Bike_Sebring - sometimes called Tour_of_Sebring - over the US-Labour-Day-Holiday-weekend (3-6 September, 2010)...

Here's Mr._Bill (registration number 44 for this ride), in a picture taken by Jim Harris of "
Bike Tour Photo"
- the same guy who was at the Cycle North Carolina ride last year
(2009) and will also be at the Cycle North Carolina ride we'll be at
this year...

Here's
a 'map' (click for larger) of the route-up from Stuart (red-line) - the
Saturday ride - 64.4 miles (green line) the Sunday ride 63.8
miles(white line) and the Monday ride - 56.9 miles (blue-line)...
The map is 'centered' around Lake Jackson - which has the word
"Sebring" in it. The Kenilworth Lodge is on the SE shore of Lake
Jackson.

The event was centered around and hosted at the "Kenilworth Lodge" (
web-site-here) and we rode each morning (Saturday, Sunday, Monday) right from the parking-lot in front of the hotel...
However the 'Lodge' is only a hotel - the actual riding-event was put-on by the
local cycling club
( the "Highlands Pedallers" (Highlands is the name of the county
that Sebring is located in)) and they are pretty well organized.
It
rained a 'bit' today (Monday) but, of course, the organizers do not
control the weather (much as we all would like for them to!)...
The other two days of riding were quite good - though hot - the
courses were pretty decent, the mild 'hills' a good training set-up for
North Carolina (later this month) and the rest-stops very well
stocked with sports-drinks, snacks and water...
I had a
respected & valued member of our family
with me to help me out as 'Pitt Crew' for the cycling portion as well
as 'Navigator' for the drive up and the drive back to Stuart....
Other
pictures from other sources will come in later - there were at least
three other people ( Besides Jim Harris of "Bike Tour Photo" ) who took
pictures...
Give us some more time - as September develops - we'll have more things here on the web-page(s)...
