13.7 Mile Brompton Bike Ride around Flatwoods Wilderness Park (Tampa, FL)
November 1, 2018 | MayaCooler weather has begun in Central Florida (high 70°Fs – 80°Fs), so outdoor exploration is easier to do. We dusted off our Brompton folding bikes. In search for a trail that our thin bike tires can easily maneuver, we found a trail surfaced in asphalt – Flatwoods Wilderness Park: a paved loop that provides a wooded environment with abundant wildlife (such as armadillo, turtles, hawks, and deer to name a few)… with an extension which connects Bruce B. Downs Boulevard for a few extra miles to add the ride. Read More

Denny’s is only a little over a mile away. Perfect! Read More
Folding Bikes on Cruise Ships: Who allows them?
May 16, 2013 | Maya 9One of many advantages of owning a folding bike… in my case a Brompton… is portability. My Question all the cruise ships out there: What’s the protocol for folding bikes aboard your cruise ship?
