I have always Loved Cedar Key, Florida so anything i get a chance to go I do. If you haven’t been to Cedar Key, Fl. you need to take a day trip. It is a very Quaint place and you can park your car and walk to just about anywhere. The seafood is great, Especially the Oysters. This is the Second year i went to cedar with the IBMC International Brotherhood of Motorcycle Campers. IBMC.org we had about 40 people at the camp out. People came from as far away as TN, NC, La, Ga, and of course all over Florida.
Cedar Key is a great location for riding. When you come into Cedar Key you pass through an area called Rosewood, Fl. Now their is a story that goes with this community. It was a dark day in 1923 for our state. if you are interested, here is a link to the Rosewood Massacre in 1923. http://www.blackpast.org/aah/rosewood-massacre-1923
About an Hour south of Cedar Key is Crystal River. This is another awesome area. This is home to some of the best Kayaking i have ever done. The Manatees are plentiful and they are beautiful creatures and the first time i saw one i couldn’t believe it. I equate it with seeing a Moose in Maine. Big but gentle creatures.
This was a great 4 day camp out and i got to see guys i haven’t seen since last year. I am already looking forward to next year.
