With a couple of people lately talking about Key West trips, I have had my past trips there on my mind. If you have some "Key West Pictures" Post them up  Here I am at the Southernmost point. Here is Big Tom on the same trip with me.

Unfortunately I have not made it down to Florida on the Valk. Last time I was there was back in 2005. Navy Aviation Fuels A-school Pensacola Florida.

Does it count if ya' didn't get there on your Valk?  Cape Agulhas, the geographic southern tip of Africa:

September of '09... Sadly it was for work so I had very little time to see the beauty of the country, but what I saw was breathtaking...

Just took the trip on Jan 27th - 31st of this year, on the "Bucket Tour" with my Father-in-Law, Joe(Lucky_Duck) after his official retirement. Me on the left, Joe on the right  Just the bikes... I'm fairly certain we weren't supposed to pull them in that close, but nobody was around to tell us that   Joe "Lucky Duck" Cobb  A "Breakfast Burrito" at Amigos --- HIGHLY recommended (sorry for the size of the pic.. won't load large for some reason)And the absolute must while you're there...... Key Lime Pie from Old Town Mexican Cafe

There's a fine line between being a badass and jackass... and if you try too hard to be one, you sometimes wind up being the other.

On the Valk.  On the Rocket 3.  At Mel Fishers museum.  Best beach in the Keys. Only natural one as well.  Going back down in late April. Maybe we'll get a pic of Kim's Valkyrie at the Southernmost then.
