Bikers Welcome

From “TJ”

Happy New Year everybody! Here we go, rolling into 2025. It’s unbelievable that the 1st quarter of the 21st century is almost behind us. I remember being at one of my best friend’s houses for a party on NYE 2020 and we were talking about how time had flown so fast to date (I was 41). We also laughed about how we would be over 65 years old and on social security in 2025.

It seemed like an eternity away that night, but here we are. These past 25 years passed by like a blur. One thing that hasn’t changed is that I love to ride motorcycles. I did the math, and on all 5 of the bikes I’ve owned this century, I’ve logged about 210,000 miles. To most people that’s a lot, to others not so much, but that’s what I’ve been able to manage. I feel like I might have at least another 100,000 in me LOL, who knows? But, as long as I can hold it up, I’ll be riding it!

I have some national rallies on the radar this year that will move the odometer, and if I’m going, I’m riding. As far as the business at hand, the winter and spring rally calendar in Florida is packed full of the usual big ones. Cotee River, Thunder by the Bay, Daytona Bike Week, Leesburg Bike Festival, Thunder Beach are all awesome. Then there are so many anniversary parties, individual 1 day bike shows and events to keep you in the saddle. Get on your bikes and ride. That’s what we do! Check the calendar pages inside for all the dates you need to know. If you’re not at 210,000 yet, come and catch me!!

See ya on the road,
T.J.
