Bikes, locks & trail details
The Tesla setup has onboard locking for up to two bikes. A Kuat bolt-on expansion for three or four bikes is optional; it still needs ordering and fit/capacity confirmation. Locks reduce risk but do not guarantee against theft. Extra bikes inside the car depend on luggage and capacity.
Key Largo is more spread out, so it remains optional for a bike day. The Heritage Trail is segmented; check closures and road conditions before riding. The park currently posts a Nov. 17 closure at MM 71–71.5.
Current trail notice ↗Interested adults can also consider a Rodriguez Cigar Factory history/craft visit.
Rodriguez map ↗Optional light trailer: verify the exact car, hitch, rental terms and tow rating, plus resort storage approval. Rack/trailer combinations may conflict.

WHERE’S CAPT. EDDIE?
Nearby, doing what I love.
Usually at the live lobster stand at Lobster Walk in Lower Matecumbe, or out on GO3D boat, home and resort scanning work. Check with me before dropping by.
The open calendar & family time
This is now a GOEV pilot and scouting trip. A Keys resort could also become a setting for a small GO3D/family get-together if the venue and guests agree. A party venue is not booked.
Eddie is unavailable Nov. 19–23. Ask about other dates.
Choose your own pace and privacy. Any shared vehicle arrangement needs rental-company and insurer approval.
Made for the GOEV way of life.
Custom GOEV bikes, racks, paddleboards, camp bedding, chairs, electric coolers and service-center packages.
Future gear & spring 2027 camp target
These are designs in development, not ready-to-buy products. The Tesla camp package is still in design/manufacturing and has not been purchased. Spring 2027 is the target, subject to readiness; it is not part of this trip.
