2009 Daytona Bike Week Planning

[jjsorkin]

OK Gang, Winter has set in and I am now relegated to riding my bikes around my neighborhood and doing some tinkering on my Dual Sport and my V-Strom on days that I am not riding.

Daytona Bike Week is about a month and half away and officially kicks off from 02/27/09 to 03/08/09.

Last year, few of us rode our bikes from Charlotte to Daytona and had a blast although due to weather, we did not attend most of the racing events. Hopefully, things will be better this year.

Of course, it goes without saying that only available lodging spots are campgrounds as most of the hotels were booked months ago. Last year David and I stayed at a local campground but we spoke about camping out at the Daytona infields this year unless someone has a local contact.

Who's in this year? Maybe we can all ride down together. Prepare to wear all your cold weather gear, electric vest are must have, when riding down and back.

Daytona Bike Week is one of my favorite events because you don't necessarily have to ride a Harley to enjoy this event as racing events alone from Daytona Supercross, Daytona 200, Supersport, Alligator Enduro, Flat Track and more make this a very worthwhile event to attend. Of Course, most of the manufacturer's also attend this event with all the new bikes, etc.

Let's start planning now and see where we are again about mid-February.

Thanks
Jon
