One of our salesman stays in MB every week and what he has been hearing from a lot of the merchants is that MB knows it has screwed up. They have been hearing from the local LEO's that things are suppose to be more laid back this year because the golden goose has gone elsewhere. This is just the word on the street so nothing written in stone from Town Hall.
Myself I would rather go to the Cherokee Survivors Rally the last weekend of April. Better riding and biker friendly towns. MB showed they didn't want bikers so I say let them become a ghost town.
If you visit the Cherokee Survivors Rally website, it says it is cancelld until further notice.
I hit the MB Spring and Fall Rally ever year for the past 4 and the Fall is dead but the spring is still good. Suck Bang Blow still has all the hot strippers acting wild.....love it!

The Fall rally is always much less people. I've been going since '00. It's moreorless the same every year. Spring brings in the hordes of people. Fall is much less crowded.
I'm going and looking forward to it. Can't wait to get out of this cooler weather in PA. We went down last year and just missed the rally so this year we planned accordingly. Will be down there the whole week Saturday to Saturday.
I'll be there again this year. Last year like most bikers I avoided the merchants in MB proper. I stayed in North Myrtle Beach where we were welcomed. I visited the vendors in the north beach area and visited the bars in Murrel's Inlet on the South side. Passing through MB I was not hassled nor did I see anyone pulled over. I have V&H longshots and they are not quiet. Like most of the crowd I skipped the restaurants and shops in the city limits. With the down economy, I bet they wish they had never let a few aldermen on the council try to rid of the bikers.
One note I did see the website for Cherokee Survivors Ralley says cancelled until further notice.
38 Special announced at the House of Blues on Saturday, May 21.
Also, AC/DC tribute band Highway to Hell at SBB at Murrells Inlet, May 19,20 & 21. They play Boot Hill in Daytona during Bike Week. Great party band - they pull lots of women onstage.
Bike Week was good, but I'm looking more forward to attending the Myrtle Beach Spring Rally.
Last time I was there they aren't biker friendly, either. I see no reason to go back... high dollar drinks, not so hot entertainment. There's something wrong with the MB HOB compared to others I have been to.
