New Bikes await first "Guest" riders
Bike riding on Amelia Island is enjoyable for guests and locals alike. With flat terrain, short distances, and generally sunny and mild conditions, it is a great way to see the Island. Like many B&B’s we inherited a set of bikes when we bought the Inn and have nursed them along so they at least were useable. But a recent failure in one of the older units induced us to update and we now have four brand new Atlas bikes for guest use. We utilized our local bike dealer (one block away) who convinced us that you get what you pay for and a $99 bike at the Big retailer is worth just about what you pay for it, and lasts in tandem with that price. These aren’t fancy with gears and hand brakes, just the old fashioned mens/womens versions of the bike we had as kids. With the flat terrrain on the Island it is all one needs, and the less parts on a bike the longer they seem to last. So, book a room and know that your local transportation needs are covered. By the way, they are all safety yellow in color so you won’t be missed in the crowd and other vehicles can more easily see you! We also include a basket so you can at least get a start on bringing back all your wonderful finds at local stores.
