Beaches & Adventure Insider

Lauren Tjaden

Hang gliding is my passion, and in 2006, I helped the U.S. Women's Hang Gliding Team win silver in the World Championships. An author, ultimate adventure lover, beach bunny and sand snob, I've visited almost every beach in Florida and can't wait to explore more. Join me as I flip-flop across the Sunshine State, sharing the softest sand, sweetest shores and a boatload of adventure.



Biking Lake Minneola

February 09, 2010

I couldn’t be prouder if I had just won a Pulitzer.

I actually just made a movie. I brought my spiffy, new, cell-phone-size Kodak Zx1 video camera on my bike ride today. I rode from my house to Clermont’s Waterfront Park and then around Lake Minneola, which is about 15 miles total and my favorite jaunt.

Lake Minneola is a hot spot for windsurfing, waterskiing and wakeboarding, and you can swim and fish there, too. The bike trail runs all the way from the Waterfront Park to Killarney Station, and then it hooks up with the West Orange Trail, so you have all sorts of options for places to go. You can rent bikes or roller blades from Bikes ‘n Blades at Killarney.

So check out my flick!
