Did they remove the little retainer wall around the buoy?

Last time I was there, you could only park long enough to get a picture and the little LEO would run ya off the site.

I was going to ask the same question on the retainer wall.
Also, you must have been there early cause usually there are a lot of people there so it makes it kind of hard to take a pic all by yourself and even harder to get the bike in there.

Did you photoshop the pic  :2funny: :evil:

Glad you guys made it back safe  :cooldude:

Great Pictures And I Am Glad You Got To Make The Trip On The Bikes Instead of The Cage. This Is One Of The Things On My Bucket List. I Have Lived In Florida All Of My Life And I Have Only Been There Once And It Was A Drive Through And Back Home. Maybe Next Time I Will Be Able To Relax And Enjoy The Scenery.

Looks like y'all had a great trip Rick. Glad you got there and back safe and sound. Kudos to Bill for helping you guys out. He's the best. I have done the ride on a bike twice, several times on 4 wheels and once on a boat from Fort Meyers to Key West. I love that town, wish it hadn't gotten so "sweet". Once in your life, you need to go in October...just saying!!
I still miss her.

Glad y'all got there and back safe and sound and the repurposed water pump became available thanks to Grumpy.  I guess my only comment would be "you only took two pictures?" We have only been there once, I think it was 1971 when I was in Miami working for Western Electric.  We drove down there on Sunday and I think everyone decided to leave that afternoon at the same time and we were getting passed on both sides.  Scary.  That was before the new bridges/highways were built.

The retaining wall is still there - We where there just after sunrise to get the bikes up and close.

All just in time before people started coming in droves.

I was in Marathon and rode down to Key West on the 27th,28th, and 29th. I probably passed you as you were headed in. it was beautiful. Only dodged a few rain clouds.
