 There
were a bunch of bikers the whole way down to Key West. Apparently they
biked from Miami to Mile Zero in Key West. |
 It's
all water under the bridge. |
 A
good view of Card Sound Road as it enters the Keys. We're essentially
heading east. |
 The
water comes pretty close to the road. And we're pretty much at sea
level here, too. |
 The
road is also CR 905, and it turns right to head back south. |
 Ocean
Reef is a private club, accessible through some historic/old roads.
Check
AARoads for that. But I went directly
for Key West. |
 The
road used to continue for a short time as a state road, but it has been
deleted from the maps-- and from the environment itself. |
 Nuther
biker on CR 905 SB. |
 More
bikers!!! Nearing the end of Card Sound Rd. |
 Eventually
we come to the end of the road and back to US 1. |
 I
took this picture because I haven't seen a 76 station in forever! |
 The
stoplight at US 1 and Card Sound Rd. The peeps in front of us waved to
every biker along the way. |
 Starting
out on US 1... again |
 It
is 4-lanes throughout Key Largo. |
 Apparently
there is a coral reef here. |
 Getting
more urban as we get into Key Largo the town. |
 At
Mile 99, we have 95 miles to Key West. |
 The
median gets wide and business spring up between the NB and SB lanes. |
 A
South US 1 shield. |
 Be
prepared to stop around the curve. |
 I
believe this is near Islamorada. |
 A
2-lane US 1 is very weird for me. I'm used to either a 6-lane urban
arterial or a 4-lane rural expressway. |
 This
drawbridge caused a big backup. All part of the fun! |
 See
what I mean about the traffic? |
 Starting
to get pretty around here! |
 Down
to 77 miles! |
 You
could probably walk right across this part of the bay. |
 Just
in case you forgot you were on US 1. |
 The
water is so much more vibrant in real life. Whew, it was pretty! |
 Coming
onto another key. |
 This
was a long bridge! |
 Marathon
is the halfway point in the keys. |
 Slight
bend in the road. |
 This
part of Marathon looks like any Florida town. |
