Default My summary on Bikeweek.

All & all it was a good time....BUT, THE WEATHER SUCKED ASS!!!

There were LOTS of bikes, more than I imagined would be there.

Main Street was CRAZY!
Thursday night was KICK ASS, Friday morning was nice, but about 2pm, the temp. dropped like 20* and rained the rest of the night. That was the first time I've ever rode or got cought in the rain. Big rain drops SUCK...uhhh, I mean HURT!
Friday night was okay on mainstreet, even though it was raining, there were still lots of people and bikes...ya know, it's hard to find a damn parking spot too!
I did something I said I wouldn't do...Needless to say, I didn't remember the ride back to the hotel.
Saturday morning, weather STILL SUCKED! Rain and more rain.
My buddies from Chi-town headed back and after watching the Weather Channel all morning, I decided to jet too.
Wise choice! Today, I talked to another buddy from here that stayed and he's cought in a BAD ASS rain storm!

I laughed at him and told him that the weather here is ideal and Clearwater Beach was even HOTTER!

Well, there it is....
Anyone else have any comments or stories??

Here's a shot of the rain delay when we took over a chevy dealership. Notice the wetness....

Me and a couple buddies went out there.
Got there Friday evening. Hung out, checked out the sights, Main street was pretty thick...ended up back in Orlando at a friend's hotel room for the night. Saturday we got up, got food and hit the strip again. INSANE on Saturday night! Lots of people! Good food, great music, and bad ass bikes. Had to end the night early due to ingestion of alcohol. Hit up Daytona USA to watch the races today, but they got rained out. We had a good infield spot, too. Have to try to get refunds on the $35 tickets. All in all we had a great time regardless of the weather.
