SBA Headquarters

WUFT in Gainesville made a segment for their Greater Good TV show about Suwannee Bicycle Association! It is now available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/dzjys21oZ5U

Your donations over the year allowed us to donate 26 kids bikes and 2 adult bikes to Toys for Tots. They work in the Suwannee Valley region. The Lake City Reporter gave us front page coverage!

Hurricanes Debby, Helene and Milton hit White Springs and Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park hard. Our trail crews, as well as help from the Florida Trail Association and Run Bum Races, Fosters Hammock Trail, Bridge to Bridge, Gar Pond and Beast of Burden are all open and cleared of debris. The State Park is still clearing the roads in Big Shoals, and the Woodpecker Trail is closed for an indeterminate time due to a tree that crashed through one of the bridges. There is still work to be done on a section of the Beavor Loop.

The Anderson Springs trail and the Big Oak trail were in the direct line of Hurricane Idalia (2023), and sadly they are closed for the foreseeable future.
