Thunder Beach is here! Organizers expect 90,000 bikers to attend this year's Spring Rally in PCB. And with all of the bikes I've seen the past few days, I believe it!
The event is spread out over several days (only 4 days officially, but there are plenty of bikers in town early, pre-rally concerts and lots of partying, so... it takes up pretty much a whole week) and takes place at 7 official venues (but spills over to take over the entire beach during the weekend):
Frank Brown Park
The Shoppes At Edgewater
The Boardwalk Beach Resort
Sharky's Restaurant & Tiki Bar
Spinnaker Beach Club
The Sandpiper Beacon
Newby's Too
Edgewater and Newby's Too were pretty busy today as the vendors were setting up and many of the early bikers checked out the offerings. This weekend will be pure madness as Harleys take over the beach from one end to the other.
NOTE FOR ALL YOU BIKERS IN TOWN: Bikini "Hawg Washes" are available at Shaggy Marlin's on Thomas Drive. We almost pulled in at lunch, but not sure if they would have washed the ol' Ford Explorer or just laughed at us. I've never wanted a Harley so bad... those girls were ROCKIN' HOT!!!!!
NOTE FOR EVERYONE ELSE IN PCB: Be careful on the road this week. Take extra time to drive safely and look out for motorcycles on the road. Be safe!
