While there may be a few bikers still kicking around town today, for all intents and purposes Bike Week is now over. We packed up the trailer last night and we’ll be heading home this morning. Business was off about 25% compared to last year due to rally attendance being significantly off. Everyone was commenting on how quiet it was around town this year. The prices at the pump are beginning to take their toll on the motorcycle industry.
Even though we were down, we still had a decent rally. It’s just that we’re so accustomed to being VERY busy all week long and that didn’t happen this year. We had just one day where we rocked like usual and that was Monday. Every other day was down vs. the year before.
I’ve added another 70-some photos to our Myrtle Beach photo album. To the left is one of my favorite shots. This man and his dog were having a good time. They drew a small crowd when they pulled up next to our booth. I’m always amazed that some dogs don’t seem to mind wearing goggles. Very cute.
Goodbye, Myrtle Beach. See you next year.
