0:40
steps to
0:40
lake ryan hard which is the name of it
0:44
and there's a little plaque
0:46
right down here stating it and did you
0:48
know that outside
0:51
of gator themed parks
0:55
it is a violation of florida law to feed
0:58

1:01
you can feed them at theme park type
1:04
attractions that have them on site
1:07
but it is not allowed
1:14
elsewhere welcome everyone
1:14
adam the woo here the other evening my
1:17
parents came to visit
1:18
and we were kind of traversing around
1:20
this general vicinity
1:22
and they're checking out the holiday
1:24
decor
1:25
and we're noticing there were a vast
1:28
amount of
1:29
scooters in the area by the name of newt
1:32
in e wt that you could rent
1:36
and i had this had this genius idea that
1:38
i was gonna
1:40
basically rent one
1:43
and do a little tour a makeshift
1:45
impromptu tour
1:47
around town outside of this
1:50
this vicinity except now all of
1:54
all of them are gone i don't see one
1:56
newt scooter
1:57
anywhere downloaded the app the other
2:00
day i did and there were probably a
2:01
couple dozen
2:03
within a few blocks now there are zero
2:07
sad trombone moment i'm just gonna make
2:10
the best of it i'm inviting you to join
2:12
me who knows what this day
2:13
will bestow upon myself and for you
2:17
shall you now celebration does have some
2:20
very
2:20
strict policies maybe that's why the
2:24
five or six that i saw sitting over here
2:26
on the sidewalk were
2:27
removed or possibly yeah there were even
2:31
some
2:32
on that corner as well
2:35
or possibly they're just recharging them
2:38
and they're going to bring them back
2:40
dang
2:41
i missed the boat on that check this out
2:44
this is the app
2:45
the red zones are places you're not
2:47
supposed to ride it but any of the other
2:49
streets you can
2:50
as well as parking there are no newts
2:53
there now let me scroll up to i drive
2:57
international drive you will be able to
2:59
see that there are
3:00
quite a few of this this is what i was
3:02
seeing the other evening
3:04
indicating there were a bunch around
3:06
there it looks like there's maybe
3:08
20 or 30 at least up on i drive but no
3:11
more here
3:12
here in celebration strange rest assured
3:16
however
3:17
once they reappear oh bird tripper
3:20
behind me
3:21
once they reappear i'll be the first one
3:23
to
3:24
to procure one
3:32
and take it on a ride on these paths
3:32
this is a cabbage palm says so right
3:35
there
3:36
medium height 30 to 60 inches
3:39
slow to medium growth rate they are
3:43
drought
3:43
tolerant but the sign has been shipped
3:46
away there
3:52
i think is great about this area there's
3:52
plenty of picnic tables
3:54
barbecue grills seats
3:58
trash cans trails and wooden bridges
4:02
hello again sorry no not not hello again
4:05
not the shelly long
4:07
film from the 80s whoop
4:10
scurrying by pretty quick it's because
4:13
there's a dog on the path
4:21
oh you're not afraid of that dog are you
4:21
as i sit here on this bench with the
4:23
inscription of the town
4:25
inscribed on it i was looking online
4:33
and noticed they do bike rentals over
4:33
there at the hotel
4:35
maybe i'll do that a little hidden
4:38
walkway over here
4:39
doesn't lead to much it's just an
4:41
overlook down
4:43
to the trees and the swamp
4:50
they have lots of indicators of the
4:50
florida wildlife
4:52
for example water birds here's a listing
4:55
of one two three four
4:56
five six seven of them that you can find
5:00
around for example a sandhill crane
5:06
which love obscuring traffic if you're
5:08
familiar with them
5:10
or how about a wood duck that's the back
5:13
side of the hotel no not the back side
5:15
of water the back side
5:16
well i guess technically it would be the
5:18
back side of water because this is
5:20
around around the end of the lake
5:24
but that's the bohemian hotel where they
5:27
do bike rentals
5:29
i'm gonna go ask i wouldn't be too
5:31
shocked to see an armadillo
5:33
wandering around in this forest section
5:37
but if i stumbled upon a wild hog
5:40
rooting around over there in the foliage
5:44
i don't know if i would get this close
5:46
to them i'd probably take a couple steps
5:48
back
6:07
you are very friendly
6:07
saw your friend earlier on the other
6:09
side of the lake
6:11
are you gonna go meet up okay
6:14
oh no you're looking all right see you
6:17
later
6:18
oh no you're just you're not going away
6:19
you're right there
6:22
looking for something are you digging
6:34
okay see ya don't believe this is
6:38
affiliated at all
6:43
with the reservations at the hotel but
6:43
there is a two-wheeled
6:45
taxi which are also bicycles it's like
6:48
that stand is not currently open though
6:50
now i really want to rent this can i
6:53
wheel this around the community
7:02
i hope the answer is yes so it has a
7:02
little basket
7:03
on there and here is okay it's a scenic
7:07
seven mile loop
7:13
it shows the general vicinity here
7:13
different stations
7:15
so you can see there's already three out
7:18
and the rates are thirty dollars for up
7:20
to 24 hours
7:23
only want to bike for two hours enjoy a
7:25
ten dollar discount per bike
7:30
oh it's all done online find the bike
7:33
number you would like to rent
7:35
go to the website pay and receive an
7:37
unlock code
7:39
dang that sounds simple looking at the
7:42
you are here arrow that is the route
7:46
that i can
7:47
take everything inscribed with the
7:49
sharpie there
7:50
so i can go through roseville corner and
7:53
go
7:54
down to aquila
7:57
reserve south village
8:01
evander square spring lake and then
8:04
back over if i so choose i can kind of
8:06
veer off a little bit but that's the
8:08
that's the route they have inscribed
8:09
got it all set up i am at station 110
