A Sunday of cycling with pals
This sunny Sunday I met up with a group of my motorcycling pals for a great ride. The main reason for the ride was to get together with our great pal Rob who moved to Georgia a couple years ago. Rob has a sweet Kawasaki KLR 650 which he rode down from the Atlanta area this weekend so he could ride with us :-)
I ended up covering just shy of 290 miles in central Florida. The group of bikes was diverse. We had 2 Harley Davidsons, 2 Ducatis, 1 Kawasaki, 1 Triumph and 1 Moto Guzzi.
We headed out about 8:30 a.m. and took a scenic route through the Ocala National Forest north toward our lunch destination, the Outback Crab Shack. This place is out in the boonies with nothing much else around it. The food is great and the ride there is well worth it.
The route up was a lot of fun with lots of interesting roads. On the way back we headed to the coast and road the A1A coastal hwy for several miles before darting back toward I-95 for a final 60 mile power blast back home.

About Me
- Kid Guzzi
- I was born in New Jersey, not all that far from the mighty Atlantic Ocean and moved to Nebraska when I was a wee lad of about 5 years old. I grew up in Papillion, NE and Omaha, NE and lived there most of my life. Since December, 2005 I have mostly lived in central Florida, not far from Daytona Beach and the still mighty Atlantic Ocean.
