all these posts and not one mention of the real sights!

 

That's the only problem I had in Daytona...

I had a hard time focusing on the road... When you see a half dozen smoking hot babes in thong bikinis piloting busas down the road it can be hard to keep from staring

Go have fun, you will not regret it. Bike Week and Biketoberfest are incredible.

 

Jesus, could you post any smaller pictures? I'm wearing my glasses and I still can't see a damn thing. Next time, get a bigger lens.

 

Damm... I need to take a ride south!!

 

March bike week hasn't really been my favorite, only because the weather is normally unpredictable (rain). As far as traffic goes, it never really to bad in my opinion and there are back roads to get around it. Just remember it is an air cooled bike and becareful of overheating your scoot.

Last but not least, stay out of the public lots. The highest rate of theft when I was going was in those lots. I'm a fan of parking on main street or the private lots and locking the bikes up. Two year ago when I was there I saw three people in the public pay lots that ahd there bike stolen.

Other than that go and enjoy, don't worry about the traffic. The scenery is great and the people all behave.

 

Check out this video, it will give u a pretty good idea of what to expect

Go and enjoy. I like Pub 44 as one of my favorites. WATCH for sand on the road, that can be a big, almost unseen hazard, especially the closer to the beach you get, but can be anywhere. If you don't go, you'll always be a newbie!! Have a safe ride.

 

Good point about the sand. Florida has sand on almost every corner. I'll never tear around an intersection corner (green light or not) just for concern of hitting a patch of sand. A lot of cars can't seem to stay within the lines, so their tires kick up sand when they cut the corner too short and it sprays on the road.

I'm more concerned about losing traction on sand than a wet road.

 

You will be fine.

 

nice call dude
