Anyone going to Bike Week besides me and buzzard53?

BJs has been the traditional dinner rendezvous point on the second Friday (the 15th this year).
Anyone game?

FYI, the weekend before bike week's official kick off, DeLand (about 25-30 minutes from Daytona) has a nice main street MC event with lots of bikes & friendly bikers. Very kick back & EZ going.

Will you be there?
That timing unfortunately, doesn't work for me.

yep, we'll be @ Deland. Vintage boat races @ Tavares weekend of bike week, I will not miss those. Might make Daytona during the week. A little over a hour's ride.

I won't be able to do the Deland event but will certainly try to join up on the Friday evening RTE.
I'm riding down and back from NC so weather will play a big role in the days I'm actually in Fla.

The good news is my bike is ready to go.
Fresh oil/final drive change, 19" Slipstream windshield, back rest and luggage rack installed.

Bad news is the weather forecast. For the time I have available I can't get out of NC or get back without 2 days of rain each way.
I've encountered this situation on two other Daytona trips and I'm not looking forward the prospects of doing it again. Nothing more to prove or gain by riding in a cold downpour for 8-10 hours. May opt to jump in the cage for a quick round trip Sunday-Wednesday

I don't get off work till 6:00 myself, would take me an hour to get there to be there by 7:00 , maybe next year I can make it. This thing call work not being nice to me this year, coworkers out on emergency-etc, 1st time conflict in over 30 plus years. BTW they should bring back the monthly RTE's , one Sunday a month for us Central Florida Riders

Is anyone besides me going to be there? I mean, I can have fun all by myself, but if y'all wanted it to be later, I wish you would have suggested an alternate time!

I won't be there this year. The meeting time too early for me. I'd love to see you guys since other commitments made me miss Cherokee. Where and when is the next Rally?

What a great time for two friends!
Steve joined me and we had a blast at supper then going to Main Street to people watch.
Always great to see Steve!
