This route follows the Tampa Riverwalk trail from North Blvd east into downtown, then picks up the Selmon Greenway path along Meridian Ave up to Twiggs St. It's about 3.5 miles.
I filmed it eastbound during the day and westbound at night. The night ride starts at Twiggs St, comes down the Meridian Ave path, and takes the Riverwalk west past Kennedy Blvd, Cass St and Laurel St all the way to Ridgewood Ave.
The Riverwalk is very busy, especially on weekends, so expect a lot of people walking. It's lit at night, which is why I filmed the night ride.
Both videos are real time except for the red-light waits, which I sped up.
