2005 Bike Florida - About the Ride : Bike Florida 2005: Red Hills to the Sea (featuring Worm Gruntin' and Oyster Shuckin') was a 7-day fully-supported bicycle and tent camping tour that pedaled between 315-385 miles among the rolling hills and along the beautiful Gulf Coast of the Florida Panhandle. The tour was leisurely-paced, but challenging and was designed to be a fun and relaxing vacation for cyclists of all ages. The average age this year was probably in the mid 50's. Over-night camping stays included Monticello, Quincy, Blountstown, Apalachicola and Sopchoppy with a layover day mid-week in Apalachicola, on the Gulf of Mexico.They used local park facilities and school grounds for tent camping with porta-lets and shower trucks. Limited indoor camping was also available. Weather for the first 2 days got down in the high 30's in the AM. The rest of the days were in 60's and 70's It rains heavy two nights and one day. Azaleas and other flowers were in full-bloom and were breathtaking.

Day 3 - Quincy to Blountstown 3-21-05 : Quincy to Blountstown.A rest stop at Torreya State Park on the way. Torreya State Park: The high bluffs overlooking the Apalachicola River make Torreya State Park one of Florida's most scenic. Rising more than 150 feet above the river, the bluffs have been shaped and divided by deep ravines that have been eroded by streams throughout the centuries and the topography and plant life is similar to North Georgia or Tennessee

Day 6 - Apalachicola to Sopchoppy 3-24-05 : Today's ride was along the beautiful gulf coastfor almost 40 of hugging the shoreline of the Gulf of Mexico. The first town we passed through was East Point, a small fishing community, known for its oysters. Tongers (the traditional name for oystermen) still harvest the oysters in the way they have for over a century. Working from small wooden boats (20-25 foot long) in shallow water, they use tongs that look like two rakes attached (in a scissor like fashion) to scoop the oysters to the surface and dump them into the boat. On shore, the seafood houses sort the oysters and package them for sale. The bay is carefully monitored to ensure the health and productivity of the oyster beds. .There was was an optional stop at Ochlocknee State Park, which offers perfect examples of the scenic natural characteristics found along north Florida's Gulf coast. It has a diverse habitat of Pine flat woods and oak thickets with lots of wildflowers for wildlife (deer, bobcats, gray foxes and extensive bird life including red-cockaded woodpeckers). Sopchoppy is our last overnight location and the home of the world Famous "Worm Gruntin' Festival. You' were able to watch a video of last year's festival and meet the 2004 "Worm Gruntin' King", tried our hand at gruntin' and viewed film footage of Charles Kuralt covering worm grunting and Sopchoppy in the 1970's.
