Just north of Homosassa Springs is a town called Cutlers. In Cutlers (off or US Highway 19) you'll W. Ozello Trail (Also known as State Route 494).
Scenery
Water, twisties and lots more water. This great hidden little route just about 60 miles north of Tampa and offers some great Gulf Coast riding. Lots of great side roads to explore as there are many other roads to ride in this area. Lots of water & Great for pictures and having lunch at Pecks Port Cove. Let me know and I would love to make the ride with you. I am 5 minutes from the road -
Drive Enjoyment
Very good, a few bridges and lots of twisties.
Tourism Opportunities
Pecks Old Port Cove restaurant on the water out toward the end is a great place to eat - great food!

This has to be one of the best motorcycle roads in Florida. My wife and I did our annual vacation in Florida again this winter so of course we had to go back and do this ride again. We did this ride last year but didn't get a chance to eat at Peck's. It's amazing how busy this restaurant is at 2:30 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. There was a 15 minute wait to get a table, but definitely worth it. Good food and a good ride.

Rode this earlier today (Saturday)...the road itself scenery is very nice, but the ride was disappointing. Let's start with the fact that the entire trail is only 9mi long. It's over very quickly. Add all the trucks towing boats toward the boat launch at end of the trail, and suddenly you're doing 30mph most of the way, and passing here is quite dangerous and is legal only in a couple spots. Food at Peck's Port Cove was the best part of the day. Might be better if you get here super early in the morning, but not sure.

Rode this Nov 21 '09 and it's all the previous comments state. A great ride! If I had more time I would have run it again. Word of warning about a parking lot at the foot of the bridge in the first photo. Graveled with marbles and challenging to turn in with a loaded top-heavy bike!
The Ozello Trail Ride. A nice ride. At the end of the ride stop and get some good food at Pecks Old Port Cove restaurant. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to hit that like button and subscribe! Be free & ride!
