Bike Florida
Just got back from a week in southwest Florida. Ft Myers, Cape Coral, Naples and Sanibel. Beautiful places and beautiful weather but TRAFFIC! WHEW!!! I know it's high season but! Outside of Sanibel Island, which looks to be totally bicycle friendly, there didn't seem to be many places to ride without putting yourself at serious risk. The combo of high traffic and roads without shoulders doesn't make biking in this area of Florida look too inviting. I live in the most densely populated state in the country, New Jersey, but can safely ride almost anywhere in the state. How about Florida, is it as bad as it looks? Any areas of Florida where you can ride without undue risk? Any other areas as bike friendly as Sanibel Island?
