Default Key West Poker Run

Just got back. Here are the top 5 reasons to love the Key West Poker Run:

1) The run covers the whole length of the keys. The water was beautiful.
2) The traffic sign as you enter Key West is flashing:
"Welcome All Motorcycles"
then flashes:
"And Your Loud Pipes"
3) They have a law against carrying open drinks on the sidewalk... but treat it more like a guideline(ish) kinda thing, and don't enforce it.
4) One of the vendors was selling boob pasties (that is pretty damn cool) and the sales ladies were modeling the goods (that takes it off the charts).
5) It's Key West...

AARRRG... I lived a block or so off the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale for 22 years prior to moving to Maui, and now you have to remind me of the keys. I've been on Maui for four years, Maui may be an island but it sure isn't Key West, Islamorada, Marathon, Plantation Key, Miami Beach, The Everglades, or any other part of Florida... I'm looking forward to spending two weeks, from November 21 to December 6 in Florida with my wife and showing her "My Florida"... I love Florida and can't wait!!!

Duval Crawl!

tons of webcams out there for KW.
def one of the coolest places out there.

...also, KW technically isnt the last key. google "dry tortuga" the real last key. great place to camp out overnight(if they still allow that). but, you cant take a bike there.

I've been to the Dry Tortugas, yes you can still camp there but jeez it's hot as hell, no shade and the store is open for an hour a day. I did a day trip on a catamaran and went snorkeling. Fort Jefferson and its history is really interesting.
