Road Trip!
Great time of year to do one day cruises with top down for you sun lovers out there.

My recommendations:

CR 78 between SR 29 and SR 31 in Hendry/Lee County (40 mins)

Scenic Hwy east of SR 27 in Sebring Area (45 mins)

SR 98 around panhandle (1-2 days)

What else is out there???
 
Any of the roads thru the Ocala National Forest :thumbsup:. But be sure to fill up before you get off a major highway. Gas is "very scarce" on those roads..............
Andy :wavey:
 
I'm trying to think of the route that has the billboards that read "we bear it all"???

My fondest ride is Key Largo to Key West during sunrise :D

That'd be I-75:rofl1::rofl1:

I'm with ya on the Overseas Highway at daybreak or sunset:thumbsup:
 
The backroads between Micanopy and St. Augustine.
The curvy twisty roads by Myakka State Park.
Any roads through the barrier islands like Anna Maria, Longboat, Casey, etc.

Amen brother!

I forgot about Micanopy. We were up there "antiquing" a year or so ago.....beautiful drive:thumbsup:

SR 13 from Palatka to Jacksonville. Mature trees that were allowed to stay in the ROW of a state road and riverviews all the way.
I also like SR 19 through the forest.

I use to travel these two roads traveling between Sebring and Jacksonville
 
Route 1

Route 1 goes almost the entire length of Florida on the east coast side of the state. Its four lane, but a 'comfortable' four lane. It reminds me of Florida's version of Route 66...with those quirky small town sites you come across...and Route 1 has those and then some!
 
Had to go to Jacksonville yesterday on business and decided to take 301 South on the way back once I got to Gainsville. This is a good route to take for a drive multilane divided but rolling hills and horse farms everywhere.
 
We have a thing for going topless (hence: "droptopgal") & the beach, thus we can frequently be found cruising along A1A, bikini clad, & in the Vette of course. Delray/Boca to Fort Lauderdale is a nice drive, sometimes we go further to Hollywood beach.

Every now and then, we'll cruise South Beach. Of course, one can't just cruise South Beach without stopping for one of those wonderful (huge) drinks!

At least twice a year, we venture to either Marathon or Key West. That is always a neat drive once you get off the mainland.

Heres one of those quirky signs in one of those small towns, north on Route 1, somewhere near Jacksonville...

The NPD cruise to Cedar Key this past Friday through the back roads of the Ocala Horse Farms, SR 326 through Goethe State Forest, and SR 24 to Cedar Key is a must see.

We had lunch at the Big Deck Raw Bar had the biggest and best blackened grouper sandwich I have ever had. Some of the other places that we previewed are the Pickeled Pelican, and the Rusty Rim Pub both with ocean view decks.

Cedar Key is a great destination for a cruise and lunch, but with no beach I would not make it an overnight trip.
