On vacation in Florida for a few more days visiting friends. I would like to meet up with some fellow buelligans (mainly Treadmarks) and have a drink and talk Buells and stuff.
Drop me a PM : )

I am in Melbourne at the moment. Its in the middle but on the atlantic coast. Its about a half hour drive from Kennedy space center.

I am all healed up and good as new. The foot feels fine, didn't need any PT and I'm ready to ride again as soon as I get my replacement. How are you doing? Did you fix the bike yet?

Froggy, if you over this way (Ocala/Gainsville) let me know we can go grab a or two.

FYI Gator HD in Gainsville has a 1125R broke in and last I heard you could Demo it.

glad to hear your doing better. i really hope you can get a bike soon and get back to what your definately good at. they totalled out the bike and if i fixed it up, the wouldn't insure it again, so we got an 08 nightster instead. the daughter has it down there in tampa. if you want to go over to the west coast and spend a few days or what ever, just let me know. the kids are taking care of the house over there so there's an extra bed. my daughter likes to go out and have a good time, so you wound't be board and depending what night you got there, there's usually something going on. i did get my m2 out of the shop before i went to work over in greenville sc so at least i'm pretty darn happy with that. my cell phone # is on the RAN. call anytime. and have fun, even if the roads are boring down there. good to hear from you.

Dang Mike, car still MIA?? I figured their joy ride would be over and you'd have it back by now.

Big crowd last night. Diversified bunch of bikes too.

What bike(s) do you have now Dora?

I was wondering about the SVO portion of your screen name. Are you a Fox body fanatic? I had a high 12 Fairmont wagon that was a complete blast.

Sorry to hear about the 5.0. I'm hoping for the best but they never found mine...

also sorry to hear about the loss, my brother in law at a converible 5.0 some years back and just stock, it is a fun car to drive. i would have deserved a speeding ticket if i got caught when i borrowed it one weekend.

its not just "daytona" - its watching friends race on the 2 weekends around bike week! i'm not even sure that i can get that time off yet though...

since GA and FL are both so far from CA, it may be hard to make the events : ( now.....CA, UT, NV, OR events....are close!!! and places like CO are much closer!

I second the Orlando crew. Good people, nice relaxed atmosphere and aluminum beer bottles.

Aluminum beer bottles can be just as dangerous as glass. Ever been hit by one? Scratch that, ever been hit by a full unopened one?

Not an aluminum one. Full glass one, felt real good and the scar is pretty cool too. Hadn't seen an aluminum beer bottle till then.

Thanks for the praise on the aluminum bottles Rich. You can't buy those in stores - they are only available to bars, etc.

Barnie's is trendy!!!!
