How do you top off a great week in Daytona? How about taking a Saturday
night off and hanging out on the Jim Beam party bus with country music
superstars Montgomery Gentry.
For those of you who are familiar with the Buffalo Chip campground in
Sturgis, you'll be pleased to hear that they have setup a Buffalo Chip at
the Daytona Speedway during bike week. This year the Saturday night
headliners at the "Chip" were Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry and
as usual they rocked the house!
We caught up with Eddie and Troy about 2 hours before the show and had a
chance to talk with them about their love for bikes and how it has
influenced their music and their careers. Troy was immediately drawn to our
old-school Teacher and Eddie went straight for the Black Vertebreaker.
Between the cowboy hat and the his full length duster, Eddie looked ready to
ride into the sunset!
