Go to the Keys. Only one road down but tons of attractions on the way. Plus,you can do the Duval Crawl and leave the next day.

If you are looking for some FEMALE excitement DAYTONA has a lot of them and they are VERY freindly!! But be careful of the clubs with female dancers they all belong to a motorcycle clubs member! and it is not good for your health to grab or try to make a move on one, but I have not seen Bruce SOMEBODY ROTHCHILDS or something just mind blank, but he has opened the largest HARLEY DEALERSHIP in the world with bars ,hotels, Arlen Ness, and other builders bikes, Eddie Trotter, and a large J&P Store, also it even has a motorcycle mech. school, I think Wyetech or some thing of the sort, only thing I do not like about that is I here they let some students work on some of the bikes he sells there, and if he knows you are buying a new HARLEY when you fly in they pick you up in ther HELICOPTER and they have helo pad at dealership, and I think you get a free night our two in his swanky hotel, it is just something I would like to see! PURPLE HAZE.

If you guys do decide to come over to Daytona I'd be glad to be a tour guide for you. This is my neck of the swamps. There is a great run called the "Loop" that takes you through a park, along the Atlantic beach, and into Daytona (very scenic). I'd take you up to Bruce Rossmeyer's Harley Davidson dealership (60 acre compound) which is the new meca for all V-twins. Stores, food, drink, custom shops, and now a large new J&P Cycles store just opened. Rossmeyer's place is called "Destination Daytona" but it is actually in Ormond Beach.

You'd have to hit a weekend over here for meto beable to join you, but I'd be glad to ride along with ya and keep you out of the rip-off joints. (I just started a new job so I don't have any vacation days right now).

Either way, I'd be glad to help any way that I can.

P.S. Biketoberfest in Daytona runs from October 19th through the 21st. Always a blast. If your dates aren't fixed in stone for November, you may consider joining the party in October.
