  a Savage based bike that will look like a 60's era British single and be suitable for an old fart to ride.  

I'm wanting to see that !  Cool


Something like this.....but with a long/flat seat and saddlebags and a rack, and I will keep the front disc brake.

I don't think I'd bring a target pistol , so lets hope Bad Wolf has a good one.   You know I get to target shoot all I want every day ... but I still like to see stuff blow-up !  Grin

Surprise, we are ONE WEEK out now and the weather forecasts should be verging on really really accurate now.


Participants --- MM, Oldfeller, BadWolf, Ed L.

Tent has a spot still open, so we have room for one more.

It is a roving trip, several days at the Daytona Beach Area - several days at the Dupris Area - and a day arriving and a day leaving up at the north end at Ocean Pond Area.



CURRENT WEATHER PREDICTION IS FOR FLAWLESS BEAUTIFUL WEATHER
If there is any minor drizzle predicted, it is at a location and day we aren't going to be there.




Meet up area by Lake City Florida, near Jacksonville on drive in day.    Date THURSDAY March 8th

Meet up at America's Best Inn, 339 southwest Commerce Street (2nd building down from Ruby Tuesday, same side of the road)

https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Lynchburg,+TN/America's+Best+Inn,+339+SW+Comm...

https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/lake-city-fl/32055/month/332305?monyr=3/01/...

NOTE:  we are not staying here, we are taking a hotel on ride in day
https://freecampsites.net/#!96&query=sitedetails




Daytona Beach area (Bike Week)   Dates March 9th-14th    (variable according to rain forecast and interest in the Bike Week events)    MM has reservations at a campground where we will stay for a day or three.    

http://bikeweekcampground.com/

https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/daytona-beach-fl/32114/month/328173?monyr=3...





Down by DuPuis / Indiantown (main camping place)     We are going exploring and shooting with BadWolf.   Here is an overview of the campground.

https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/indiantown-fl/34956/month/15185_pc?monyr=3/...    



Wink

These perfectly beautiful weather results are really just too perfectly good  to help from getting all excited over, but they are there for your viewing pleasure ......     We know they shift some during the final week and become much more specific for days and amounts of precipitation during that last week.

I got a Big Scary Surprise last Thursday morning.  

I woke up so dizzy I couldn't walk or stand ,   had a fever of 104.2

I just got out of the Hospital Saturday afternoon.  

Come to find out Cellulitus had settled into my right leg and the infection / fever had me so swimmi headed could't even stand with out hanging on to something ... it was quit Scarry from my point of view...

So

Now I'm on Medication , the Fever is staying down , the dizzness is only 1/2 of what it was , and my leg is only about 1/2 the size it was Saturday.    At this rate : I might be able to get my pants on tomorrow .  
I figure I can heal up as well in Florida as I could if I stayed in Tn.    As long as I can get started Thursday Morning.    I'll just have to leave them swimmie headed drugs here !

Look mike, those infections are nothing to shrug off.
if it turns out to be flesh eating bacteria you can loose the leg.
Do what the doc says.

MM:  I am an enabler....sometimes good - sometimes not so good.

One possibility is for you to load the bike up in the trailer and get the bike down to FL while you ride on 4 wheels in comfort - then ride the bike down there if your leg is better and the drugs are depleted.

Dude, you are sick.    You can't even put your pants on over your swollen leg ..... trust me, you dude are trip disabled.

Trip is cancelled now you can do what the doctor says without any forms of conflicts.    Take your drugs, rest, get better, get well.  

We will catch another trip some other time.  

I will take care of notifying the Hotel and BadWolf, you take care of getting what you can back out of the campground at Daytona.    We both need to clear the reserves at Dupris to keep our names clean as likely we will want to go back there again. (this is done for both of us)
