It was a great ride today. Good to see everyone. I have to say, we need to change BigGator's name to Rainman... RainingGator... or something with rain in it. I swear there was a dark rain cloud that followed us around most of the day. If was funny, as soon as I left Gator, they skies opened up....lol.

Just messing with you Gator... It was a great ride and thanks for letting me tag along. I really enjoyed it.

Great ride today! Thanks everyone for going with us! Good to see Wade, Wess, Harvey, Murph, Big Gator, HondaGal (Sherry), and a First for my wife Karyn to ride with the Florida Crew! We all made it home safe, dodged the rain all day.. Like Murph said the clouds were following Big Gator around all day. We dodged a big storm just south of Melbourne by stopping at a burger king and waiting it out.. Hope to see you all again soon!

I was looking at that storm as I tooled home from picking up a bottle vodka...hence my peeling off where I did...and was hoping ya'll stayed out of it. Thanks for being lead dog today. I had a lot of fun. You didn't see me grinning back there

Gator, thanks for the suggestion to ride today and the eateries. And you really should consider renting out your rain services to poor drought stricken countries LOL.

Gator, good to see you and and those I know and those I haven't met yet. Please don't expect me to remember names because I can't. Alright, Murph, Harv, Wade, but that's it. I guess in time I will.
Since Wade chases the cold, you have won the honor of the Rainman. Honestly, we didn't get but a few sprinkles but the big threat was always there by some of the soaked roads we passed. We must have just missed it all. Anyone notice during breakfast it was clear?? Hmmmmm.
As soon as I figure out how to add pictures Ill put them up. I got the picture to my album but can't get them to this post. I'm still learning.
Thank you and everyone for a great day.

I don't think so but I didn't see any airplanes. To busy trying to stay alive in that traffic.

I was pleasantly surprised to see I was able to get 45.62 mpg on Saturday...even with the 1st gear stop and go traffic in downtown Daytona.

Brian, were you able to replace your highway peg? I was a bit concerned when it decided to jump off your bike and try to get on mine LOL
