Newcomers Darlene, Danny, Kim and Tallie joined the usual cast of characters for breakfast at Snellgroves on a beautiful Central Florida morning. By 9:00 a.m., the group, minus Bill and Carl, were on the road heading towards Sebring via a few select back roads. The route (click here) took us through Hopewell, Nichols, Pebbledale, Barcola, Agricola, and Bradley Junction. We then turned south to Baird, Fort Green, passing west of Wachula then on to Zolfo Springs where we had our first rest stop at the BP station. After a short break, we cut over to the Florida Cracker Trail. After a side trip south on Sweetwater Rd., we headed for Crewsville than on to Sebring for a stop at Annie's for lunch.
Unfortunately, there was not a soul around the restaurant despite the sign that they opened at noon. The group decided to divert to the Wild Turkey Tavern in Avon Park instead.
Robert makes his grand entrance.
Danny & Kim await their lunch.
As usual, the place was extremely busy, the atmosphere unique and the food excellent.
After lunch, we all decided to head for our respective homes by the most expeditious route. I arrived back in Lakeland about 3:30 p.m., having covered about 190 miles of Florida highway under clear and sunny skies.
Join us soon for another motorcycle adventure.
