Welcome to February, you can almost feel the spring in the air and the roar of motorcycle heading to Daytona for Bike Week!

February is going to be an awesome month starting of course with the Dawg Fights 2 at Gil Dawg in Prot Richey on Feb. 3rd, and my mom’s birthday, happy birthday mama, love ya! We have 15+ fights set up for this evening and we are opening the doors at 3pm to get all the fights in. If you haven’t bought a ticket, you are missing out as this is going to be a fun night of fights. The weekend after the Dawg Fights 2 is of course the Super Bowl!!! KC vs SF – wait haven’t we seen this before recently? Oh Well, my bet is they show Taylor Swift 15 times during the game. Either way I hope I hit some boxes and maybe win the bike from Bert’s Barracuda Harley.

Bike Week is right around the corner also and is March 1st thru the 10th in Daytona Beach. Full Throttle has 6 bike shows in 7 days this year. We start with our Kickoff Bike Show at Teddy Morse Harley-Davidson. The Iron Goddess group will also be there helping us with our ladies’ class as they are there promoting a big show they have coming up in April. We have no shows on Sunday or Monday, we are going to be able to get out and ride a little and do the famous loop and see some of the sights.

Then Tuesday and Wednesday we will be at Winghouse on International Drive by the Speedway doing a bike show there on each day. They have 2 for Tuesday drinks

and then all you can eat boneless wings on Wednesday!

We will get some of the Wing house girls out there to help us pick their favorite bikes and do some photos on bikes also. Then comes our biggest two days of Bike Week. Thursday March 7th we have two shows on the same day. During the day we will be at Cabbage Patch hosting the Budweiser Bagger Showdown sponsored by The Fran Haasch Law Group, then Thursday night starting at 8pm we will be at The Grandview Live hosing our down and dirty bike show and audio show. This is a fun evening where you get into the club for free if you enter the bike show and we do our awards around 1am. Then the next Morning March 8th we are up bright and early to set up for THE WORLD FAMOUS BOARDWALK BIKE SHOW. We are looking to get 200+ bikes in this show this year and set a record for this event! I want everyone to enter their bikes, even if you have never entered a bike in a show before.

We will have 17+ classes and your bike will fit into one of them. We have trophies for first through third in each class and tons of other specialty trophies we hand out.

We will be playing music, videoing each bike entered, and we also have The Fireball models coming that day to take pictures on Bikes.

This will be our third issue where we are completely digital and read exclusively online. We hope you are enjoying this new format, and we want everyone to understand that this was the direction we had to move in due to the increasing price of paper and the high printing costs. We can reach more people through social media and boosted posts than ever before. We are also filming a video Podcast every Wednesday and talking with people in the motorcycle world here in Florida and beyond.

If you would like to be on our live podcast and you have something to talk about, please contact us and we will schedule you in. Be safe, be smart, don’t drink and ride and I will see you in Daytona Beach at Bike Week!

What if I told you you can have your own stable of multiple bikes at your disposal for a fraction of the cost of owning?

That’s right! Gone are the days when you had to giveaway your first born to rent a Harley and…gone are the days when it was impossible to rent a speed bike.

This story is very interesting. The other day I was enjoying dinner at a friend’s place. Festivities were going and in came a female rider in full gear.

Turns out she rented a Suzuki GSX 750 for about $40/day for 7 days. She had just gone through some hardship and needed to feel free again blowing off some steam.

This really triggered my interest to investigate.

I reached out to entrepreneur founder and CEO of Riders Share. Texas born Guillermo Cornejo built his career in used cars, auto loans, risks mediation...

Guillermo has an MBA from UCLA Anderson School of Management and he also has a BS and a BA Economics Political Science Minor in International Relations from the Texas Christian University. He also has a certificate from the Institute for 22

Comparative Political and Economic Systems from Georgetown University. This guy is a techy and a biker too and he put both to use and…you and I can benefit from it. Guillermo speaks Spanish and French. When he is not behind his desk or riding a bike, he likes to surf. Trust me. Go to www.riders-share.com and see for yourself. You can rent pretty much any bike under the sky. Traditional motorcycle rental options are expensive and slow, offering limited variety, inflexible insurance and lackluster rescheduling or cancellation policies. Riders Share is different. Riders Share is motorcycle rentals done right. Sign up, find a ride, and book it, all within 5 minutes. If you already have a motorcycle, you can now profit from your passion! Guillermo tells me it is pretty common to make $800/ month from his platform.

Some people Guillermo tells me have nearly 20 bikes in their fleet renting them out full time.
