As we all know the months of May and October are times when thousands of bikers gather in Myrtle Beach for annual bike rallies. This year the fall rally will run from Wednesday, October 1st and continue through Sunday, October 5th. As a result of several newly imposed rules and regulations enacted by the city of Myrtle Beach, this rally will be slightly different than before. Though expected to be different, I must say as I made my way through town last night, I witnessed what I believe to be an influx in the number of bikers in town from mid-week last year.

Though there have been several limits placed on the bikers this rally which will more then likely continue on into the much larger Spring rally, bikers are urged to follow the basic more common sense rules through out the city, such as following the posted speed limits, the local noise ordinances which have been modified for this years event as well as the locally imposed helmet law.

Though the events are intended for fun and for all to enjoy the inevitable will occur. There will be DUI arrests, bikers will likely be injured or killed, and thousands upon thousands will be made in revenue from local officials issuing citations. Though things may be different this year than previous years, our law firm wishes the best for all bikers and hope everyone is safe and has the opportunity to enjoy the rally.
