Karen and I rode down to Jacksonville, Florida for the annual IBA party. This event is held every year during Bike Week. On the ride down, we stopped at the Stephen Foster State Park at the south entrance to the Okefenokee Swamp to hunt for gators.
This year the IBA hosted the Gator 1000, a 1,033 mile ride around the state of Florida which had to be completed in 24 hrs. In order to prove we actually did the ride, we had to stop and take mandatory pictures along the route. That morning, the IBA provided us with a rally flag that was required to be in all the pictures.
On the ride home, we stopped at the east entrance to the Okefenokee Swamp. We enjoyed a boat tour in the swamp. It was definitely a gator theme during the whole trip!
