Daytona Beach week is now a little more than a month away much to the delight of thousands of us who plan to be there. Since Christmas morning, I have been counting down the days until I could don my new pair of riding glasses, hop on my sweet machine, and hit the road. The trouble with living in the northeast is that I have not been able to get my bike out since early November. So I have spent the past couple of months getting it ready for the new 2012 bike season and to be honest I just can't wait.
When 8 March comes around, myself, a few friends and our ladies will be heading out. I can guarantee you the first five hours will be brutal cold, but I'll be wearing a snow mobile suit, warm gloves, and a face mask. By the time Pennsylvania turns into Maryland we should be able to shed the heavy clothes and get into something a little more fitting of Daytona. And when that happens I will be taking off the goggles and putting the riding glasses on. I am living for that day.
I am planning to make a permanent move to Florida one of these days. That is another thing that I really can't wait for. I have lived in the northeast all my life and I actually like it here but the short riding season really gets me down. Riding all year round is something that I would prefer to be able to do. We will definitely only have one car when we finally leave the northeast. And only really bad weather is going to force us to actually use the car.
I'm sure that most of you who read this blog will be heading to Daytona next month as well. Most of us are looking forward to catching up with old friends and telling our favorite stories. But there is bound to be a few who have passed on and we will miss them dearly. Either way it's going to be another great season.
If you are heading out to Daytona after a break in the season, you should remember to be safe and sensible when you ride. And if your wife got you a new pair of riding glasses for Christmas, bring them with you!
