Myrtle Beach Bike Week!
May 9-18, 2008

The Myrtle Beach Area is one of the top vacation destinations in the nation with over 16 million visitors annually. Each spring it plays host to the nearly half a million bikers who enjoy the 60 miles of beautiful coastline and multitude of attractions and special events.

From May 9-18, the roads will be a sea of chrome as far as the eye can see. This is the third biggest bike rally in the country, and one of the fastest growing events in the Southeast. Don't miss it!

Every effort is made by sponsors, dealers, vendors and locals to welcome the visiting bikers! You'll find many of the vendors in the Inlet Square Mall/Murrells Inlet, SC area. On the Mall side of the highway there will be over five acres for vendors (some vending on pavement) and over twenty acres paved parking for customers, with easy access from both Business and Bypass 17! Behind the many events scheduled for this year's Bike Rally you will find Sonny Copeland, head of Sonny Productions. An avid Harley rider himself, he is responsible for coordinating the events taking place in the Inlet Square Mall area. If you are interested in leasing vendor space for this exciting event, contact Sonny at Myrtle Beach Bike Week Vendor Information.

During Bike Week, you'll want to stay where the expensive equipment you've come here with is safe and secure.

"Accommodating over 300,000 Harley Davidson motorcycles per day for almost a week is no easy task for resort operators. These bikers bring lots of welcome pre-season dollars to the Grand Strand and pre-planning their arrival is a necessary task. We accommodated more than 2000 motorcycles during last year’s rally (at the Resort), and we expect even more this year.” His payroll more than doubles during Bike Week as he supplements his staff to control traffic, parking, and security. “We’ve done this year-after-year,” quotes Perry, “and the bikers appreciate that we establish special security for their equipment. Many of the motorcycles we see here run well in excess of $20,000 and we provide an area solely for bikes with 24 hour security. We also have a separate lot for trailer parking.” When asked if he was ready for Bike Week to commence again this year, Perry responded, “we’ll be all set!”
