Think I will give a miss this year, last years sucked hind teat.
If I didn't have someone who wanted to go look for gear, I'd do the same. But I'm not going expecting a whole lot.
If I recall correctly, the gear selection last year was f'ing dismal. You might be better off just going to a stealership and see if they have any show deals on.
Always ask why.

It was but Daytona was selling helmets at good prices.

I will probably go. If the weather improves...I may even insure my bike for the day.

I'm forced to ride in from the airport that day. So I hope the weather improves!

I ended up not going after all.

Instead I went to Manning Park to find snow. :)

I went. Got a great deal on a new 4 season jacket, found out info on custom seats and custom ear molds. So I'm happy I went.

That's great.

I spend all day M-F inside at a desk....I decided the outdoors would benefit me more. There is always next year.

What kind of jacket? Rubber Side Down?

The liner is "poo poo" but the outer jacket fits great.
