    You have to wonder, did the motorcyclists also complain about too many people attending the meet? Everything is relative, maybe 5 years before that picture attendance was less and more enjoyable. Imagine telling those people that one day there would be 400K +.

    • When I first started going to Bike Week in Daytona in the '70s it had an 'outlaw' presence that wasn't always pleasant However, it did give the event an edge that has now been replaced with posers, and ding-bats. Looking at the picture that JoJo posted makes you wish you had been part of that scene where it was about real motorcycling and escaping the cold end of a Northern winter.
