Party Leaves You Howling by LuLu

The last day of Bike Week or Biketober- fest you won’t find me on Main Street or at any of the larger bars in town. I like to ride out to Bunnell on 100 to my friend’s bar the Dog Pound Saloon. It is a great local biker bar with a nice outside deck and backyard, a cool old building and a GREAT staff. The beer is always ice cold and the music awesome. This Bike Week the Chance Gardner band treated us to a full day of awe- some music, including a horn player who could blow two at a time!!! See their ad for the daily happenings here and at Smiles in Palm Coast.

A short bike ride south on A1A to First Turn Steakhouse has become the Destination Ride for many during Bike Week and Biketoberfest. Known for the sizzlin’ steaks and NASCAR celebrity sightings…their seafood including raw oysters is what we always ride down for. Rick and Denise that are avid motorcyclists always have a great line up of music…rain or shine. They bring down country recording artist Tim Dugger, and this year also entertained the crowd with artist Perego that does amazing things with a paint brush to rock and roll! The 5000 square foot deck is a great place to listen to music and don’t forget they have bike night on Tuesdays from 7-9pm with live music and $1.50 longnecks, $2 Twisted Tea and for those of you firewater drinkers…$2.50 Fireball shots!

8 THUNDER ROADS MAGAZINE FLORIDA MAY 2015 As far as a beautiful spot for a bike show, Riverfront Park Riverfront Park off Beach Street and Main has a spectacular place to display bikes for photography. This year the Ultimate Bagger Show event hosted by Chopped Baggers lined the inter coastal waterway. Each bike had its unique artistry and flair. This event is by LuLu Hosted by Chopped Baggers Bike Week and Biketoberfest and if you want to enter goes to facebook.com/riverfrontparkrocks.

However, and the media there’s an organized ploy to do harm to conservatives, capital- Americans have become the most complaining easily offended people. We ism, and people with religious convictions. May God bless America and may get upset and offended over the most insignificant nonsense. Some have even America continue to thank God. made it a profession and have become millionaires (Al Sharpton and Jesse The Institute of Economics and Peace did a study of 162 countries and found Jackson are examples). It seems like every month that we come up with a new that just 11 were not involved in conflict of one kind or another. There is a outrage and start a boycott campaign that is supposed to raise awareness of large increase in terrorist activity, civil unrest in the Ukraine, and continuing some stupid offensive thing. We have tried again and again to get somebody global unrest. We have a president who thinks the war on terrorism is a nui- fired for saying what we feel is something offensive. We come up with more sance and inconvenience and ISIS is a JV team. I admit that not all Muslims fabricated offenses and controversies. Instead of drinking from the chalice of are terrorists but 99.9% of radical Islamic militants are Muslims. Terrorism is tolerance, we have been drinking from the bottle of self indignation. With the not just a “man caused disaster”or “workplace violence”. The world is facing world in turmoil, we are more concerned about whether a Christian bakery a global financial crisis. In our country alone we have the lowest labor force should make a cake, a Christian florist should make a flower arrangement, participation since 1978. 91.8 million are not working.

by LuLu

Last Biketoberfest a new tradition came to Daytona Beach Bike Week. Main Street Station now plays host to a hot bodied bikini contest and the lot was full of smokin’ hot girls (the contestants and the Jager girls) and people to cheer on the contestants! Judges choose the girl who will represent Jager and be named Miss Main Street Station…and she walks away with the largest prize money in town!!! Don’t miss this event during Biketoberfest… great photo ops!!

MAY 2015 THUNDER ROADS MAGAZINE FLORIDA 17 Iron Horse Saloon Music*Food*Hot Bikes & Fun by LuLu You can’t possibly go to Bike Week in Daytona without a stop at the World Fa- mous Iron Horse Saloon on US 1…what draws bikers by the tens of thousands isn’t the cool as hell back lot…it is the famous beef tips, awesome bike week T-shirts that you will see folks wearing when you travel to anywhere in the world, and the MUSIC!!! Locals may bitch that the beer prices are higher than other bars…but the other bars aren’t offering famous bands with their cheap beers!!! This year Mus- tang Sally rocked the house, and David Allan Coe still fills the place, handsome Jared Blake’s fingers strumming his guitar didn’t miss a beat Ladies!, Cold Hard Cash had everyone coming back each time they played and, of course, Brian Howe formerly of Bad Company is just awesome. And if cheap beer is what you are looking for during Bike Week…Buy an Iron Horse Mug and drink draft for free from 4-5pm!!! This year they also had some fabulous baggers to ogle during their bagger bike show!

