Review Quotes

"Good for those who are far from home and appreciate having few surprises on a grueling bike ride into the backcountry, even on a paved pathway."--Outdoor Adventure Magazine


"Jammed with the info cyclists venturing into the unknown crave. There are simple maps that point out where to park, restrooms, water, crossroads, and 'watch out' places where extra caution is required along the routes."--Gainesville Sun


"Kunerth took about a year to ride the trails in the book. Sometimes, it was a matter of day trips from Orlando. Other times, he and his wife took long weekends to the Panhandle or South Florida to ride four or five trails."--Jacksonville Times-Union


"Readers are advised where to find trendy shopping on Miami's M-Path; where to find a bike rack at the Flagler mansion in Palm Beach (just outside the front gate), and which trail goes by the second largest nudist colony in Florida."--Florida Bicycle Messenger


"Whether on bike, foot, in-line skate, or even horse, this trail book can help you find the paths and know what to expect when you get there, and what you might find along the way."--Tallahassee Democrat
