Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
 
Hopefully this will find you enjoying the holiday season.
 
Our annual Key West Run on New Year’s Day is rapidly approaching.  Are you ready?
 
This year Doug Johnson will be leading the ride (Thanks Doug).
 
Those that live on the north side of town will meet January 1, 2009, at 6:45 a.m. in front of the Cracker Barrel Rest just east of I-75 and South of Sheridan Street.  Kickstands up at 7:00 a.m. sharp.  Please arrive with a full tank of gas and bring your Sun-Pass.  The first stop will be at the Shell Gas Station in Florida City around 8:00 a.m.
 
Those that live south can meet the club at the first stop around 8;00 a.m., see above.  The cub will pull in, gas up, and continue on south. Not sure yet whether we will take Card Sound or A1A all the way down.  If someone has been through this area recently, please let me know about the construction north of Key Largo.  If you live south and plan on meeting us, try to arrive no later then 7:45 a.m. and top your gas tank off.
 
We normally arrive in Key West just in time for lunch.  A nice stroll down Duval Street afterwards and soon it is time to start heading back north.  In the past we have dined anywhere from Margarittaville, Mystic Pizza, Hog’s Breath, and many more.
 
We start our journey northbound no later then 3:00 p.m. and return to Weston around 7:30p.m.
 
A word of advise:  don’t party too hard on New Year’s Eve (also referred to as Amateur Night).

Honda Hoot 2009 Canceled Due to Economic Uncertainty
12/19/08Torrance, CA: American Honda announced today that the 2008 Honda Hoot will bring to a close 15 years of what has been one of the most successful motorcycle rallies in history. Over the years, almost a quarter of a million guests attended the Honda Hoot which was born in the hills of Ashville North Carolina and eventually moved to Knoxville, Tennessee. At the first event, a little over 3000 attendees enjoyed what would grow to become one of the largest rallies in North America

The Hoot set new precedence for what a motorcycle rally should be, offering not only a wonderful opportunity to test ride new products but also focusing on family fun and growing the industry from the ground up. Based on the current economic crunch which may have significant impact on our customers during 2009, American Honda will take this time to seek out new and innovative ways to engage with our customers so that we can continue to ride together.

American Honda extends our deepest gratitude to the more than 1,300 volunteers who helped make the Honda Hoot a success and to all our event sponsors, to our two host cities, Knoxville, Tennessee and Asheville, North Carolina, and especially to all the good people who helped make the Hoot such a great event.
