Fuell and Buell (price of gasoline has gone from $3.59 to $4.19 in 4 days for bikeweek)
In the March 1 press release, it states Buell's booth is 100 yards away from JP. See the 100 yard booth 001.JPG 002.JPG. In reality the booth is 100 to 300 feet north in the parking lot across the street from JP as seen in the 2 youtube (March 5) videos of the unveiling-dirt-bike-prototype.
The 100 yard booth is at the entry point 038.JPG for destination daytona(during bikeweek events) on a 2 lane road with a quarter mile of parking.
Erik Buell(no longer part of Buell Motorcycles) is now with Fuell.
Erik Buell press release(March 7) video is at least 1 year old. His interview is what the future is becoming on electric transportation.

700,000 dead people from COVID in the USA.
Before biketoberfest 2021, US covid deaths will be more than 700,000.
We are going to talk about a long-time photographer Horst from Germany. I have seen him photographing bikes for 20 years with his long telescopic lens. We spoke for the first time at biketoberfest 2019 before covid. His job is selling photos to magazines. Ted Smith has complained there are less and less magazines to put ads in to sell his tee-shirts.
Magazines print last a long time. You can see that in in1983publication-thebikeracing-ratsholeshow-2021_0313_112305_045.MP4 video below.
The internet only last as long as there is electricity. Papers and books last a long time.
You can find Horst here.

80th Anniversary of Daytona Bike Week, March 5-14, 2021.
The 80th anniversary of Bike Week is happening in Daytona Beach this March 5-14 with plans in place to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. City commissioners approved the Bike Week 2021 Private Property Master Plan submitted by the Daytona Beach Regional Chamber's Bike Week Festival Task Force at their Jan. 20 commission meeting. As part of the plan, outside vendors will be permitted. Businesses that are in the Master Plan (including some on Main Street) will have to limit capacity inside to 60% to help promote social distancing.
Note other events are starting a day early.
And now the videos.
About 95 percent of people not wearing masks.
This is about the biggest Bike Week in the last 10 years.
The boardwalk show was the biggest with over 120 bikes.
And now the videos.

August 27, 2020 �
Unfortunately after 31 years of publication, American Iron Magazine is a victim
of COVID and the damage it has done to the advertisers and their support of the
magazine.
After struggling with the financial issues of COVID, and the sudden collapse of
advertising support, we ran out of funds. The magazine has been shut down so
suddenly we didn't have time to print a last issue with our good-bye and thanks.
We are sorry to say there is no money left to refund subscribers and we are out
of options.
We want to thank everyone for the great support and say good bye. It's been a
great ride.
