One of the more
popular locations for bicycling is Miami-Dade
County, mainly for its scenery and level landscape.
Several bike shops, as well as the Miami-Dade County
Bicycle Coordinator (305/ 375-1647) offer plenty of
information about biking in this area. Moreover,
they usually provide a color-coded map of the
area’s best biking routes, parks and more, making
for an easy day of two-wheeling.
A casual bike ride
excursion can be had with Adventura Riders
(305/ 937-4463), offering customers a different
20-mile-or-so route each week. Information on group
rides can be obtained through Everglades Bicycle
Club (305/ 598-3998). If you’re looking to
bike through Key Biscayne, pick up maps and info at Mangrove
Cycles (305/ 361-5555). Other great bicycling
locations include, Bill Braggs Cape Florida State
Recreation Area on Key Biscayne Island; Matheson
Hammock Park in Coral Gables (305/ 665-5475);
and for experienced rough-terrain bikers, visit Oleta
River State Recreation Area in North Miami (305/
