Oktoberfest 2009

Here are a selection of photographs from our first full day at Daytona Beach. Nursing Wild Turkey induced hangovers, we all missed breakfast and started the day late with a ride around Daytona Beach in convoy. Then across the road from our hotel around the Nascar International Speedway, we spent the an afternoon admiring the choppers and bars at the swapmeet in the Speedway grounds, before heading back to Main Street.

Final Roadtrip USA

2:51 am in Travel by Gaz

So, we’ve passed the 3 year point of owning the Harleys we bought for Route 66, and probably won’t be back to the US for an extended stay for another 3 or 4 years. Sniff.

Our buddy, Stoney, came over a couple of weeks ago to help us enjoy our farewell, final roadtrip before we sell the bikes and head back to SE Asia. We have had the time of our lives, and crammed so much into our 2500 mile ride across 5 states, that I’ll be posting the pictures gradually over the next week or two… So check back often for updates!!

The pictures below span the first 24 hours after our setting out from St. Petersburg to Daytona Beach for Oktoberfest 2009, via Orlando airport to collect Stoney…
