Heading off to Indy on Thursday for the Red Bull Moto GP at the storied Indy Motorspeedway. No bikes this year; piling into the van to make getting to Indianapolis that much more bearable. If you've ever riden there on a bike, you know what I am talking about. It's a butt ugly ride from Madison south; it's always hot, and there is only so much corn a guy can appreciate for 600 miles. This year we've got a few GP newbies including Little Timmy (aka Race Bannon); Mohawk Boy and Cole. Sure, we'll miss the ride around the track on the bikes, but we are going more for convenience.It's a pain to lug Aerostich's, helmets and boots to the check-in when you are parked three miles away down the backstretch. Plus, I gotta put that new cooler - advertised to hold a whooping 90 cans of beer -that the Fair Marie picked up at Target to good use. Should be a busy weekend chock full o'events and we are looking not only to the races, but scoring as much free swag as possible, and don't forget the shots with the umbrella babes. And as a further plus, the forecast for Indy looks very nice. Mid 80s and sun forecast for Thursday to Sunday.
