We’ll take a slow roll through this peaceful green space with winding paths, open lawns, and native plants.

We’ll pause at one of Winter Park’s most popular bakeries. You’ll have time to grab a coffee or pastry if you’d like—purchases are optional and not included.

Pedal through more tree-lined streets as we make our way toward one of Orlando’s most creative and community-focused districts.

Explore this indoor market filled with small local vendors, plants, handmade goods, and food. Feel free to browse or grab a snack—up to you.

We’ll continue through city streets into one of Orlando’s most eclectic neighborhoods, known for its murals and mix of local spots.

Take time to browse a unique indie bookstore, or if you’re hungry, there’s a popular pizza slice spot just around the corner.

We’ll hop onto a protected bike path and ride the final stretch back through town, with a few mural stops along the way. After returning our bikes, we’ll head to a nearby cafe for a post-ride drink and talk about what else to explore while you’re in town.
