Florida's Newest Mountain Bike Jump Trails | Alafia River State Park

- For a long time Florida has been on of my "go to" winter riding destinations. For anyone living on the east coast or even middle America it's a easy flight or drive to fairly predictable warm weather. The trail builders are super creative and the best example in the state is Alafia River State Park. They have a full time trail builder on staff and lots of dedicated volunteers working to keep things buffed out and fresh

Shhhh....don't tell anybody else about what a great job these builders are doing. We will need to hire air-traffic controllers soon!
Nice vid and capture of the local vibe. 🤘🏽
Man, I miss going out there. Used to have Fridays off and heading out to Alafia or Balm River was a great way to start my weekend. One of the best parts about living in the Tampa area.
Thanks for showcasing our home town trails again. Hope to see another Carter rd video, definitely some cool new stuff there too!
Been hitting Alafia each year when I visit from WA. Really fun park and well built trails!! Thanks for highlighting some of the good spots!! Sick bike to shred that place on too!!
Im going to move to Florida and mtb is my love, so first of all Im discovering cycling in Florida. And I was really happy to see that these guys are same as me, not a teenagers. That's mean Florida has serious attitude for mtb. 👍
Definitely the right time of year to the FL trails.
I rediscovered MTB about 8 months ago, little did I know, when moving to the area few years ago, that I was right by all of these amazing trails. As an ex-BMXer (for decades), I can't believe how lucky I got. I ride these parks several times a week now. Alafia, Carter and Balm. LOVE them!
You got me motivated to get my Mountian Bike from up North and start getting back into riding. I moved here few years ago and left it up there cause I didn't think we have anywhere to ride and didn't fit in the car 😅 , which of the 3 you listed do you like the most?
@@1988Olds All three parks are different in their own ways... but if I had to pick my favorite, it would be Alafia just based on the variety of trails/jumps. Balm is long and Carter (Loyce) is technical.
Fun place. Opening day of the Meadows Flow jumpline was nuts. Hundreds of riders having a blast. Last night before dark I had the entire jumpline to myself. :)
So stoked that folks who ride all over have love for Alafia. Steve Caballero (80s skateboarding legend from California) rode Alafia a year or two ago and said it was "amazing".
Loved riding here during a visit two years ago after seeing it in a video Jeff posted then. Saw an armadillo there - didn’t know they lived in Florida. The Buzzards Bay loop lived up to its name. Trails there are so fun.
Between Santos and Alfia there is legit riding... Ebikes seem counterintuitive , but they really take riding in Fla to the next level
carter/rd in mulberry, and balm boyette also. don't sleep on those beasts

This totally echoes our Alafia experiences. On our past trips, my son and I would session the Gwazi Berm and end up meeting locals that would take us all over. Lost Meadows was introduced to us this way. There was so much stoke from everyone in the group it was contagious.
I love riding there
Always BOSS!!!
Can you please use 4k 60 fps, like its so beautiful places and your content is so fun, sad when youtube compression ruin it.
America have best trails
Wonder how they keep those packed with no clay in the soil, looks almost like concrete. Have ridden basically everything between Mayakka and Ft Meyers, but somehow that place always slipped under the radar.
Did those today 😮💨
thats a dirt bike right?
Going to Orlando end of March on a business trip. But have a few days before the work start for personal stuff.
Any recommendation where I could rent an eMTB and spend a few hours in a bikepark near Orlando ? I do not have a rental car.
I have tried a to search a lot, but with zero luck.
Santos bike shop may work, Santos trails,
@@BlackhawkFPVI will check that out. Thanks a lot
🤜🤛
I have no words, why is everyone on a battery bike? It's FLORIDA!
Are people getting that much weaker nowadays or what?
That's precisely the reason they're on a battery bike, come on down here and see how you do on the constant punchy climbs
Florida can be a bit deceptive on a bike.
@@alexandernickos2213I lived there for years. Did a 120 mile ride from Tamarac to the Valuejet memorial. Done plenty of rides in Markham Park among many other trails. I've never thought to myself "wow I really need a battery on my bike."
Not even here in Colorado!
I still ride an acoustic bike, often at Alafia… the guys on the emtb’s definitely get in more runs on the jump lines.. they zip back up and drop in 2 or 3 times more than me.. yeah I’m getting a work out buuut they’re getting more jumps in in a day than me, which gives them more experience. Also the sandy punchy climbs here will get ya..
I started mtb’n in Bentonville way back when, hated the weather and moved back to FL. you would be surprised with the terrain here, a lot of people think FL is flat everywhere and that’s not the case. I’ll just take a trip if want actual DH.
All in all, it’s great to see people out on the trail enjoying themselves, regardless what kind of bike they’re on.
@@phillipstocksdale6317Acoustic? Didn't know they played music...
"PromoSM" 🙌
Literally everyone in Florida is e biking. It’s sad
