Re: DAYTONA BIKE WEEK '09

There is an endless supply of places to stay. You may want to consider whether it's important to be on the beach or if you want to be closer to somewhere like the speedway, etc. If you do stay on the beach or anywhere for that matter, you may want to check parking availabilities. Some places on the ...

Re: DAYTONA BIKE WEEK '09

Chris,

Looks like our good rides up here (NC) will have to wait 'til after Daytona. Got the chopper in FL until then.

I tried to email you a bit ago but your server kicked it back. I'll try again. Got the pics of J and they're awesome.

Elliot, How could you shave nearly 100 pounds off a V8 chopper? That just seems nearly impossible to me. I agree that David Ward is a serious troublemaker. He has only cost me 50 grand so far but is still trying to convince me to buy a chopper bike. He called me about your bike a while back and I w...
