Description: Dirt

 

Some might say that Croom mountain bike trails are among the most challenging in FL: perfect mix of exciting technical sections, endurance, long climbs, fast descents. Come and conquer one of the most extensive and beautiful mtb trail systems in the SE USA in the premier annual SAG supported SWAMP MTB CroomFest 35/50 event! This is not a race, but if you're inclined, you can push your limits to see how quickly you can reach the Celebration Station at the finish line. There are bailout options along the way if you want to customize your ride.

 

Description: Pavement

 

Do you prefer skinny tires and pavement? Bike Florida, in conjunction with CroomFest, is hosting a pavement ride with you in mind. This 20 | 35 | 50-mile event (out and back with your choice of mileage) will be held on the beautiful Withlacoochee Trail, beginning at Silver Lake and heading up to Inverness. The event will include halfway point rest stops for all rides and will be guided by Bike Florida tour guides. Ride with GPS links will be provided, and guide arrows will mark the route for intersections or turns that may not be intuitive.
