Woohoo! I made it to Key Largo. I took a day off yesterday rather than fight 35 mph head winds. Today was mostly tail winds and a lovely day. I rode 63 miles. Here’s the map from today and pix and movies.
The Old Cutler Road Biking Trail. Very nice.
They even trim the hangy down stuff, so you don’t have to duck.
Welcome to Homestead.
The water tower in the background is at the big racetrack for you Nascar fans.
Looking over the Oversea Highway to the Manatee River
Riding through Everglades National Park. Lotta traffic.
Happy to say I didn’t encounter any crocodiles. I did have to stop a couple of times during that 6 miles and was on high alert!
Getting ready to get on the bridge to Key Largo.
Woo hoo!
A triple decker boat storage facility.
My teeny tiny room. I have to walk over the bed to get to the bathroom. And I had to remove Heyoka’s two front panniers to get him inside the door!
But the view right outside is awesome!
Watch out for falling coconuts sign.
The outside view of my cottage.
Cafe Largo. Nice dinner! I had almond crusted hogfish snapper and a couple of Key West ales. And a slice of Key Lime pie due to the extreme mileage today 🙂
I must have checked in just in time. When I got back from dinner, the “no vacancy” sign was up.

Looking at the pictures of your room I see you are living large.HA HA HA
Yeah, definitely. It was insane. I had to walk across the bed to get to the bathroom!
What a beautiful view! That was really nice. When I watched your video, I was expecting to hear someone shout, “Caramel Malted!” from a passing vehicle. Love you!
Good golly, riding with you thru the glades, I ain’t sure you’d be more afraid of the traffic than crocs, eh? Heyoka probably like this tinny room best since he got to rest with some weight of his shoulders! Safe travels!
