Tampa to Orlando?
Has anybody biked from Tampa to Orlando? If so, what route? Thanks!
I am near Downtown Tampa/Bayshore and would like to ride in September to house of blues in Orlando to see a concert.

I've never rode that route, but I've drove it many different ways, obviously I-4 isn't an option, and the only way I can think to ride would be US 17/92. I think that would be scary though, not many other west - east routes I can think of, but I will ask around and see if anyone knows a better way.

Strava Heat Map, maybe? https://labs.strava.com/heatmap/#10/-...3483/blue/bike
It looks like a route could be strung together south of I4.

I have done long rides to see shows a couple times. I would try to plan myself time to eat, rehydrate, and relax before the show starts.
That is a long haul to see a show.
Much of 60 seems to have bike lanes.
This guy on Map MyRide has a route ... scroll in for details ... 107 miles. (Viewing Orlando to Tampa | MapMyRide)
