Baggers to the Keys Photo Gallery
Ride along with MotorcycleUSA's buddy Neale Bayly as he heads for the southernmost tip of the continental U.S.
Land ho! Unless Bayly's got a pair of water skis hidden somewhere, this is as far south as he can go in the continental U.S.
The splendor of the Keys was only maginified by the the freedom of cruising the countryside on a Harley.
Photographer Tom Riles blends his artistry to the magic of the Keys nightlife.
The Keys are a mecca for artisans and eclectic faire.
Miller and Bayly don't look to worried about being shanghaied and forced to work out their days aboard a shrimp boat.
Bayly left the icy grip of a North Carolina winter behind for the warm, inviting waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
If Bayly gets the opportunity to travel to the Keys again, maybe next time he'll remember his fishing pole.
Doesn't everybody in Key West have a submersible in their front yard?
Rife with tales of gun smuggling from Cuba and autographed photos of Jimmy Buffet, Bayly and Miller stopped by the Hogfish Bar at the recommendations of a local.
A small cantina, an outdoor patio and locals to hobnob with. Throw in a couple of sweet Harleys and call it paradise.
Bayly spends the last day of his journey filled with contentment and contemplation.
After signing the requisite forms and receiving a short demo, Bayly had the saddlebags packed and hit the road on the rental Harley.
The duo admires the famous seven-mile bridge before traversing the gateway to the Keys.
After checking into the Wyndham Casa Marina, Bayly headed out to Duval Street to check out the nightlife scene.
So where do we go from here?
With its history of harboring gunrunners, mercs, bootleggers and gamblers, Bayly and Miller fit right in.
You can almost hear Jimmy Buffet's 'Margaritaville' coming out of the cantina.
End of the line, boys. Next stop, Cuba. Say hello to Fidel and bring us back some cigars, will ya?
With sunsets like this, Bayly pondered the feasibility of trading North Carolina winters for perennial sunshine.
The local shops are as full of kitsch and color as the flora and fauna of the Keys themselves.
