Question Bike Week 2019, Who's Going?

That's right... in 62 days (two months and two days), it will 'officially' be Bike Week 2019, the 78th anniversary.

It goes fast!

This might be a good time to get an early start in getting up a possible meet and greet for the forum members if so desired.

It also leaves plenty of time to plan something/anything and also in getting the word out early.

Would anyone be interested (anyone going that is), in being part of an HD Forums meet-up for this coming Bikeweek in Daytona Beach?

From the left, my brother, sister and myself at bike week last year.

My dad has a winter home in Deland, plus at 86 he has a trike, but only rides it when we're there so he doesn't wipe out joe citizen.

My brother had kneecap replacement last month, and if he's back in the saddle, then i'll be going

I'm always on the fence. Weather plays big factor since I ride and do not trailer. We left in the snow one year. Will not try that again!

I've been to the spring rally three times and the fall rally three times now. Usually alternate year to year. We'll see how it goes. Hopefully I can make the ride again since we missed both last year.

I love to demo bikes!!!!!!
