I am planning to go for a couple days. I live near by so it's not really a big deal for me to go. Just stay out of city limits. The helmet law is gone anyway so it doesn't matter. The cops won't bother you as long as your not sitting there revving up and playing around. The whole stink of it was to stop the other bike week held there memorial day week. Those are the ones that messed it up for everybody. They were always disrespectful to the businesses and the law. I am referring to what is called the black bike week. Alot of businesses had started closing there doors for that period of time. So much the the naacp asked them to boycott MB in protest of it. That is exactly what they wanted anyway, but it didn't happen and so the new laws followed. It was not really aimed at us, but we felt the blunt of it also. Felt I should explain a little on that situation. Alot of people don't know about the black bike week they have there and the troubles involved with it.

Stay thirsty my friends.

BBW conflicted with the Memorial day weekend begining of the family beach season.
What they should of proposed was to move BBW to maybe the week after the V-Twin crowd had their rally.
It used to be that BBW was a civil affair but it simply got too big. A lot of sportbike outlaws started showing up causing a lot a lot of mayhem.
