I've been talking to a couple guys around here who have been to Central Florida riding. They all say it's an awesome place to ride as long as you take the secondary roads. They say the drivers on the main highways are crazy.

I may have to check out Soloman's Castle next time I go to visit some Family down that way. Thanks.

Ocala National Forest. Goethe State Forest. West of Ocala that we call Horse Country. Ozello Trail outside Crystal River.

Leesburg Bikefest in April. Sleepy Hollow outside Floral City.
A ride to Ocala is definately on the list. I rode the Ozello Trail in a cage. I'm for sure gonna take a ride there on the bike.
I'm gonna go to Sleepy Hollow and from what I understand there are several other Biker Friendly bars around that area?
Anybody been to http://highoctanesaloon.com/ in Homosassa? It's within sight of Crystal River Harley Davidson.

Always lots of stuff going on at High Octane. Bands and events. Its a big steel Building with a huge ceiling fan made by a company called Big *** Fans that is about 16 feet wide. It always feels great in there no matter how hot it is outside. You are going to be right in the middle of the best riding in Florida. No matter which way you go from Citrus the riding is good. As far as the main highway thing, its all relative. The only Main highway in that area is 19 and it is nearly abandoned in that area. No traffic at all. I am just a little south of that area off of 19 so drop a line and we will show you the best rides.

Very informative Dave. Thanks for the post. Sounds like we've picked the right place to winter.
