Bike Week '02

[Bill Vining]

I know it's still about 7 weeks off, but is anyone on the BBS planning to attend Bike Week this year? If so, where are you staying while there?

I've looked into it a little. As some of you may or may not know, in the past, BMW riders have had a sizable gathering at Bulows Resort near Flagler Beach. Up until last year, Space Coasters BMW Club had sponsored the camping site at Bulows. Last year, they pulled out for various reasons and it clearly wasn't as good as previous years. For this year, as far as I can gather, Bulows has completely closed up shop. According to Dancin' Dave (of BMW ON), the BMW group will move across I-95 from Bulows to the Holiday Travel Park. Camping fees will be $16/night per person for the entire week or $20/night per person for a single night. See here for further info: http://168.215.92.198/Bikeweek/pressrelease.htm

Personally, I'll be riding with a group of 5-6 from the DFW area. Half of the group has previously arranged accommodations. The remainder of us are still doing some research and I am interested to know of anyone's plans or suggestions.

Fanfuchkingtastic!
