Getting around

This is more a travelling and planing blog so if you are looking for my daily life, you’ll have to look somewhere else :)

Key West to Everglades

Today has been ups and downs. I had to leave Key West early to manage to stay out of rain. That went well, I could always find a gas station to fins shelter. Some rain was really impressing, thunder etc. Then I had to spend 2 hours in Florida City to fix my GPS-problem. All this made me miss some attractions.

I am now starting to get to know my bike a little better. I feel more secure and manage for instance to do U-turns without looking to bad. And there has been some U-turns today. But U-turns are almost the only turns I make. The roads lack them completely.

If you know how I like to drive you will realize that this is not my kind og bike riding. But I now understand why my friend Kim makes funny faces when I want to drive a gravel road. Anyway, the Harley is very confortabe but my legs are too long. To stretch out I will move back on the passenger seat 🙂

But it is fan to drive!

This night I ended up in a small place in Everglades. I’m almost alone in the Hotel, it is totally of season. I don’t mind, the owners are nice and I ended up in the Hotel bar. The restaurant is closed so I had to drive 6 miles to the very famous (?) Iron Rhino

A very american bar where the local bikers come together. This night though, I was the only one with 2-wheel. I wanted something to eat and they had a lot to choose from as long it came with french fries. Most of all burgers, but I got a greek kebab kind of thing. The bartender went crazy as I told him I was from Sweden. Great he ment and said that his favourite music is Swedish. Nowadays that is very possible, Abba, Roxette, etc. But I didn’t know a single band. He is a metal fan…
