The weather has been outstanding. I have been to a number of venues, and rode a bunch of bikes.

The fastest factory bike that I rode was the Harley FXSR 114ci. It was lots faster then the Indian 116 Stage III Dark Horse. The smoothest was an Indian Scout. It was a dream to ride.

This year Indian just cuts you loose like Harley for the demo rides. They have lots of bikes and there is almost no waiting. The others have fewer bikes and there are safety riders. You can get there in the morning and set up a riding schedule for the day. Then show up 10 minutes before the ride for the briefing and be on your way.

Today and tonight is the Flat Track races. I will be heading down this afternoon for the race. I think after today I am done. There are a lot of events I missed, but I am getting worn out. Too much to do and see.

If you are near Daytona or need a winter break this is the place to be.
