Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge

FUN Motorcycle Training “LLC” we enjoy taking a ride through the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Here is a little information on how the Wildlife Refuge came about.

The refuge traces its beginnings to the development of the nation’s Space Program. In 1962, NASA acquired 140,000 acres of land, water, and marshes adjacent to Cape Canaveral to establish the John F. Kennedy Space Center. NASA built a launch complex and other space-related facilities, but development of most of the area was not necessary. In1963 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service signed an agreement to establish the refuge and in 1975 a second agreement established Canaveral National Seashore. Today, the Department of Interior manages most of the unused portions of the Kennedy Space Center as a National Wildlife Refuge and National Seashore.

This is a beautiful ride. A must for bikers and animal lovers. Enjoy the ride with FUN Motorcycle Training “LLC”.
