I live in this god forsaken town.. it's going to be hell when Thunder Beach kicks off. So many cagers that just DO NOT pay attention. Working for the fire department, we constantly hear about bikers going down over the radio and its heart wrenching. Be safe whatever you do.

By the way, for anyone who hasn't come to Thunder Beach before, make your way out to Mexico Beach. It's one of the few places you can cruise and actually SEE the beach still. Peaceful and beautiful ride.

See you guys in a few weeks.. good luck and be safe!

I lived in Panama City for 7 months back in 1993 when I went through the Navy diving and salvage training school. I haven't been back since. I can't wait to get there. I had some good times there back when I was a 25 year old kid.

Leave a few days early! Why not hit Leesburg (another good rally) for the 25th ~ 27th. Good riding and friendly people until the local government screws that up also. Just a thought.

Rode the beach down there on Sunday and PACKED with tourists and the last of the Spring Breakers hitting the area. I'm ready myself and lucky it is only a 2 hour ride.
