Destin Question
 
While we are in Destin for the Worlds, are there scooters to rent like in Key West? Is that the normal means of getting around there?

Good deal! That is the way my hubby and I like to get around at the races. Thanks. Do you know if any of the rental places would be willing to give OSO a discount or a good deal?

I guess my membership was due, I had no idea, I got no message and I was able to see the pics. Strange. I renewed my membership but I don't know when my PMs will be unlocked. I sent you an email.

Just be very careful. That main drag through there is 4 lane and people drive like it is an interstate highway.

It will probably be TOO cold for scooters and with a front a week that far north in the state itīll probably be wet also. :p

Jeeze, now I am having seconds thoughts about getting a scooter. What is the temps like this time of year there?

This week is 70s during the day 50s at night :cool:

Re: Destin Question
 
Hard to tell until you get there.
It was cool with lows in 40īs the other day and highs in high 60īs-low 70īs.
The forecast for the next 10 days shows lows around 50 and nothing higher than 78. Long range forecast like that leave a lot of room for change either way the farther out they are.

Weather is why I'm going to key west - rather see fewer boats in warmer weather + nothing going faster than 15 mph on Duval St. :drink:

That is where we usually go but this year Gordo is racing in Destin so that is where we are headed.
