mobile to miami

Last november I did a ride from Mobile Alabama to miami and then to key west. I did the same route as the pensacola 1600 from Pensacola to Perry. After Perry the 1600 km rando route goes down us 27 but I continued through Mt Dora to Orlando. US 50 through Christmas and Titusville to cocoa beach and down A1A to Miami. and later to Key west and back. I did it touring style riding between hotels. Longest was 120 miles and shortest 50 miles. Highway 399 between Pensacola and Panama City beach was closed when I tried to ride it. I had to turn back and ride more than 10 miles to highway 98. On 98 there were closures and detours on the way because they were fixing small bridges. So when you ride this route let someone drive the route day or so before to check if the bridges are still closed and ask about 399 closures. About 10 miles before Mexico beach there is a military training area with a sign along the road about explosives. So I dont recommend walking off the road. If you have a flat there stay on the road fixing it. If you have time go to a oyster restaurant. Lot of them in this area. The road is usually good. No cracks in the pavement. In the area around 100 miles before Perry there are not many shops or gas stations. Found 1 extra small shop around 40 miles w of Perry not on maps. In this area mobile phone connection is scarce. But sometimes you can ask for wifi. Even on small restaurants. That is it. Enjoy the ride. I enjoyed it alot.
