I’ve all the time been informed Key West measured 3 miles extensive x 5 miles lengthy at its widest factors making a most journey of 16 miles round.

Our plan was to take the outermost oceanfront seawall route until in any other case obstructed selecting then the closest roads to the ocean.
Amazingly it took only one hour 22 minutes to finish our journey pulling over on the end line for an oceanfront celebratory festivity that included ham & cheese sandwiches, pork rinds and naturally two ICE COLD Bud Lights chilled to a physique soothing perfection! 🙂
Since not having an odometer for our bikes, the query of how far we rode was nonetheless unanswered. We merely loaded up our bikes, set our automotive’s journey odometer to zero and adopted the identical path we’d peddled ending at precisely 10.7 miles circumference across the complete island!
There’s no comparability, biking round Key West is 10 instances extra satisfying for sightseeing than being in a automotive! Tweet That 🙂
