Dang! You guys have all the fun and sun in Florida. I'd be there if it wasn't for the 3K miles plus.:icon_doh:

I won't waste my time with anything involving Peggys' Coral or Born To Ride. That place is a dump.

Yup, it is a bit of a dump which is why I go there now and then. I used to go to the River's Edge all the time but since they cleaned it up and made it all respectable I rarely stop there. If I want to see families, kids, strollers and pets running around I'd go to Bike Week or the dealership. Peggy's does draw a different crowd sometimes.


As far as Born to Ride, I'm not a big fan of that. I was friends with Paul Allen from Full Throttle so if I had to choose (which I don't) I'd probably lean that way. It's just the old Beatles or Stones, Yankees or Red Sox, Budweiser or Miller thing.

I just don't get Born to Ride, it's the same garbage every week. And there's no riding unless its a "Charity" ride with the Latin group from around here. And have you ever tried to keep count of how many times they can say Born To Ride in a 30 minute show, LOL! My neighborhood group grew up riding dirt bikes along side Ron Gallettis' group over off John Moore road so I've known him for quite a while....

Couldn't have said it better. No matter which magazine or what event it's all about the brand and everything else is secondary. Neither book has a real big presence in Hillsborough County anymore. Everything is Pinellas and points beyond. And Geez, how many of those Latin guys are there??? Can the chapter really be that big or do they bus them in from out of town?:icon_shrug:

OK then. I'll be off in the morning.
