Well B wins! so we've been riding.

Friday we all met in Lake City as planned then rode country roads over to the Gulf of Mexico to Steinhatchee for lunch at Roy's on the wharf. 210 miles and had a great day. Then to Silver Springs where we stay 2 nights. Great weather. Sunny and mid 60's

Jeff, Ted and Heather and Stewart Bikes all packed and ready in Lake City.

Stewart found his Goldwing's hidden trunk well with the tools and manual in it.

Brent and Don on their way from Tallahassee, should be here in the next hour.

Bright Blue Sky, warm sunshine, a little cool but getting warmer.

Going to be a great ride.

Good thing the South Florida ride isn't today with the way the weather is (Thunderstorms all day). Should be great after today though. Have a good ride south.

Phil and I will be meeting up with you around 4 at the Sawgrass Rec park. Looking forward to the ride. Should be nice weather, like around the 70 degree temp for day time temps. Not trying to rub it in to the northern people (those north of Florida), but enjoy your temps while we enjoy 6 more weeks of sun and sand.

I guess Phil and I will be only ones riding and XS, but we are happy to represent.

[MaximPhil]

For all those going.have a good fun and safe ride. Also looking forward to seeing lots of pictures.

taken the gold wing this year.

yup, Wing has new tires, oil & filter just changed. Plus I can bring my 12 cup coffee maker and tote all the beach gear with ease. (You have enjoyed some of that strong coffee over the years) Actually I just ran out of time to work on the XS11. After 7K attending 3 rallies last year it needs some tlc. Carb cleaning, valve clearance, Wires dangling, petcock gaskets, I never put in the TC fuse box. Those Avons good for another 3K at least. Guess you won't be having Seafood Festival for your birthday this time around. Happy Birthday (in a couple days)

Was thinking about finally making this for once, but wife is having laser surgery on her eyes, so I'm sticking close to home this weekend. Have a fun, safe trip.

Yeah, was hoping we would have a surprise; that you might show up. It is a real fun trip. Fun in the sun while its snowing or at least lousy in most of the US. Hope the wife's surgery & recovery is quick. Those laser procedures, just amazing results.

Packing list

Sun screen, summer gloves.

Looking forward to this. Sunday 2-7 I will return home, so I will not see those joining at FL City. Gary & Johnathan, I will miss seeing you.

Last month, returning from Tallahassee, the sun was at my back the whole day. Backroads all the way, It was great. However, a chocolate bar on back of my bike melted.

I too will be riding an "other brand bike".
