GO THE OTHER WAY!!! I hate crowds but that's just me. Don't care for those big rallies but will occasionally do smaller ones.

Just plan for any kind of weather...

Like any rally, you can get in the middle of it--- then find your way out to some nice riding.

You should be able to get an idea online of what is going on

start here:
http://www.officialbikeweek.com/

I'm sure there are other websites too.

Florida...no hills, no curves...but lots of people run down to the Keys.

I did it a few years in the 80's

I would say that Florida has some of the worst drivers in the USA- lots of tourists, not sure where they are going doing sudden turns or stops, maybe not sure of road laws and signals, old people etc. etc. keep your head on straight.

Mike
