Bubba Keys Bikefest

Again, Bubba does it best with his Keys Event! The highlight (except for the best end of the road party I have ever attended) was when Bubba rented three open air trolleys to take us on a tour of Key West. The picture above will give you an idea how much fun we had, as everyone was given a Flamingo Hat to wear. That's Bubba standing up in the right background, as we all shouted "It's All Good!" Our dinner that evening was at the Turtle Krawl Restaurant where we had e a choice of fish, pork or chicken. Then after dinner introduced me for my 80th Birthday, saying he wasn't going to tell my age, but he saw me lingering at the 80 mile marker.
Later after dinner all 120 of us strolled down to Duval Street with these silly hats and became the hit of the evening on Key West's busiest street chock full of tourist. Our Flamingo Hats were a big hit, some people offering $20 to $50 for one of our hats!
This event where I cycled just over 200 miles from Sunday to the next Saturday with one day layover in Key West was really a great ride. A little traffic where a bike path was missing was the only draw back, but the end of the road party made it all worth while.
Good job, Bubba!
