51st Annual Cycle Mount Dora 2026

Cycle Mount Dora, a bicycle festival in Mount Dora, Florida, has held more than fifty editions. The weekend begins with a relaxed Friday evening group ride of about six miles along Lakeshore Drive, concluding with entertainment on Highland Street. Saturday offers road and mountain bike routes for various ability levels. Riders can select from up to four routes: three road rides and one mountain bike option. The most challenging road ride is the 62-mile Yalaha Metric Century Club route, crossing the Hot Hellacious Hills of Lake County. Less experienced cyclists might prefer the 10-mile Trimble Park ride. The routes incorporate the rolling hills of Lake and Orange counties. Riders should bring their own water bottles, as rest stops provide refills but no cups. Event profits fund swim lessons for children and scholarships for individuals requiring financial assistance.
