Does anyone know if there is any decent riding and bike hire around Orlando in Florida. Off there next month but fancy getting away from the Disney madness for a few trails while there. Any help would be much appreciated.

MTB if possible but looking on the web it seems to be mainly road riding. Will have a vehicle so can travel

Mhh Mtb is pretty limited its flatter than a pancake.There is some good road riding.Or if you just want a day out on a bike try here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Orange_Trail not the most exciting but a nice cycle away from the traffic

Orange Cycle is a good shop, they have a links page

There's a newish trail opened last year at Mt Dora, only a few miles north of Orlando centre.

Mount Dora trail looks ok. I've sent off an email to Orange Cycles so here's hoping. Will need a brake from the Mickey Mouse madnesss while there.

Thanks
