Daytona closing fast ....
Im still contemplating the trip. It would be my first long ride ...My thinking is that I may be biting off a little more then I can chew. The other concern is time. I would only have a few days because of whats going on at work ..
But I did hit the web looking for a place to stay ... what you guys and gals think of this place ?

I have been pricing Daytona and frankly it's just too expensive for me... plus I hear the rally has really lost some of it's luster... have you considered Myrtle Beach Rally in the spring? much easier ride for you cheaper and I have been to it... IT ROCKS just my 2 cents

I'll be in Daytona this coming weekend for the Daytona 500. Alot of bikes there then too. As far as bike week goes, it's a lot easier to trailer and then ride then to drive down there.At least you have a place to keep your bike over night if you have a closed trailer.

Fourwords... Over priced ... Over rated ...
If you are into carnivals, lines, scalpers, and inflated costs; you will have a blast.
I suggest going to a steel horse rally that has top knotch bands, stay at a first class hotel, where they will guard your bike, and pocket the difference that you would of spentat Daytona Bike Week. You can order a Boot Hill Saloon tee shirt online, look at your neighbors *******, and save the traffic hassles of Daytona. Cheers

I would recommend backing the trailer up to somethig solid and leaving it attached to your truck.
If you put Harleydecals all over it, you might as well have "come and get it" painted on the back.
That's why we trailer in in a Featherlight enclosed horse trailer with "Silver Creek Farm" lettered.
Cheers.
