This past Saturday we loaded up the bike and headed to Daytona with some friends we've met over the past few months. The air was a crisp 60F when we rolled out of Old Town and headed down the road, but by the first stop it was warming up enough that we had to shed the first layer off. By the time we hit Daytona, about 2-1/2hr later, it was in the 80's(F) so we were down to shirt sleeves or sleeveless as it were.
The first stop was the famous Bruce Rossmeyer's Daytona Harley, in Ormond Beach. There were thousands of bikes/rider's there and all the well known custom shops were there showing off their latest designs. We also got to meet some celebrities
From there we headed over to the Iron Horse Saloon, a must see when in Daytona whether its Bike Week or not!
After that we decided to head to the hotel to get checked in and get out of the heat for a bit to chill and rest up for the next day down town at Daytona Beach.

Next day at Daytona BeachAfter spending a couple of hours with several more thousand bikers at Daytona Beach we stopped in to an oyster bar for lunch before hopping back on the bikes to head for home. It was a great ride, with surprisingly little traffic, and what a great weekend it turned out to be!

Those bikes look fun to ride, especially on a sunny day (storms scare me though).
Robert - Thanks for stopping by! I agree some of those were pretty neat designs, and yes it's not fun getting caught in a storm!
