Ozello road will get you in the Gulf if you are not careful.

We know the risk of riding a motorcycle and accept such risk openly and happily. Hell, we ride in Florida.

Ain't it the truth. They will run slap over you. It's like driving on a college campus with the kids stepping right out in front of you. Gotta keep on your toes in the The Villages.

Good riding all around Sleepy Hollow in Floral City. Not just the road it's on either. Whole area has some great rides.

We do have some guys in the 305, a bunch more (including me) in the 954. Most of the rides that you see posted in the FLCrew section will be Way North of us, but that IS where the best riding IS... WAY NORTH of US.
Cafe 27 is one of the south's meet up spots (Just N of Griffin on US27). If you've never been there, take a ride, check it out. Lots of bikes there every Sunday.
I grew up in the 305, Tamiami Trail was the spot. It's still pretty cool...
A perfect plug for one of my videos!

look at all those twisties!

I mean the first turn was almost a 20 degree left hander, then just a few miles down the road that 15 degree right hander was awesome!

I bet that if that video continues, there are at least 3 more turns over the next 50 miles
