Sorry...HOLLISTER in California was the oldest bike rally in the USA, and unfortunatly, has been canceled the last 2 years due to complaints from non-bikers.
GHollister was the birthplace of the American Biker, and was the basis for the storyline of the movie, "Wild Ones" starring Marlon Brando.

We stayed just outside MB city limits a few nights ago. Hotel guy was telling us about the bullshit they did to the business owners by kicking out the biker business. Only one bike per parking spot, no loud pipes, helmets, 4 or more gathered can be considered loitering, etc.... We didnt even ride back through it after hearing that crap.

I have gone to MB almost every year since 1999. At first it was a blast but the last few years I have seen more and more rules and prices have gone through the roof.
Five years ago a decent room was $500.00 a week, now that same room is $1200.00 plus. I didn't go last year and don't plan on going any more unless MB changes all this BS from last year.
My money and I will go somewhere we are more welcome.

Just curious if anyone on this forum is going to Bike week? We have a group going from Virginia. Did not go last year. Heard it was okay, but stay out of MB City. Plan to ride Merrill Inlet and N.MB. Outer Banks was okay, but MB has always had the crowds. Is this event going away? I see vendors advertising for this. Your thoughts anyone?
Thanks
RJ!

I let these geezers play golf and bingo and I spend my money somewhere else.

Don't go to MB.
NMB, SurfSide, Garden City, Murrell's Inlet, and Pawley's Island will be rockin.
Lots of folks don't seem to understand that it never was just MB. Plenty going on all around and it's easy enough to get back and forth w/out going into MB proper.
