How many of you guys are planning on going?

Wanna try to convene at a place like we did at Martin's in Flagler Beach for lunch/dinner last year?

I have Daytona on our schedule but I started this winter with the idea of getting a routine medical tune up and it's turning into a major overhaul that is going to mess up my spring riding plans.  ::( Looking forward to Martin's and we can take the car. If we go, and right now that's a big if, we will camp at  http://www.volusia.org/services/community-services/parks-recreation-and-culture/parks-and-trails/park-facilities-and-locations/ecological-nature-parks/lake-monroe-park.stml AKA "Camp Como"   :BEER:

Martin's at Flagler beach sounds good. What day/time? There is also the Pantheon in Daytona, Monday the 9th. Not sure of the time.

If I end up making it down I'll gladly meet up at Martin's, best prime rib on earth in my opinion. Might take one of the Geese or my Waterbuffalo, the 2-stroke smoke is always fun to piss of the general crowd on Main Street at night. And if I make it I'll make it a point to head to camp Carlo.

I'm planning on coming to  Camp Carlo. Have not yet gotten a solid plan for the trip. May ride,  may Truck 1/2 way or maybe all the way. Motogoro is hoping to join me but he's a working stiff still, so has limited time.
Priority right now is to finish up my 2 bathrooms remodeling here in Tennessee. Snowed, iced in at the moment. Contractors can't get up the mountain to set the last tile and grout it.

Doesn't look like I'll make it.  Seeing that WERA has taken over the 200 has taken away half the motivation.  I'll miss Camp Carlo and lunch with y'all.

Oh come on, John.  Good lord.

Who cares about the boring 200 race anyway!  Come visit wif your friends, eat and be merry!  That's the important part! Do it while you can!

was planning on going to Daytona this year, but my orthopaedic surgeon can fit me in for wrist surgery on the 4th (carpal tunnel), which makes heading down on the 7th probably a no go...

Good luck to you.  I am scheduled to have torn ligaments in my right thumb surgically repaired on Feb. 24, so I'll be in a cast for Bike Week.  Travel by car; no day rides; no test-riding the new bikes?  I dunno.  OTOH, there is Supercross!  And flat track!  (The 200?  Zzzzzzzzz.)

I also am having health issues so we will be missing Daytona but we don't want to miss Martins and we are also traveling by car.  I made motel reservations for Wednesday and Thursday nights. That's a hint.  Hint, hint.  ;D  ;D  ;D  :BEER:

We will post details of the Martin's dinner soon.

Last year at Martin's for lunch on Thursday:

Martin's on Thursday-









Hey, that's Dale in the front left. I have not seen him since he left the Michigan Rally a few years ago and had a "get off" of his T-3 while returning to Florida. How is he doing?

2013 Suzuki TU250X
2009 Buell Ulysses XT
2009 Kawasaki Super Sherpa
2008 Honda Goldwing
1992 Honda Nighthawk


"What is that"?
  "It is a Italian Enigmatic Poly-cylinder dual sport".
"Huh"?
  "A Moto Guzzi Quota".

Will the distinguished gentleman seated at the head of the table and his lovely wife be joining again? 

Also, don't forget the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance takes place on the 15th of March...$80 for advanced tickets is pricey, but if you've never been you should check it out.  Bike parking right out front is not a problem.  Also the Celtic festival in St. Augie is that weekend too.

Remember me ? I am planning on attending the Pantheon dinner on Monday the 9th and that prime rib at Martin's looks awfully good might make that also. No , I am not riding and and still bike-less and have no plans on getting one. Just would like to see some old friends.

Not only do we remember you, but your picture has been on Moto Guzzi Dairy Products cartons for a year or two as "missing in action".   ("They said you was hung!")

There will be a lot of people glad to see you!

Okay, it's set. Just like last year.  

Martin's at Flagler beach on THURSDAY, MARCH 12  AT 12:00 NOON.

If you are fairly certain you will be there, please post it so we can get an idea of a headcount.  I always like giving them advance notice for saving a table.


Wow,  Bike Week is only about 2 weeks away! Sheeze

With all the bad weather around, if things are nice there, people will be glad for some respite at Bike Week.

A few people have mentioned the Celtic Festival in St. Augustine, March 13-15 this year.

http://celticstaugustine.com/

Most people think of Celtic culture (normally pron Keltic and Kelts) as being from the British Isles area but it covered a much wider area of Europe.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celts

It's a nice, medium-sized festival.
