I left at 4PM and on the way back, I saw two accidents and a traffic stop. Some guy on a gray Katana? got pulled over by a Camero FHP. I know he got a ticket cause he was holding it in his hand.

Then a little further down, I saw a newer Black Gixxer 750 maybe or 1000 got into a wreck, possibly with a car. Not sure exactly what happened but the car had a messed up front and the bike still looked whole, except missing fairings. Wasn't many people around it, so I guess it got cleared up a little before I got there.

The worst accident, further down, it completely shut down I-4 in both directions. People were cutting across the median to find a different route. Not sure exactly what happened, but a helicopter was brought in to air lift somebody. After the helicopter left, cops finally let West bound traffic go and all I saw was two messed up cars, so I guess a fender bender between cars and no bikes involved.

It was a fun day, but I think the event was poorly coordinated. Shit took too long to happen. And things just started dragging a little. I left at 4PM and the Endo Comp. was still going on. They need to speed the events up a little better. How many times can we stare at a wheelie? I wanted to see the Tandem and Team events, but I didn't feel like staying anymore. Not a bad time though.

Minivan on it's roof!

Well we stopped by Lakeland hooters on the way back

Lots of scenery and various sundry things going on.... I really loved the fat nasty whore in a bikini on all fours on the asphalt in front of the orange / black yamaha's..... Fucking sick, lol.... all in all it was a good day.

I picked up a tank mount for the camera - wand had a little fun on the way home with it

All good until Clint's engine woes....

YEah I wasn't too impressed this year. And the no re-entry garbage is bullshit.

+1842573967389732 Couldn't have said it better myself. I've never even been to an event of that kind but I agree that it was extremely poorly coordinated. I was really looking forward to tandem stunts and never got to see any

I'm glad i left early around 2:30 because i missed all of the accidents and most of the traffic. I got bored and left. I thought it would have been better organized too. I still had fun.

WHat a great day.
27 bikes at the Crack House for Breakfast.
Another 18 at the 7-11.

We rolled there with 45 bikes!

I left before the wheelie comp was finished... has to get home.

Would of really liked to had stayed for the team and tandem stuff.

Hopefully someone got good pics.

All in all... I had a very good time.
