Today is the day we've been waiting for - for what seems like eternity....it's the official start of Biketoberfest® 2008! If last night was any indication of what's in store we'll be having a great weekend of fun and festivities! Today is just a beautiful day too, sunshine, blue sky's a little coolness in the air. On my way to work I saw a few bikers out and about and of course all the tents are up, the parking spaces have been prepared for bikes and the smell of food is waffing through the air. I swear I almost had a chocolate covered cheesecake for breakfast this morning it looked so good. Folks are smiling, drinking coffee, talking about last night and making their plans for what's ahead this weekend. As for me I plan on skipping on out of this office by noon (have to make sure everythings ok out there right?) and can't wait to report back on the day's events.

Oh and there's still plenty of time to head on over and have some fun yourself. We hear from our favorite forecaster (and country singer) Jim Van Fleet that it's going to be a ultra nice weekend. So head on out! Check the web site booking engine or PDF for hotels too. I browsed through it yesterday and there's still great rooms at great prices. Is it noon yet?....until later....
