At 46 miles in length, the Withlacoochee State
Trail is presently the longest paved rail trail in
Florida. The trail corridor runs through small
towns, ranches, and natural areas as it makes its
way south from Citrus Springs to Trilby. The trail
traverses a region that offers many other
outstanding recreational opportunities. Among
the recreational highlights nearby are the
unpaved trails in the Croom area of the
Withlacoochee State Forest, the Withlacoochee
River (South) Canoe Trail, and Fort Cooper State
Park. The Withlacoochee Trail will eventually join
many other trails in the region, becoming part of
the Central Florida Loop.
Come into the shop and check them out! It’s all
about the fun. It’s about the science of making
bicycles more accessible, more affordable and
more capable. Because that’s what makes cycling
one of life’s finer addictions—being able to take
yourself places with a minimum of effort,
powered by legs and lungs, driven by little more
than the desire and the willingness to turn those
pedals over!

Dunnellon Florida is famous for The Rainbow River,
The Withlacoochee River and Lake Rousseau.
Canoeing, kayaking or paddle boarding these
waters are amazing. The Rainbow River is feed by a
first magnitude spring that ranks fourth in the state
for the volume of fresh water it discharges. As much
as 400 to 600 million gallons of crystal clear water
flow out of the springs every day. Many springs feed
the Rainbow River not just the Headsprings. As you
drift down the Rainbow River you can see the
separate springs boiling up in many spots if look
closely. The Rainbow River is 5.7 miles long and
meets at the confluence of the Rainbow and
Withlacoochee Rivers in Dunnellon at the city beach.
These two rivers form Lake Rousseau. The
headwaters of Rainbow Springs are located at
Rainbow Springs State Park. Come and explore the
waterways our area has to offer.
