Moving to Jacksonville next month
question for south east people. I am debating re-opening my bike shop after I move back to Florida and once i get some capitol built up,
Question is what bike related products, services, or classes, do you all really want to see or need?
Or maybe tours? and bike camping equipment rental services. the ideas are still coming to me

Welcome to Jacksonville. There are quite a few bicycle shops in Jax and surrounding areas. No touring events in this area that I am aware of. The North Florida Bicycle Club has a fairly large member base. There is a club just North of the border in Georgia , i think is based out of Camden County.
You will just in time for the Tour de Fortes put on by the NFBC. A large event that is usually well attended. Had approx 700 riders last year.

With all the changes that have gone on since 'Rona' came to town...is this still in the works?
I can tell you this. Don't eat at Jollibee.

I am/was shocked there was a Jollibee there. I have spent a lot of time in the Philippines, where Jollibee is much beloved. Never liked it personally, and never thought it would appeal to American tastes, so I'm kinda shocked they crossed the ocean with it.

I found out after my debacle there that it's pretty much the Phillipino answer to McDonalds.
I got EXTREMELY sick. My doctor said he would have went with Norovirus except for a symptom or two. The only thing that really makes sense is Salmonella and then bad gut biome. I was sick over the entire month all said and lost ~30# from it. The funny part is that I sent word both to the store and their corporate entity and haven't gotten so much as a we are sorry back.
