I'm new to MFP and I live in the Palm Coast area. I don't jog that fast/long due to a tricky knee, but I love to bike. My average speed is about 13mph. My rides last from 1-3 hours, and I usually go out around 9am on the weekdays. I like to put in my earphones and listen to music most times, but I think that having a person to ride with could be fun too. My riding style is to keep up a moderate to fast pace on long stretches of straight sidewalk, but when it comes to getting across town, I like to cut through parking lots, and jump curbs to make it interesting. If I end up near DSC, I will usually go for a couple rounds on the extreme bike trails behind linnear park. (they are pretty intense and not for the faint of heart). If I end up near Florida Park Dr. I will usually stop at the workout equipment behind the racquet ball courts at the park there and pump out some body weight exercises before continuing. I am the type of person that will completely throw off an intended bike route to explore some random dirt path through the woods just to see what is there. If that sounds like fun to you, and you can keep up, give me a shout.

    Hey J,

    Well, as much as I want to get a bike, I don't know if I could keep up with you! HA! Hope you find a biking partner. Could be fun and beneficial to both of you. Tell me more about those extreme bike trails. Sounds interesting. I didn't know there were any trails like that in PC.

    behind linnear park there are some normal bike trails that are flat and have wide turns that are easy to maneuver at a moderate to fast speed. There are also trails that resemble what you would expect a motocross track to look like. There are "rhythm sections", which is a section of trail that is a series of short mounds that you ride over in quick succession. There are also these big drops that descend and ascend at a 45 degree angle and are about 10 feet deep. Those trails are back in the woods and are not very wide. They are not marked on the park map, and I'm not sure who made them.
