Biking around Naples

I will be moving to Naples in May. After hearing all the stories regarding the traffic nightmares and gas prices, I am considering purchasing a road bike to manuever my way around Naples. Is the city biker friendly?

No it really isn%26#39;t. There are always battles being raged especially between bikers and Pelican Bay. Bikers are looked upon as a nuisance and very few drivers will go out of their way to ';share the road';.

Putting local politics aside, we found many



parts of Naples to be a wonderful place for biking. There are many bike lanes and away



from the main roads, traffic is not a nuisance. Hook up with other bikers at



the bike shop in the Pavillion Shopping Center on Vanderbilt Beach Road %26amp; 41...They



have many groups of all levels riding from there. They also can suggest routes for daily transportation. Naples is not perfect for biking, but it is so terrific in many ways, that it is easy to deal with the slight



imperfections!!!!
