Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Going to Orlando FL on monday...

going there for a trade show event call Retail Vision. So, just wondering if there are any bike shops near 1 Grand Cypress Blvd in Orlando, FL ? cuz i might try to find some time and sneak on over to those shops if possible.

i've been eyeing some steel + carbon combo type of bikes.. so hopefully there will be a shop nearby with killer deals so i can bring one back to cali.

let me know if there are any around that are you know of.

Thanks~

Rui

Last few times I've worked in Orlando, it didn't seem especially bike-friendly..

I was usually trapped at the hotels most of the time, though. Maybe there's more going on towards the center of the city. (Is there a center of the city? It seemed pretty stripmally..)

oh.. well, this will be the first time for me to actually stay in orlando. the past couple times, i was just in the airport passing through on my way to brazil. but other than that.. this will be the first.

btw, since i'll be there till friday.. hopefully there will be some bike friendly shop around.... keeping my fingers crossed.
