On Saturday during Biketoberfest I made my usual trek down to Space Coast Harley-Davidson in Palm Bay. It’s a nice hour and a half motorcycle ride and it takes me away from the madness of the Daytona area crowds. They always have good stuff going on…live bands, a couple of bars set up, a bike show, a motorcycle stunt riding team smoking and blowing up rear tires, lots of vendors including 2 of our advertisers, Chip with Everything Biker Consignment and Michelle from Yankee Babe Apparel, and tons of Harleys for sale. Inside the showroom there were several Tattoo booths set up creating a type of Tattoo convention. They also recently introduced a new concept, an off shoot of plain old Harleys. Space Coast Speed Werks is a high performance and customizing department that tricks out your stock ride and takes it to another level. It’s something for all you speed demons out there to check out. With so much to see, it’s very easy to spend the better part of an afternoon down on the Space Coast being entertained. On the way back I stopped in at their sister store in Titusville, Miracle City Harley -Davidson, for a beer. It is a very cool dealership with a huge tent outside in the parking lot with live music playing and cocktails flowing. There was even a little dancing going on. So, if you’re looking to get out of town for a day during Bike Week take the ride down to see our friends in Palm Bay.

Bishop from Space Coast H-D and Bad Influence Kustoms will be having a BikeNight at Bender’s Bar & Grill on January 15th including a professional model shoot and honoring Veterans. Take a selfie with the girls. Live music at 2pm, ride in bike show 3p, photo shoot 4:30-6:30pm, and winning photo will be in March issue of Thumder Roads Florida.
