"BIKETOBERFEST" YA BAby!~

"BIKETOBERFEST" YA Baby!~

Even though getting together with the old gang from Buffalo Wild wings last night was fun, it kinda sucked having to drive there in the truck, but yet I didn't mind too much as I was able to have a couple of beers something I normally don't do while out on the bike as I do not and will not operate my bike under the influence of Alcohol, other things questionable? maybe but I will never drink and drive, being on my bike this time of year is dangerous enough without throwing that factor in.
Now don't get me wrong, if you feel you can have a few beers and get on your scooter and blast, then that's up to you, just know that the check books closed and I'm done sending flowers and showing up to funerals where, people I care about who didn't heed the words of "Hey better sit a while" you're kinda messed up. Unfortunately we've all been in that situation, why back in 2010, someone who was and I repeat was, very close to me showed up for my Birthday at Buffalo Wild Wings, well needless to say the birthday boy left totally straight, and the person who had the most fun caused the most damage on Birthday that night because she wouldn't quit drinking and insisted she was leaving, we should of all just left her leave that night, as it wasn't but four months later she crashed and nearly died. Sometimes you've got to wonder why people get on this sudden hell bent for destruction thing and they're life spins out of control as they do. We all would love to be there for those people, and be their safety net, but then I've come to realize that you can't save them all (Philip), so don't even try. So I've locked down our finances, and I'm done preaching to the fools that have to carry on like there is no tomorrow, good luck and "GOD" bless you all. We've kept you alive once, next time find another sucker.

Now onto the Biketoberfest announcement, I was hoping this year to get over to Biketoberfest, and a good friend of mine who owns Sun Viking lodge over in Daytona, says she's still has rooms available so if any of you were looking for a great clean well secured hotel right on the beach to park both you and your scooter, then check the link posted below and call Barbara and her staff and they'll take great care of you.

We will not be attending this year due to damages on my back, which are making life pretty crappy right now, even after a series of three injections directly into the spine at the problematic area, there is still no relief therefore, no long boat riding, local cruises only, and short blasts to the store are the only thing I'm up for now a days, maybe once the old back gets  to feeling better, or even better fixed freaking properly maybe this time? then I can get some ride time in. Until then, I'll keep keeping the dream alive, by going over and cleaning my bike off daily hoping to get back on her one day?

If you're heading over to Daytona this weekend, please be very careful, it's "BLUE HAIR" season and that's cause enough for alarm.
