Going to Florida with Trinity.
Hopefully we will be leaving on monday afternoon for Florida. Going to visit my friend in Baker near Destin. Trin has been very good, keeps saying she wants to go see the ocean. So by jimmy we will. Justin and Meg have a extra R6 to ride for me, he has a Gsxr 1000 too. So we will get some ride time, some ocean time, some fishing time, bbq time, and it will be fun.
Its cheaper by 140$ to rent a car and drive it with fuel, than to drive my truck so nissan versa or kia rio it is. I have it reserved already. WoooT!!! Trin starts school tuesday, we will be back sunday night.Its going to be fun.

Re: Going to Florida with Trinity.
You deserve a break, have fun. The beaches around Destin are great. White sand, great beaches, although they did get hit pretty hard from the hurricane a while back. Probably recovered by now, shouldn't see too much of the aftermath. So Trinity has never seen the ocean? Wow. Technically, the Gulf isn't one of the oceans, but close enough I guess. Still big waves, salty water, big enough to get sea sick.
Renting cars are fun. You can abuse the crap out of it. I'll never buy a used rental car, because I know there are a bunch of people such as myself who drive it to the ground. One time while I was out on tour, I rented a car, got to the gig, got out, and some guy sais "That has to be a rental" because the guy saw the way I drove it in. Hard turns, screaching tires.

Re: Going to Florida with Trinity.
pics of said doughnuts
if you get a front wheel drive you should try tray sliding. Put a fast food try under each rear wheel put the e-brake on and start whipping doughnuts in a parkinglot it will spin like nothin else...or so ive heard

Re: Going to Florida with Trinity.
Have a great time Steve. Beautiful beaches along the gulf coast, stayed in Pensecola beach and Panama city during a couple of trips to the US and had a great time.
I'm sure you and Trin will enjoy yourselves. Have fun and post lots of pics.
