Best seats in
the house for the Daytona 200–Bike Week 2010
We have been invited again to join the Pro Road race folks
at the Daytona 200 to volunteer our time as tire marshals.
There will be rotating teams this year and plenty of time
to see some cool road racing. It’s a real cool job in the
Road Racing pits and like last year, we get to see the
fastest bikes on 2 wheels.
If you would
like to volunteer and get a 3 day credential, infield
parking, lunch along with a cool marshal “T” contact Alex
Moroz at
moroz50a@hotmail.com (cell 315 415 6478) no later than
Feb 25th as there are a limited number of spots
for the 3 days
(Wed ~ March 3rd, Thursday ~ March 4th and Friday
