Are plans being made for a group ride to Daytona Bike Week? It seems like someone mentioned earlier about spending a day or two in Daytona and then going on down to Key West.

Yo...NCF6B, there are a LOT of F6B riders in NC. They might not be right next door to you, but NC is a small state, and it is easy to find an F6B rider there. As for the Daytona and Key West gathering of F6B riders, here is the most prominent link on this forum:

Lots of pages of info, and the main gathering of F6B riders starts on March 12th, and ends March 16th. Read on !

I cant wait to see the new bikes on the market. :041:

Gonna get pics of the new Honda Valkyrie, Indian Cheiftan, Moto Guzzi Calif, HD Street 750, ect
Then off to the circus tents to see some seats and other goodies for the F6B. :clap2:

The wife and I are gonna spend a day on the side of the road somewhere and just watch bikes go by. Probably just shy of Daytona in Bunnel area. Gonna snap a pic of every F6B or new Valkyrie that passes by. :popcorn:

Oh...Deer Slayer..the Younger......wherever you got your data info on Washington State only being 240 miles across...West to East, is in error.
Like...big error. To be more accurate, it is about 425 miles from West to East, and while that is still not as much length as NC has...the Tarheel State has been known to...stretch things a bit.

So, let's look at real statistics, like....land area and population. Washington State has a land area of 66,544 sq. miles, and a population of only 6.7 million peeps. Whereas North Carolina has a puny land area of only 48,711 sq. miles, and an overabundence of peeps to the tune of 9.5 million.

Those numbers equate to: Washington...100 peeps per sq. mile North Carolina....195 peeps per sq. mile.

Good thing neither of us live in New Jersey...1185 peeps per sq. mile

Take that, you...tarheelian :spank:

Ha! just had to pull your chain. Do you know where pull your chain phrase came from? I was told it came from the mines. The poop car was on rails, and the last thing one would want was to be pushed down the track whilst you were doing your business! Thus miners had a length of chain that was places around the wheel to prevent being pushed down the track. Thus pull the chain and off one would go. :yikes:

9 degrees and snow in OKC this morning, with a week to go before heading out, hoping for the weather to moderate.

Steve I really like the looks of that Mustang Seat, But not quite sure why you covered up Honda's beautiful Rotors. As for Dixie Cross Roads thanks for the invite. The wife and I went Today 03-02-14. Guess we missed you. Great minds think alike. Would have loved to have hooked up with you guys.It was a Beautiful day for a ride. The wife and I rode Blacks Wildlife Road, Haulover, to Oakhill and back south.......Dickie

I am really happy with the Mustang seat…does exactly what it said it would do…..the material in the center makes the seat non slip and the built in back rest is great !!!

Come on Dickie…the rotor covers are hot !!!…. I guess it does look like the “boot” the PoPo use but, oh well…I will leave them on till I tire of them and will sell them…I should have posted a RTE…sorry

On my handle bars is a GPS and CELL phone…. see pic….
