The Annual motorcycle ride of AAMGA members place Saturday, May 16, 2009 during the Association’s 83rd Annual Meeting in Boca Raton, FL. The following provides details for the ride, which will go through the some of the most scenic areas of the Florida that most visitors to the Sunshine State never get a chance to see or experience. Please pre-register and reserve your motorcycle on-line today. As in years past, the annual ride is open to every qualified and licensed motorcycle rider working for an AAMGA member; and passengers will also be welcomed.
 
Our Roadmaster for this year, Shawn Chaffin, Executive Vice President of SeaCoast Underwriters in Lake Mary, FL, has been hard at work to organize the trip and arrange for the motorcycle rentals with the nice folks at American Eagle Harley Rentals in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. The ride will last the entire day, and will be 170 miles roundtrip. We will ride through the Seminole Indian Reservation and the famed Alligator Alley. Not to give anything away, but here’s a photograph Shawn took of one of the areas we will be riding through. Be assured we will be making a fuel stop before coming up to this area! Thanks a lot Shawn…talk about a couple of unpleasant speed bumps!