18 THUNDER ROADS MAGAZINE FLORIDA MAY 2015 Destination Daytona Bike Week 2015 by LuLu The world famous Bruce Rossmeyer’s Destina- tion Daytona certainly didn’t seem to experience the decreased numbers that others noticed dur- ing Bike Week. The parking lot was packed, peeps were shopping and the concert and bikini contest were filled to capacity. The Rossmeyer’s have really worked to add interesting experi- ences for all at Bike Week including the stable for the Clydesdales, great concerts and the Miss International Bikini Contest which they host. I am sure Bruce would be proud of his family’s efforts to make Bike Week what he helped to build!!!

Bike Week at the Cabbage Patch bar by Kneecap Spending Bike Week at the Cabbage Patch Bar is better than going to Disney World or Universal Studios, and cheaper too. There is always something to entertain you. Body paint, Ms. Cabbage Patch, tattoo, longest beard, and strongman contests just to name a few. There’s live music on four different stages daily. There is over 5 acres of vendors, free bike parking and $10 camping. They had two great big bike shows. One is a traditional “Ride in Bike Show” and the other is the “Battle of the Baggers”. And let’s not forget The World-Famous Coleslaw Wrestling which is held twice during Bike Week. If you missed all the giveaways, promos, and entertainment you missed experiencing the real Bike Week, but don’t worry they’ll have it again in October with probably even more great contests and entertainment. If you can’t wait till October go visit Ronnie, Roger, and their great bartenders. The Cabbage Patch is open year-round with a full liquor bar and drink specials daily. Now how much fun is that?

hft_thunderroads_0515_florida_M-REG61783.indd 1 4/20/15 1:46 PM Broken Spoke Bike Week 2015 Rocked!! by LuLu

The new owners of the Broken Spoke on US 1 in Ormond Beach have to be pretty happy with their first Bike Week, even though the crowds for Bike Week were re- ported to be smaller by as much as 40% that definitely wasn’t the case at the Bro- ken Spoke. Whether it was the sparkling white lights in the massive oaks mak- ing it look like Bike World Disney or the amazing live bands they scheduled, this place was the spot to be for Bike Week! Lots of new picnic tables, games includ- ing checkers and ax throwing, and pretty bartenders kept everyone there once they arrived. The band to see Biketober- fest because I can almost guarantee they will bring them back is Hairball, although, Warrant, Uncle Kracker and Jared Blake also packed the huge property. Can’t wait to see who they schedule for Biketober- fest, and rumor has it they will open up on weekends sometime this year.

28 THUNDER ROADS MAGAZINE FLORIDA MAY 2015 12th Annual Easter Bunny Toy Run

by Ron Cox

The SWFL Chapter of the Harley Owners Group (HOG) and Six Bends Harley-Davidson hosted its 12th Annual Easter Bunny Toy Run on Saturday April 4th. The run is always held on the Saturday before Easter Sunday. The “Bunny Run” marks the first run held at Six Bends HD’s new location, the old dealership was Ft. Myers HD. Almost 600 bikes and more than 850 riders/passengers assembled for the ride to Golisano Children’s Hospital at Health Park. The ride was escorted by motors and cruisers from the Lee County Sheriff’s Department. Festivities started on Friday night with pre-registration and bike night at Six Bends. Riders received a packet of goodies which included info from local businesses, a beverage coozie and the commemorative pin. The Gotta Luv It band entertained with lots of Rock, Motown and Oldies. Of special interest was a card with details regarding the 2015 Florida HOG Rally which will be hosted by Six Bends HD, called The Roar to the Shore. The weather on Saturday morning couldn’t have been better. Clear blue skies and low humidity. There was more than adequate parking and chapter volunteers lined up the row upon row of bikes. At the appointed time the Easter Bunny appeared and led the procession of bikes on the 17 mile ride to the hospital. Hospital staff brought the ambulatory patients down to the entrance to watch the motorcycles ride by. More than one youngster (and adult) covered their ears as the bikes rode by. Once inside, the Easter Bunny was the center of attention as he greeted each child with a small gift. A huge Harley crate decorated like an Easter basket was filled to overflowing with toys, boxed games and arts/crafts supplies brought by the riders. Linen carts and plastic bins were on hand and filled with the overflow. Lee Memorial Health System President Jim Nathan spoke briefly, welcomed and thanked the riders for their support. After months of planning another Easter Bunny Toy Run is in the books and planning starts for next year’s run.
