Been going to Thunder Beach spring and fall for several years. It's a great rally. There is some nice coastal riding.

However, if you're going for the riding, that may leave you wanting. The beach parties and various beachside venues, along with the local restaurants, vendors, bands, activities at the local HD dealership, and the big event at the park will keep your calendar filled.

Get a map and get familiar with the many good alternates to navigate along the beach. Otherwise, you can find yourself in a lot of traffic. The upside is you can easily get where you want and avoid traffic if you do a little preparation.

 

I love me some Thunderbeach. Weather is going to be perfect. Lot of good music. Nice vendor venues.I like the spring rally but the fall ain't bad either. Traffic on the beach can get a little tight but there is alternate routes to get around it. You gonna have a good time..

 

I would love to go again. Went a few years back and lots of fun. Quit the ridding club because they never went anywhere, got a touring bike and now I want to go. No one to ride with, hang out with though. I need to get some more friends with bikes and a little money to enjoy these things.

There is lots of places to eat, hang out at and shop. You will have a blast.

 

Thanks to everyone for the replys. Weather is awesome, beaches are awesome, live music is great, bikes are great, traffic SUCKS.. Boy these bikes get warm in stand still traffic. Makes you think twice about ceramic pipes. Everyone raves about how much cooler in traffic they are.

 

Check out Mexico Beach East of Panama .

 

Always a good time. 98 east along the pan handle is a nice ride also. We always take 98 when we come up from Tampa. JR
