not to rain on your parade....but.... there are so many folks drinking there and then riding it is a wonder only 18 not 180 die there each year.

the roads are straight here in FL

I live 60 miles from Daytona.... nice coastal rides but so many nicer places to ride....

be safe and ride :rockon:

PS bike week in 2010 is feb 26th to March 7th.... you are going thru Salt lake that is a great time to ski there not ride -----it is winter then

The trip I took to Daytona with my parents and girlfriend, we rode through Daytona. A lot of bikes, but not my thing.

To be honest, and I dont mean to be a complete ass hole about this but it combines and sells the two things that should never ever under any circumstance be combined.

Alcohol and Motorcycles.

Just like Miller Lite sponsering the Harley Davidson 105 anniversary. Im sorry its just stupid.

Maybe its just that is wrong, or the fact that while riding through Dayton we were nearly hit by a group of Choppers that decided they were on the wrong side of the road to make the turn they wanted to make. The completely cut us off and my parents went into a slide to avoid them.

The squids (not wearing lids) laughed it off.

Sorry not my cup of tea. Id rather ride.

I live in the Daytona area, I have no clue what the person was talking about with all the deaths. In 2009 there where 5 deaths & 2 of them was a couple that walked out in front of a truch in Ormand beach. With the influx of a million or so people, that is amazing. NOT!!! that any death is good, but it isn't a very deadly event!

There are tons of parties & drinking but a lot of people camp out at The cabbage patch they drink there & stay there other stay on A1A & walk to Main St. I'm sure there are people that drink and drive, but that happens everyday across the crountry!
So come on down & have a blast!
