Written Directions

Go North from Umatilla, FL through Ocala National Forest on Route 19. The road is build just above the wetlands. You can see for miles, and it is particularly pretty in the early morning. There's a place to stop for gas in Salt Spring, otherwise it is mostly deserted. If you have time for a swin, stop by Alexander Spring. It is always gin clear and 72 degrees.

Scenery

A mixture of forest, lakes and wetlands. Mostly undeveloped. This route is popular with local riders particularly Spring and Fall. Notice the old Florida Barge canal beneath the long bridge just north of the national Forest.

Drive Enjoyment

Not many twists and turns on this one, so you can really enjoy the scenery. Newer asphalt has very little wear. Route 310 is the smoothest motorcycle road in the state.

Tourism Opportunities

There is a good BBQ where County route 310 meets route 315.

Nicely paved with few cars during the weekend. Somewhat scenic with wide sweeping curves. Many parks to pull off into for a break.

Great ride! Sparse enough to be scenic but enough gas stations for fuel and drinks as needed.
