Day 100 - The Final Day


Back on the bike for the final few miles to Miami where I will drop it off for shipping back to the UK.
However, before Karen and I fly home we will spend a few days of holiday time relaxing in Florida.
 
 
Not wanting to disappoint you after two days without, here are a couple of photos with my bike and the road.
 
 
 
At the shipping agent in Miami on day 100 of my trip after covering almost 16,000 miles from Alaska to Florida, the long way!
 
Now I must start writing up the real story of what happened so keep an eye on www.roadride.net for when the book will be released.
 
Thanks for following my journey.

Day 97

We left the hotel in Miami and headed off down to Key West via the more scenic route of the Card Sound Road and called in to Alabama Jacks Bar & Restaurant on the way before reaching the end point of my trip in Key West.

Day 95

Taking the Tamiami Trail (Hwy 41) from Naples to Miami today. A much more scenic road than one of the Interstates and I even got to see a couple of alligators when taking a detour of the 41.
 
Can you spot the monster?
 
 
Views from the Tamiami Trail...
 
 
 
But the best part of the day was meeting Karen at the hotel in Miami !
