Default Cruise to the NMRA's - this weekend in Bradenton

For those of you that have never been to the NMRA Spring Break Shootout in Bradenton, you owe it to yourself to go.

In my opionion, this is the best Mustang/Ford event in the area. There is a really large car show area, a swap meet, a vendors midway, and of course, kick a$$ racing! It makes for a great day (or weekend)!

Our mustang club (Stang Force) is a participating club this year, meaning we'll have reserved spots and a canopy set up in the car show area. While it's too late to get a reserved spot with us, you can still come and hang out with us! I'll be organizing a cruise that will be leaving from the Tampa area and heading down to Bradenton. We could easily meet up with any of the Orlando people on the way down (we have a couple guys coming from the Lakeland area already). Post here or PM me for info (or better yet, sign up at our site).

Even if you don't make it for the cruise, just stop by to say hi! Look for the Stang Force banner in the car show area! Hope to see some of you there!

Chris

man, I haven't been to bike week in years! The last time I went was 1996, which was also the last year that I owned a Harley. Have a good time!
