Daytona Bike Week 2008 - My R1, Eric and I attended

Bikeweek was a blast. Seeing Bikeland folks again, and especially meeting a few new ones (FBA and Vincent Hill and dsb.com folks!) was the highlight of the trip.

Loaded up and Ready the night before




1st night there (Thursday)


Good times with Bikeland folks (more showed up but we didn't get pics on Eric's camera)



Snuck into the TEAM HONDA dinner with AMA Road and Supercorss Racers (signed my helmet, signed posters of each of them and such, good times):


pic of Eric with Miguel and them


I don't care about pics with racers but I wanted a pic while in there with team HONDA


Thursday night late we snuck our bikes into the track:

I demo my own Yami, daily?








Friday hanging out we looked at a few bikes
ZX10


Blade


Ducati tent - Friend's of Erics were Duc owners and we drank Italian coffees and watched a Duc exhaust competition. The Yellow 996 belongs to one of Eric's friends.



Friday it was raining so we snuck into all the pit garages, Mickey kep me dry


Friday night I saw the best Motocross racing I have ever seen live, the track was a FL swamp!



Saturday we snuck past the guys checking for PRESS passes and hung out nwith the racers and pit crews.

(Here's a pic of Eric chit chatting with JOSH HAYES)




The Duc 848!




Hanging out with the team Kawi fella's




















Was great races and a great bike week!

Thanks Fish, Nothing compared to the great pics you posted in the Daytona 2008 Gallery, and I like the one of the R1 tank mod being poured on
