With Daytona Beach week being a little over a month away, there are many of us who are feeling very excited. Since Christmas morning, I have been counting down the days until I could don my new pair of riding glasses, hop onto my bike and head out on the road. But since I live in the northeast my bike hasn’t been out of the garage since early November. I can’t wait for the start of the 2012 bike season; in fact, I have spent the last two months just tinkering about with my bike getting it prepared.

I’ll be heading out on 8 March with a couple of friends and our ladies. I know for a fact that the first five hours are going to be really cold but I will be well prepared with my face mask, snow mobile suit and warm gloves. Once we turn off from Pennsylvania to Maryland we should be able to change into something a little more suited to the Daytona weather. And this is when I will be taking off the riding goggles and putting on my new riding glasses. I can’t wait.

I think that myself and my wife will actually move to Florida one of these years. That is another thing that I really can’t wait for. I’ve lived in the Northeast all my life, which is okay, but I can’t stand having such a short riding season. Riding all year round is something that I would prefer to be able to do. We will definitely only have one car when we finally leave the northeast. And only really bad weather is going to force us to actually use the car.

I’m assuming many of you reading this blog post are heading to Daytona next month as well. I would imagine that most of us will be looking forward to catching up with friends and telling a few stories. But there is bound to be a few who have passed on and we will miss them dearly. Either way it’s going to be another great season.

Just remember to ride safe and smart. And don’t forget your new riding glasses if you got a pair for Christmas!