8:12
total cost with tax was
8:14
21 and 40 cents
8:18
i believe maybe somewhere in that
8:20
ballpark
8:21
so i just have to utilize this they have
8:24
sent me the code
8:26
and i could believe i could take this
8:28
along with me
8:29
so if i need to to tie it up to anything
8:32
that would work and i have this for two
8:35
hours
8:36
i should probably look at my phone and
8:37
see exactly what time it is
8:39
i was incorrect you do not take the lock
8:42
with you
8:43
pull this out of its little little
8:45
stanchion here
8:47
so i cannot go into any stores
8:51
risking the someone would take the bike
8:55
and there's a little
8:57
little piece of net there i could put
8:59
like et in this
9:01
little kickstand there we go
9:04
all right got my mobile bike taxi
9:09
here it goes on to the boardwalk
9:14
one of the many boardwalks
9:32
it's got three speeds got a break on
9:32
that side
9:33
and a break on this side
9:36
a little bit windy through this area
9:40
gotta go slow
9:54
i think i'm gonna learn my way around
9:54
pretty well by doing this
9:57
see some areas i didn't know existed
9:58
even has a little bell
10:15
looks as if they're doing a little
10:15
roofing there
10:17
that very impressive home
10:20
i'll say hello
10:27
i think they heard me kind of veering
10:27
off of the
10:29
allotted path heading into east lawn
10:34
looking at some of these homes still
10:36
decorated
10:38
for the season
10:45
almost has a very beverly hills type
10:45
vibe doesn't it
11:06
a very narrow bike path here stay in
11:06
between the lines
11:08
stay in between the lines
11:11
so much interesting architecture
11:19
for example this building
11:27
the staircase here has a very blade
11:27
runner
11:28
vibe to it at the forefront of market
11:31
street
11:33
looping around the fountain here market
11:36
square
11:36
market circle designated market square
11:41
even though it is a traffic circle and
11:43
it's in a sphere
11:44
it's technically a square
11:48
because there are block streets while
11:50
streets that make up a block like a
11:53
looks as if this
11:57
blocked off loop back this way
12:08
go through this little obstacle course
12:08
here
12:10
i got this even one-handed
12:25
past the very unique post office
12:25
see the tippy top there of the theater
12:27
in the distance
12:35
oh interesting this is where they store
12:35
the carriages that roll around in the
12:37
evening time or strong carriages
12:43
there's a name right up there on the
12:43
side that's the theater in there
12:52
little behind the scenes tour
12:52
more than enough places to reside not
12:54
just houses but plenty of condos and
12:57
apartments
12:59
more than you would think until you get
13:01
in here
13:03
and obviously houses and homes as well
13:12
some would use with you would think they
13:12
would be residents
13:13
their businesses along one of the
13:17
main thoroughfares
13:48
i have to try that one of these guys
13:48
this grass
13:50
yeah this is dare i say more beautiful
13:53
than hub grass
13:55
very probably about the same classic
13:58
car alert
14:02
oh wow the the ground smells so
14:05
fresh heading down water street now the
14:08
one-way road
14:09
it's also one way on the opposite side
14:13
and this connects with market street
14:16
down here a couple blocks i noticed
14:19
there's a sushi
14:20
restaurant right there and i do love
14:23
some sushi so that's going to happen
14:26
at some point
14:30
the fountain over here the movie theater
14:33
is now behind me yeah this classic
14:37
fountain
14:38
very beautiful right here always
14:40
illuminating
14:41
water after zipping around in this for
14:44
quite some time
14:46
i have warmed up a little bit don't
14:47
really need the jacket on i have worked
14:49
up
14:50
quite a switch why am i holding this and
14:52
trying to get the theater in frame and
14:54
the fountain
14:55
and the bike all the safe i gotta put
14:58
this down
14:59
it's getting heavy and it is just about
15:01
time
15:02
for me to return this so heading back
15:05
over
15:05
to where i got it which is located over
15:09
near the hotel bohemian hotel
15:13
they probably still do rent them inside
15:14
the hotel as well but i found this other
15:16
spot
15:17
as time goes on i'm sure i'll try
15:18
everything in this general vicinity
15:21
in this neck of the woods but for now
15:24
this was this was a lot of fun got my
15:26
exercise then
15:27
definitely got my exercise up and it was
15:30
very simple to rent
15:33
and to return
15:46
back looks as if i could have
15:46
adjusted the seat height
15:54
next time not a bad deal really 21
15:54
and change give or take you know adding
15:56
on the the taxes
15:57
and whatnot to not store a bicycle not
16:00
to use the air not to have your own
16:01
maintenance
16:02
pretty good deal it'd be kind of neat to
16:06
utilize one of those segways also that'd
16:08
be i don't know i don't feel like i have
16:10
the balance
16:11
for one of those but maybe in time it's
16:14
like everyone's got
16:16
who's walking your dog with the segway
16:18
thing i like about this
16:20
this neighborhood everyone's on bicycles
16:23
everyone's on skateboards
16:24
another bicycle here and just everyone's
16:26
out enjoying
16:34
enjoying the day that's what i was doing
16:34
i worked up
16:36
burned a few calories on the bike and
16:38
peddling it
16:39
it was it was a little not almost a
16:41
rough but it had a little friction even
16:43
on gear one
16:44
gear two was a little more intense gear
16:46
three was a little a little more as far
16:48
as pedal power
16:49
took a little more pressure to push it
16:50
down but even on one got a little bit of
16:52
a workout
16:54
not a bad thing that's going to do it
