Default Daytona Beach ???

Hey. Thought I'd see if anyone knew of places around Daytona Beach to go cruising. I'm driving from Knoxville to Atlanta, picking up a friend, driving down with about 40 other people and hittin' the beach.

I'm in college so I'm kinda looking for some trouble to get into while on spring break.

Any speed traps? Do police have problems with say two guys rollin' round in arrestmeRED vette with more than 2 occupants?

Wait a minute.. You are going to Daytona Beach with 40 of your friends. You are going during Daytona Bike Week. And you are looking for trouble? Am I missing something here?

Here, let me help you.

Go to a one of the bars that has about 100 bikes at it.
Get your friends to move about 20 of the bikes.
Park your Corvette where those bikes used to be.
Go into the bar.
Yell out that you can out-drink anyone in the bar and that if you are wearing leather, then you must be from San Francisco.
When they approach you, tell them it was your buddy next to you.
Buy a bottle of Yager-monster.
Enjoy.

This sounds rather promising. I didn't know Ecklers was around there. I'll definately hafta check that out.

Trip to the track is more than calling my name. Sounds like a good photo opportunity.

Thanks for the ideas!

Haha. A couple of people we're meeting up with have bikes there so hopefully I can fit in. That's not necessarily the trouble I'm lookin' to get into though :nono:

:iagree: This is more along the lines of my kinda trouble

Watch it in Tifton and Forsyth.

Also extra State Troopers are in the metro Atlanta area.

Are you going down 75 cutting across 10 to 95?

Have a fun trip :smash: :party: :smash:

We came up from Tampa to Atlanta via I-75 last weekend and saw three state troopers all day. Saw more I-D-10-T's last weekend than police. Over-aggressive drivers in SUVs and trucks that love to tailgate at 90 or better.

Safe trip down and then :party: like hell.

Eckler's is an hour south of Daytona. If you're still around the weekend of March 19-21, go to the track for the Spring Daytona Rod Show....an awesome event.

Yah that's the plan right now. I read on the forum something about an Atlanta speed trap. I definately don't wanna lose my license. I hear in GA if you're 15 over they can yank your license. :eek:

Thanks for the heads up. I'll definately watch my 6 throughout the trip.

Be aware that I-95 is under construction from just south of Jacksonville to the Flagler County line (about 45 miles!) and they work speedtraps in the construction zone (double fines).

Have fun, be careful, and don't forget to wear your raincoat... :D

I sure do miss college!
