I plotted the 4 hour course and lead 3 others on this curvy (for FL) rural ride. Gorgeous day, fun ride. Bookended with Grouper sandwiches and pichers of beer waterside at Woody's River Roo.
Mostly excellent roads, many with almost no houses or business. Orange groves, tree farms, sod farms, other farms. Cattle, bison and more. Many places to open it up. No radar or LEO encountered on back roads.
Here are the directions I plotted:
Gecko 2-11
275 to Exit 2 40 m
41N 1 m
R Moccasin/683 > 97th 7 m
R onto 301S/43 1/2 m
