Hi, I have a week working in Orlando at the end of February, I am based in the UK and flying with my bike is a pain and I don’t want a damaged bike so, if anyone has any recommendations on where I can hire a road / gravel bike for a day or two I would be really grateful.

Check out Kyles bike shop [image] Kyle's Bike Shop | Downtown Orlando, FL | Bicycle Sales At Kyle's Bike Shop, we provide bicycle sales & service, parts & accessories for any bike or brand.

Thank you, I really appreciate the recommendation, I did a google search but I much prefer a personal experience.

I’d guess you know this, but we call it “rental” rather than “hire”. Might help with your search and subsequent communication. :blush:

Thanks for the reminder - two countries separated by a common language !

Just throwing this out there…. I don’t know where you plan to ride but lake apopka west of Orlando is a great gravel loop. Also there is the world famous sugarloaf mountain, highest point in Florida. That’s also near Clermont which has some good road riding too. Not sure what area you are staying …

Thanks for the suggestions, it is a work trip - usual kick off type thing, we are staying in a Hilton near Disney. I am not sure how much free time I will get and I might be too optimistic but, hope to get a least 1 ride done to keep my sanity !

If you are staying at Hilton Signia @ Bonnet Creek, I used to work at the Italian restaurant there “La Luce”. Great food, all from scratch and the pizza is amazing! Sanity rides are definitely a good thing and hope you get a chance to ride!

I brought my bike to Orlando last year…. Unless you’re training for something and need to ride, I’d just not ride. If you’re by Disney, you at least need to cart the bike a few miles away from Disney as all the roads are 45mph/no-shoulder roads.
