Each February Micah and I load up and travel to Leesburg for one of my favorite events. Known by the biker community for their great rally in the spring, they do Mardi Gras with equal success. We ride over for the day, although the street party doesn’t get into full swing until around 7pm when the parade begins. I love the stilt walkers and the folks that dress up in the garish boas and face paint. Being from Pensacola I love Mardi Gras and have even been part of the “Crewe of the Silver Slipper” back in the day. This is a nice ride from just about anywhere in the state and although the debauchery isn’t nearly as risqué as New Orleans…it is still a fun street party!
