To: All Trikkers
What: Trikke gathering and ride
Where: Blanchard Park - Little Econ Greenway Trail, Orlando
When: Saturday May 17, 2008
Time: 08:00 (Before it gets too hot. It is Florida after all! )
Hey Trikkers! Let's move things to the East side of Orlando for this
ride. Blanchard Park is where the Little Econ Greenway Trail begins
and extends West for almost 8 miles. The trail runs beside the Little
Econ River and offers nice vistas and plenty of green scenery.
Blanchard park has plenty of room to picnic or play
tennis/basketball/baseball so if you have family that doesn't Trikke,
they can play in the park while we ride. It's not a very long trail,
but it is very nice.
The park opens at 08:00, so let's take advantage of the coolness of
the morning, before the sun hits 'broiling' status!
Here's a link to the park:

I hate to...beat a dead horse but, remember to bring plenty of water
to re-hydrate.
I plan on hanging at the park till 08:45 - 09:00 to give some
assistance any newcomers who show up to see what Trikke is all about
and 'carving' tips for those needing them. Then we'll take off and
you can ride as a group or just do your own thing, depending on your
level of ability. As always, go as far as you feel comfortable with,
no pressure.
I hope to see some of our more experienced Trikkers there to offer
their knowledge base to those who need it. I've had many requests
from locals for rides and tips and I will be sending an email to my
club list for those who do not visit TrikkeTalk (although I don't
know why they wouldn't), so you may meet some new Trikkers from your
area and make new Trikking buddy's!
