Well, if you ever find yourself in Missouri beware the area around Auxvasse on Highway 54. They are notorious for their overzealous enforecment on the highway. A town of a couple hundred, they extended their city limits when the highway bypass was built. They employ off-duty cops from other nearby jurisdictions to help cover their little money-maker (the highway). |

yeah your right about bike week traffic, i always take riverside to pine cone at addison which dumps you out right at saddle jacks just a tad south of destination. |

Pokinatcha Your Buell is tight. Did you get the black powder coat done locally? How much did the job set you back? |

Another highly twisty in the Daytona area: start lat 29.409113, lon -81.119270 end lat 29.401725, lon -81.113616 Runs by the swamp. Had to stop once cause a gator was sunning himself on the road. He did not want to move so I went around him. Lots of rare birds to see. Cops have been staking it out lately due people preforming the turns at speeds too high. Ride safe!
