[ameliaislandcycling.com] Amelia Island-Main Beach Ride, July 4, 2026, 9:00 AM

[Susan Taylor]

Tomorrow's Amelia Island Main Beach bike ride will be "led" by Amy Kahn and yours truly, departing at 9:00 AM from Main Beach, located at South Fletcher Ave. (A1A) and Atlantic Ave., near the Recreation Center and the entrance to Fort Clinch State Park.  We usually park east of the Skateboard Park.  The standard routes are 30-35 miles, but this uniquely designed ride allows riders to cut off loops along the way to reduce the overall distance, if desired.

This being the first Saturday of the month of July 2026, we will pass the helmet at Main Beach to collect $$$ for the Doggies, our way of thanking the Nassau Humane Society for their rest-stop hospitality at the Dog Park, and all they do for lucky dogs (and tired cyclists).

Online registration with the North Florida Bicycle Club is required for members and non-members who intend to ride with us tomorrow.  Go to NFBC.us and follow the prompts.

Bicycle helmets are mandatory, as is a bicycle in good working condition. Safe cycling is an absolute must, and safety rules will be emphasized before the start of each ride. As always, cyclists are required to obey all traffic laws.

There may be crowds on the roads, with visitors here to celebrate the 4th of July, so be extra careful out there, y'all.
