Every ride is different. None of them can be compared. Each one is unique with their own flair. Just go & you'll have a great time.

Bigger isn't always better. I didn't meet many people at Daytona bacause there were just so many there. I would assume that it is easier to get to know some people at a smaller ride. I'm going to try to go.

I actually enjoyed the x2travaganza ride better! Daytona was amazing fun and i'm definately going back next year. This ride is ALOT more laid back, and people are very friendly and you do get to know people better being a smaller ride!!

Like said above, every ride is different. I prefer the smaller rides where you actually get to talk to more people.

yeah... "you can talk to more people at a smaller ride".... that is statistically impossible.... How did you figure that out, BK???


I do like smaller rides too, but that statement is beyond stupid... Don't hate on success, we all made daytona big and it's not a bad thing for anyone involved.

I do want to come out, but it all depends on my job situation... I am not finding anything around here ans I'm getting kinda scared... Anyway, this ride is very tempting w/ the clear pristine water and nice beaches... Makes Daytona look pretty ghetto... How much is it to fly out there, I wonder?? I do not have a vehicle that will make it that far...

Enterprise is unlimited mileage within the state and is like $25-$35 per day for a small pick-up.

yea i called enteriprise and it was unlimited, it was for a fullsize truck, only thing they dont have towing packages on there trucks, so they would have to go in bed, or if they have the hole in bumper, put a ball on it, just got to be extra careful not to mess anything up with it,lol

Been there, done that. Had a tough time convincing them that the plastic coverplate for the hole was allready cut out when I picked it up, they finally gave in, but they were going to charge me like an extra $100 or something ridiculus.

:smokin: :party:

Lanier 2005 Only got to meet a handful of peeps, spread out all over the place, everybody stayed in the same groups they ride in at home.

Texas 2005 Smaller Group, spent more time with everybody that was there.

Daytona 2006 People everywhere, you may meet alot of people but you will not remember half, so many in a confined area. Alot going on.

Texas 2006 Same as 2005, you were there, everybody ate supper in Neils House, everybody hung out together.

Lanier 2006 See 2005.

Alatoona 2007 Not as many peeps as Lanier, but people were staying on both sides of the lake. Did not even see some people. (Missed getting to meet SJ Weber, was looking forward to seeing him)

Chickenbone 2008 - Got to see alot of people before Chick talked me into doing stupid rolls in really shallow water (hey Chick, you should have gotten that nurses phone number!).

Smith Lake 2008 - Got to see and meet just about everybody there (all 5 people that showed up!!!!! J/K)

So, in a nutshell, statistically you are going to meet more people and remember them more when the crowd is smaller 50 people vs when the crowd is 400 - 1000 people.


Oh, Nick, go back and look after last years Daytona, the year before that, I gave you props for putting on a hell of a ride. I dont dwell on petty B.S. like you seem to be doing with the saying "Dont hate". Nobody does them bigger.
You have taken the rides to the next level.

So, for me, Bigger is not always better.
