Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!

Linda and I are new to motorcycles -- she's had her 2009 Honda Goldwing 1800 Trike since last April, and we bought my 2008 Yamaha V-Star 1300 in September. We've both taken the Motorcycle Safety Course, and consider ourselves safe riders.

Daytona Bike Week will be from February 28th through March 7th, 2010. We'll be riding down there for our first experience, and I thought I'd use this format to share our experience with our friends.

If this bores you, keep it to yourself -- I really don't care; you don't have to read it. If you enjoy the posts, let me know. I'll be posting pictures, and trying to capture as much of the experience as I can.

Do I seem excited by this trip? Actually, I am. I never thought I would enjoy riding as much as I have. I've ridden to work in 23° just to enjoy the ride home in mid-50's temperatures -- and took the long way home.

So, enjoy the site! I'll be posting irregularly until the trip, then I hope to post every day during the event, with lots of pics.

If you're going to be in Daytona, let us know!
