By LuLu County by County is the first of a monthly article we will feature. We hope to bring you interesting spots to visit in each county of our wonderful and diverse state. As bikers, we love to explore the ribbons of highway that take us on our adventures. We often have time limits that cause us to miss interesting biker friendly bars, local great food spots and beautiful roads to ride. Thunder Roads used questionaires that locals filled out to name their favorite places to drink, eat and ride. We tried to hit as many of these spots as possible to give you a taste of the county. We will keep the monthly articles archived on our new website, thunderroadsflorida.com, and extra photos will be posted there too. Read the rest of this entry »

Guys if you want to celebrate "National Condom Day" don't forget to stop at the jewelry, flower, candy and Hallmark stores. I was bitten by the Love Bug once and had extreme heart palpitations, but I found the cure "MARRIAGE". The bug must have been a Tsetse Fly because the marriage lasted as long as its life span and she had sleeping disease during most of it. Read the rest of this entry »
