I forgot about JB's fish hut. Great food and a nice ride to get there also.

When rideing down Beach Street, be sure and wave. We have a house rented there, we'll wave back atcha.

Ditto on reservations. I thought I would try it one yr. without making reserv. and ended up almost in St. Augustine before I found a room. Also stay away from the real cheap rooms because the sheets are guaranteed to be stuck together.

Dont forget Boot Hill Saloon. JB's is some great eats and another place we hit was 44 Grill (think thats the name).

Yea, Cabbage Patch, Iron Horse, and The Boot Hill Saloon is a given. Haven't been there since 2002 but wouldn't mind going back.

Plenty of good places to go. Make sure you hit the racetrack and mainstreet. Take a big coat and alot of money. Pretty dang cold this past year. Have fun and don't be in a rush, take time to take it all in.

I was planing on going to sturgis in 2011 but after I watched a show last nite you can't have apes that are over your shoulder. I'm a D.A.B so I really don't feel like getting harassed so maybe switching up and doing Daytona do they have silly *** laws like that over there
