Welcome To The Sunshine State. Maybe We Can Arrange A Ride Up The East Coast From Titusville North Along The Intercoastal Waterway, And Do The Loop In Ormond Beach. If Anyone Has A Suggestion On A Route Or A Specific Day Let Me / Us Know,
Bert.

Oh gees! I think I mentioned (last year) that you guys should head a little inland and do either 3 Bananas restaurant in Crecent City or go just a few miles West and do Shrimp R Us in Welaka.
Let me know if your loop from Ormond takes you around this way and you will probably see another Valk sneak up on ya'! Would love to meet you!

Hey Pappy,Get A Route Together And We Will Join In! I Thought That Since They Have To Start In Titusville, About 1-1/2 Hours South That That Would Be A Good Ride With Some Of Us Heading To Titusville And Doing The Loop. I Am Definitely In For A Trip To Shrimp "R' Us. |

Hey Chrome. This weekend just 3 hrs south of you in Hollywood FL there is a Canadian Festival where you can experience Canadian culture, music and food. The wife and I are going to ride up and check it out. Could be good for a laugh. Molson Canadian and poutine, eh!

Hi All Thanx for the very warm welcome. Just wished the weather was abit warmer but still not having to shovel snow from the driveway like my 2 sons are. Feel real bad about that. Hoping to do a group ride soon. Most days are open but will be going to Winter Haven to celebrate my folks "60TH" at the end of the month. Will be in touch with MP and Dougger. Going shopping with Sue today in Vero Beach. Happy Trails Adrian  |

Hello Adrian,
Nice to see you and Sue are down here again. Not sure about this Saturday yet, but I would love to share some wind with you and some of the others again. I have not seen anything firmed up by anyone yet. Post up if you get something together.
Lot's of great places to ride to, and Saturday it should be around 70 (or so the "experts" say anyway.
Pete

CP and I went thru Eustis twice on tuesday! We were going up to have lunch at the Exiter (sp) cafe just east of Astor. Really like their seafood! Rained like heck, and drenched us! Fine welcome to FL! LOL And, then we found out they are closed on Tuesdays!  We are staying at RV Resort just south of Dade City, so are not far from you. MP |

Hi MP Good talking the other day. Haven't heard anything but will talk to Doug tomorrow. If not we will get some ride time in. Can always "meet in the middle" for a meal and a ride.
Sue went shopping by herself for afew hours today and I got to play on 95. It felt great.
Going tonight to see a space launch at the Cape at 9PM. Saw one last year and looking forward to this one.
Talk tomorrow Adrian

MP Hey MP,That Is Essex Seafood.We Rode and Ate Lunch Together With Dougger, Chrome and His Wife And A Few Local Valkers Last Year When They Were Here. It Is One Of My Favorite Seafood Restaurants. Not Only Are They Closed On Tuesday, They Only Accept Cash, No Credit or Debit. Ride Safe, Bert |

We have eaten there several times when we came down for the Daytona 500 for three years. We just love the food. The breading is great. Love it. Will have to get up there on a NON-Tuesday!  MP |

Adrian:
I will plan on heading over your way in the AM. Hopefully warms up a little earlier! LOL
Plan on getting there 9:30, 10 AM. If some here in FL come up with a get together and ride, that will be GREAT! If not, we can head out to lunch and a ride together.
PM me with ideas and your address to get to your motel. I believe you said it was on 50?
