Regarding the news about the bike trail in transformation I am ecstatic about the project named the TavDora trail. This will reenergize this tricity area and lessen traffic problems as well as encourage people to get healthier. Hurray for Tavares city manager!! J. Linville

Great News! We often take our bikes to Apopka and Winter Garden, and of course spend $ there at local restaurants, outdoor markets, etc. We can't help but notice how many other walkers and cyclists are there and how much it adds a 'healthy vibe' to those communities. Would prefer to spend our money here in Lake County and downtown Mt Dora and Tavares!

No no no. Keep the tracks, they'll bring more business than a bike trail.

Would love to see this trail a reality. Would hate to see having to utilize old 441 as that certainly is pretty or safe. The traffic there is very fast for walkers runners and cyclist.

The bike trail is a wonderful idea. Everyone I know is in full support of it going forward. Great addition for our area!

Hope we can avoid inadvertently excluding e-bikes when drafting the no motor language which have a motor for peddling assistance which becomes more import for us aging adults.

We use the West Orange Trail frequently and certainly spend our dollars in the Winter Garden restaurants and businesses , it would be great too be able to do that more locally in Mount Dora and Tavares.

We often haul our bikes to West Orange Trail from Mt Dora. Of course we ride the trail into downtown and spend money in their restaurants and stores.

We spend winters in Mt Dora and are looking for a home to buy. We ride our bikes and would LOVE to see this trail become a reality. Our Ohio home is on a bike trail which has brought untold visitors and income to our small town there.

We are moving to Mount Dora about 1/2 a mile from the railway and are hoping for the bike trail to be built. We love to bike and would much rather not have to put our bikes on the car to drive somewhere else just to bike. Please build the TavDora trail!!!

I understand that there is the possibility of a track and trail design that could accommodate both excursion trains and cyclists/skaters/walkers. As a person who misses the enjoyment and convenience of riding the trains between Tavares and Mount Dora, I for one would be very glad to see that happen. Also, the special event trains such as the pumpkin patch and Christmas trips, were wonderful family experiences that brought many, many people to both cities.
