I've got the first week of Feb. off. I'm looking to ride to some warm weather and have never been to south Florida or the keys.
I plan on leaving Feb 1 and heading down the western coast to Everglades city, cutting across the glades and doing the loop road, then
making my way thur the keys. I don't plan on staying at Key West just go see the buoy and Hemingways house. Any suggestions for good
places to eat?I was told to try some conch fritters and have heard of a Lobster Reuben in Marathon that sounds interesting. What about camping on the Keys? I'm guessing rooms are expensive and I'd like to shake some winter blues and stay outside as much as possible.
Any one know of some good camping? From what I can tell the State Parks fill up a year in advance and I figured just pitching a tent anywhere would get you thrown in jail. Anyone been to Flamingo and is it worth the side trip? On the way home I may take a half loop
of Okeechobee lake eastern side. Any advice would be appreciated. I have no itinerary just 9 days on the bike before I have to be back at work.
