Bummer, maybe I should've stuck around. But that heat and humidity was getting to my head. I didn't even know you could sign up for the gymkana, wasn't made clear on their website.

Yeah, I think you had to contact them in advance - the gymkhana riders were there from 9am to 6pm (they had some practice/training in the morning). I wanted to do it myself but I couldn't get there until 1 due to other commitments. I also missed out on the demo rides (they were fully booked when I got there), but it was still worth the trip.

HONDA PUT ON A GREAT SHOW.....it had something for ANYONE

big bikes for the young

small bike for ME .....for a change

Pro Matt Mcbride rippin gymkhana on the 250's

demos still continued in the rain which was great fun....but later..way too much rain came down

but there was other things to TEST DRIVE like a LAWNMOWER

or even a WATERPUMP

then we moved over to the clean ATV's

a little dirty

I was there. Arrived about noon, wasn't intending or expecting to ride anything. This was Honda's first attempt at this event. I have 2 friends that work at Head office, went with one of them, and the other is the National Sales Manager (motorcycle division). This event was his doing and i think it turned out great.

The location is perfect, easy to get to, TONS of parking and they have enough property there that this event can grow year after year.

There were not many vendors, but sometimes that is a good thing. If you are looking for gear or parts, this was NOT the place to be. If you wanted to see the HONDA 2012 full line then this event is for you.

They had lot girls handing out kickstand plates (Honda branded or course) to all those that rode and lots of friendly staff to direct and assist.

As stated in previous post: FREE posters, bags, water bottles (with a FREE water fill station), sunglasses and T-SHIRTS

The rain held off until about 1:45 and lasted a good 30 min (solid downpour). After that the events continued and the muddy just got muddier!

I will definetly be supporting this even the next time it comes around. Honda put in a lot of effort here and considering this was a free event you couldn't really have gone wrong
