I'm finally going to do it.

I'm leaving flying in two years to start a shop in Florida. I've already started looking for an acre of land to build a shop and house. I'll be setting up on the I-4 corridor between DeLand and Lake Mary.

My race # will be 726 (the date we decided to move home) from now on.

I hope one of you guys will be my first customer. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif)

We'll have a Club meeting at Hooter's across from the track.

Forget the race tracks and Porsche shops. What about the important stuff.

Have they got any Mico-Breweries in that area? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif)

I'm familiar with the shops in Orlando, because I'm a native. I know Ron Zitza and the guys at Redbone. I've selected a location that won't step on any toes.

As for beer, I'll probably have to go back to making my own like I did before I moved to Albuquerque (from Orlando). We'll see. Maybe Orlando needs a Turtle Mountain Brewing Co. franchise for Luckie to manage. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif)


Here's the latest news: We're riding home on our bicycles! 23 days on the bikes and 1840 miles! It'll be a once-in-a-lifetime ride and I've already mapped the route. It should be fun to run a daily update thread here so you guys 'ride along'.

Oh, we're serious. If you're a cyclist, you would know what we're talking about.

The idea of a month off to pedal 1800 miles sounds like fun, so that's exactly what we're going to do. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

well i see you ignored my joke post so here is a real post

congrats, hopefully you do well.

as for the bike ride, it is doable, when in high school i was going to do a cross country ride. i had sponsors and all, and was going to be in a group of about 50 with support vehicles. but about 1 week before the ride my bike was stolen.

we would have had it easy, nothing to carry but fluids. are you planning on hotels stays or camping
