...and we stay at a place near the beach. There are several rental places nearby that offer shitty beach bikes, kayaks and other things that seem like a good idea before you try to ride them and realize it's going to be a struggle. They also have little gas scooters that don't require a motorcycle endorsement to ride, and Florida doesn't have a helmet law. I can't tell you how many tourists I have seen riding these things on busy streets without helmets and while wearing flip flops. Yes, flip flops. Not even those thick and grippy Adidas sandals that used to be popular. Flip flops.

When people that stupid die, I don't even feel sorry for their families.

It's insane on any two wheeled vehicle but an inexperienced person makes me more crazy. It's like you're not just a fool you're also ignorant.

Suncoast Porsche... Ok, what time do people normally show? I might be able to make that happen. My uncle owns Rossiter's Harley Davidson so he is hooking us up with a couple of bikes. Might make a nice morning ride!

You make it seem like this is strange behavior?

Don't come to Honolulu; you'll cringe at all the people riding in bikinis, bare feet, shirtless (guys), and no eye protection. And all of these might be happening on one scooter when two people are riding illegally. Most times I can't even decide which is the worst of the stupidity.

I frequently want to pull up beside them on my motorcycle and tell them to get off the road because they are too stupid to survive. In my dreams I may use a whip to aggressively make my point by whipping the offending bits of bare flesh to give them an idea of the road rash they are courting.

I feel like ignorance can be fixed. Foolish and stupid - not so much.

Just realized that Suncoast is right around the corner from me. I'll definitely be there man! I'll let you know what kind of bike I will be on here.

Awesome! Hopefully it'll be a decent show. It's a Porsche Audi VW dealer and they open up everything inside the showroom as well. Very diverse crowd. Usually like 8:30 is the best time to show up!
