AMERICAN HONDA TO KICK OFF THE 2011 SOHC4 RELAY RALLY

YES GUYS, IT IS HAPPENING.

Saturday morning our leadoff rider madmtnmummey aka Wilbur will be meeting with American Honda in front of Daytona International Speedway for the OFFICIAL kickoff to our little ride. Photos and banner signing will be included.

Surprise Wilbur  ;) Just found out. More details to follow. 
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

   American Honda wants face time with us? Maybe this will lead to them making some of the parts we can't get anymore.

THAT.... IS.... COOL!!!
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

Also, if you check the maps, just South of Daytona you will find a place called "Wilbur By The Sea". They knew I was on my way!

Oh, by the way, I'm playing hooky tomorrow and going up to troll the infield at the speedway!
