it a little so I was able to get 25 miles without going off the island.
The riding over by the lighthouse is real nice and mellow with big bike lanes and lots of nice houses and scenery. I'm good with runners using the bike lanes but wish they'd go in the correct direction. Several times I was forced out of the lane by someone coming by the wrong direction.
Parts of the ride are pretty sketchy with no bike lanes and narrow roads where impatient drivers need to wait behind you for a stretch before maneuvering around.
You go by a few cool farms selling bread and tomatoes and a cold water and flower cart.
I enjoyed my modified version of this every morning and got more comfortable with it after a few times. read more
