The phrase, "The family that cycles together, stays together," comes to mind. It's hard to say if this lot stayed together after burning up Key West like this:
Ooh look! Photographers. Similar to if not exactly riders.
I don't look like this when I perch on my Bonneville:
I've said it before and I'll say it again: utilitarian cycling is what sets Key west apart in a world dedicated to conspicuous consumption. Can't get much more dedicated to utilitarianism than cycling with a giant panda in the front basket.
I am old, inching up to my 54th birthday, but...really? Did we look this stupid in bell bottoms and long wavy hair? Be that as it may modern fashions are stupid in my considered, middle aged, opinion.
I nearly forgot we are supposed to display women in this feckless beach resort town. Here's one, enjoying a fresh breeze on a fine scooter. I like the way people just jump on a powered two wheeler and make them part of their southernmost lives.
And some people ride two up, like Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson, exploring the vast wastelands of Key West construction zones.
There's never a really good excuse not to get out and enjoy the world from two wheels.
