    I`m glad it`s not just me who REALLY doesn`t like those wheels. Not even sure what I`d put them on?!

    At dealer meeting. They unveiled the V4 Tuono for the USA market, ddead sexy bike, should get a chance to ride today. They also showed the SRV850, new BV350 and new Stelvio. Demo rides and smart meetings today. Off to see the wizards...

    Good god, 4am Florida time is brutal early, especially being east a time zone and back and hour this weekend. I hate waking up early, expecually what my body thinks is 2am. Be home later barring any technical difficulties.

    Well good morning from the flight deck ladies and gentleman, this is your Captain, Berry Friendly, we got this little light on here in the cockpit that we need to have checked out, we need to head back to the gate, this shouldn't take too long.

    Right, I'm just waiting for Micah to post up some pictures and video one day about a "weekend project" he decided to do, "so, I've always wanted to build a pulse jet, just because...."

    So here comes a massive dump of pics from the trip to Miami and back for the USA dealer meeting. I am on a time crunch again today due to severe weather moving into the area and the need to get my car packed for the evening...but here goes. We shall start with the more generic photos of the location and the trip. I actually had some fun shooting out the window of the &#&...shocker, me of all people?
