time is counting down hooray!!!!

I'll find out next week if we are taking my Tahoe or Johnny Bucks extended F-150 with a bike in the back. My bro is leaving this weekend. I am sad to say my bro won't be on his Blackbird. He traded it in for a ZX-14. The brothers Blackbird ride no more. 63,000 miles later and he'd had enough. He told me he lost a lotta sleep after the sale. He can always borrow mine.

Hell wonn, we're not doing much better down here, just minus the snow. It's been friggin cold down here, wind chills below freezing in the AM's & only around 50 in the afternoons

. This damn sure ain't Florida weather!

Sorry to hear your bro got rid of his Bird for a 14 doc,

docsevicz · 02-10-2010, 10:19 PM

I talked w/Johnny tonite. It looks like we will be taking the Tahoe. My bro is leaving on the 21st. I talked w/him tonite too. I think he is accepting the new bike now with the attitude of it was time to move on. His bike is at www.brocktoncycle.com under previously owned vehicles. I'm going skiing next week with the wife and kids then finishing the week w/Auntie snowmobiling in the Allagash of Maine. Its gonna be a fun month!

Well guys, the weather outlook for Bike Week isn't lookin too good, back to normal for the next week to 10 days, 70's/50's, then just in time for Bike Week they're calling for more cold fronts\storms to roll thru, 50's/30's...sorry, nothin I can do

bigwonnie · 02-21-2010, 8:28 PM

flblackbird · 02-22-2010, 1:13 PM

4 more days!

flblackbird · 02-22-2010, 1:41 PM

Daytona 200 schedule

bigwonnie · 02-22-2010, 2:30 PM

There is an approaching low pressure system this week but there is an high pressure system right behind it. You know what that means sunny days will be here soon.

Shorebird · 02-22-2010, 7:13 PM

flbackbird posted the AMA schedule. Don't forget there is good racing this weekend. Plus on Monday & Tuesday there is vintage races. A side valve hand shifter on the banks is a real handful and very fun to watch.

flblackbird · 02-24-2010, 8:05 PM

Sorry guys, calling for rain Sat & next Tues

docsevicz · 02-25-2010, 1:25 PM

We got cold rain and snow for tomorrow. I'm really excited for the Spring thing at the track on Thursday. Two laps around the track and a t-shirt plus a party for $40 all to benefit a charity. I wonder if triple digit speeds will get you in trouble?

bigwonnie · 02-25-2010, 1:38 PM

Weather looks better after tuesday 60's and sun better than 40's any day.

Pace lap speed=45mph around the track brotha

docsevicz · 02-25-2010, 2:24 PM

45 MPH won't get me anywhere near the outer banks.

It will still be loads of fun!

docsevicz · 02-26-2010, 6:56 PM
