I wandered if it was a bike crash that shut I4 East bound down. I got to the detour around 11:00 headed over to the speedway. Good crowd at the speedway today. Left and went to Destination. It took about an hour to drive the 13 miles.

Every time somebody posts about going to a rally, at least one person (often more) will explain why they hate rallies, gatherings, parties, crowds, live music, pretty girls, laughter, sunshine, or happiness.

You could make a post about unlimited, consequence-free coitus, and somebody will post about how it's miserable. 😂

I understand that. I was a state correction officer for 26 years and have been riding H-D for many years so I'm not really naive. We're not a couple Gold Wing riders stopping in for ice cream. But what happened that day should not have.
Is the pic in your avatar you? I ask because I saw it floating around on Facebook in some random post last week. Wondered if someone stole from here.

We did a 250 mile ride Friday out of DB out around Tavares.weather was great lots of riders all around the state. Didn't try to hit Main St till 8 or so and traffic sucked. DBPD had every street blocked of 3-4 blocks each way of Main. We headed back norh .Dont know what poop was trying to accomplish but didn't work for me. I'd rather be at norh side anyway. Beaver Dam continues to be the best bang for the buck.
There is a red seafood trailer ,Boston Seafood set up across the street from Iron Horse that is friggin awesome . Grilled shrimp with chili lime sauce and the lobster rolls were the beer I've had in forever.
Got a lot of miles in but looks like rain coming in an hour or two. All in all good food,great riding and getting to hang with the Busted Bagger Gang out of Pa was what I needed.Bike Week is what you make out of it every year. Been doing it for 40 years off and on and pretty much enjoy the trip. Will post up pics when I get home.
