Daytona

Well as much as I hate crowds myself and 4 friends made the trip to daytona, left on Thursday a little over 580 miles one way, the weather was just about anything mother nature wanted to throw are way we had rain-high winds-sunshine, I met a few of the many nomad riders I saw, and I spread the word of the kawanow site to all. I road a little further south to vero beach so total trip ended up at 1660 miles. I have pic's and will try and post them this week sometime.
ride safe.

david, I parked my bike till Sunday because of the wicked rain and wind. One of the groups I ride with even cancelled their trip to Daytona on Saturday because of sustained winds. Over on our coast it was about 30 mph sustained.

In our neck of the woods, 30 mph is a calm day at times. One of my friends said that if you don't know how to drive in the wind out here you will never ride. ;)

coacha, your right about the winds on saturday I was glad to be riding a bike that is as heavy as the nomad, we rode by 2 crotch rockets that went down due to wind up to 40 mile gust. I will post picks soon they will have to be photo bucket .
ride safe.
