Comments

People ask me why I moved away from my hometown of Myrtle Beach. I'll refer them to this page from now on as my answer.

That's a lame comment, BBW happens for 3 days out of the year. I love living here and it is actually fun to people watch during the BBW. (which only happpens to be about 2 to 3 days long. Glad ya left Tom, you suck.

It was totally studpid for ABSC (Atlantic Beach, SC) to charge $10 or any other amount for what should have been a free enjoyable Memorial Day Holiday.

Referring to the comment at the top, if somebody asked me why I left Myrtle Beach, I would refer to the blog of the harley week. There are far worst sightings there than here. Im sorry but a 40+ year old lady (which is about the average age of a biker during those times) with nothing on does nothing for me or the many thousands that reside in Myrtle Beach.

yes the ladies need to cover up but there are laws regulating how much they can show. if one or two of them recieved a ticket maybe they would know to cover up a little more.nothing wrong with a nice pair of capries or some nice shorts that fit and dont show off your entire crack

I have lived here all my life, it is not that I have a problem with BBW but Memorial Weekend is also a Family Holiday. It is disgraceful to the families that come for the weekend and see some of the inappropriate clothing that some people wear. I know that there are laws, but some people may not enforce them like they should which is sending the message that it is okay and that we will alow this type of behavior.

Harley WEEk for 66 years, BBW for 26 years, so tell me Ashley, "When did you find out about the bike weeks?" Everyone knows when it's Spring Break in Daytona that it's not the time to bring kids. At the beach you wear bikinis so what's the problem?

well at virginia beach if you are going to walk on the strip with all the shops and families you have to cover up your damn bikini and the same should be in place at myrtle beach. nothings wrong with a bikini while you're at the beach so keep your behind at the beach on the sand with your bikini and if you venture off of the sand cover it up! the men do not have a problem of course but there are women and children that do not need to see this. every woman has T&A and can look at her own if she wishes she should not be subjected to over exposure. what's wrong with them putting on some clothes? all those men they are trying to impress are just going to get a quick nut for about three days and come back home to their girlfriends and wives. they don't even remeber these chicks names so have some scruples about yourselves ladies good grief!and before you think im jealous im not i have 34dd and a big behind of my own but it stays covered until the time is right.what's the diffrence between these chicks and strippers and street walkers same principal my friend.

I personally think if you work out and look nice then it ok to were a sexy two piece swimsuit, If you have a nice body and would like to were a thong then that's fine also but not on a bike that’s just tacky, and you can have too much booty. As for paying $10.00 I feel that if you pay Myrtle Beach $500.00 and up for a hotel then there should not be any problem paying Atlantic Beach $10.00 complaining about $10.00 is just plain cheap It's the cheapest festive I've ever attended.

Why don't you show the photos of the trash pit along the blvd in the mornings? The Black bikers brought the Ghetto with them. It was filthy and disgusting, not to mention what they did to the hotel rooms,elevators and stairways.

Oh spare me!! There's only one difference in the so called over exposure, just compare the pics like I did. At the Harley Rally you got DD cups trying to squeeze in A cup bikini tops, and at BBW you got big booty in little bikini bottoms! Harley men like T, Black bikers like A. So stop being such uptight judgemental hipocrites! Here is a newsflash for the prudes "THERE IS A GREAT CHANCE YOU WILL SEE BARE SKIN AT THE BEACH IN ALL COLORS". I live in Va Beach, they have the same nudity laws as M.B. the only difference is V.B enforces it to the EXTREME, so you prudes would love it here, it's like a retirement home gone wild. As for me I'll be in Myrtle Beach and South Beach

Sandi...
Thanks so much for your reinforcing comments of May 29.You're a class act & I'm glad I left,too.

White people wear their swim suit all the the time in the summer. Just bacaue their swim suit don't fits them like ours fits us that is their problem. This event only happens once a year for only a weekend. So whoever has a problem. Need to get over it.
Beacuse these people pay more money this weekend for a room then any time of the year and they are paying it. They bring alot of money into this beach.

Bike Bike Week to me is a chance to get away, and have a few laughs and free myself from the motherly job for a few days. However, i do think their need to be a age limit on this festival, starting with 21 and unlimited. There was alot of babies this year, and alot of cradle rockers. These people know that these kids are underage, but they still tend to lower theirself, and take these kids child hood further and further away, because they know its a chance that they may not see them again. I do not have a problem with the women dressing the way they do, if thats their choice, however me myself, I feel you can be sexy and still have clothes on. I was getting alot of compliments, and you are able to see the difference in men that was yelling and talking as a gentlemen to me( with clothes on) than women with no clothes on. They tend to be younger and did not care what came out there mouths. It was either yo girl, hey girl or pssst. Come on Now. The men that I was attracting, was very nice and talked with sense. (Some of them)But please people, do not hate on Bike week, people need to ask before making reservations, just what type of event is going on those weekends before booking, I do especially if my kids are going. Me myself I would not want to go on harley week or Gay week, so I do not hate on it, or pout about it, I just change my week.

I have a friend that just came back from M.B. and the only thing he's bragging about is how many he screwed while there. That's the only reason they're dressed like that walking around to attract the biker's and get them a little worry-free penis.but if she's hitting you off like that and she just met you how many others has she been with the same way and how do you know she hasn't caught something, condom or no condom things break stuff happens. you have to look at the whole picture not just a section the way they dress and the way they act and the other events that go on like public sex acts go hand in hand. Im no prude but damn if i wanted to see A@@ everywhere I turn I can walk around holding a mirror. There is nothing wrong with keeping things in their place. It's obvious you're young and don't know any better thinking it's perfectly ok to wear a thong with all your A@@ hanging out, there's a time and place for everything. would you want your girlfriend/wife walking around like that with every horney man trying to bed them...I think not. there is nothing prudish about having some self respect!trust when i wear my low rise jeans that show my thong my man's not having it go outside the house unless my shirt covers it. as far as the bare skin you only find it in that far section of the beach that you're not suppose to go because it's private property.

p.s. bored i'm not comparing the pictures i've seen here because they are censored and not the true scope of what i'm complaining about..why I keep talking about self respect!check a couple of sites out, you can find more all you have to do is google black bike week...

But maybe you will find these things acceptable. i just like to see what everyone else is showing from the same event so that my opinions are not bias, so that i have evidence to back up what i am saying.some of this stuff is no diffrent from the pornongraphy that you find in the local video store. granted all of the women are not behaving in this manner but the few that do make it bad for the rest.i'm also using the pictures that i have seen with my own eyes from friends that went to blackbike week to make my comments.
and as for working out and having a nice body and showing it off...if the big girls want to wear bikinis and they make it in their size go for it...there's nothing that says you have to have a perfect body to wear it if its ok for the skinny people and ok for the thick people if she wants to go for it do it....there's someone out there for everyone and someone will like what they see. but i don't want to see it on the strip keep it on the sand! i have had a friend tell me that last year during bike week he went to the balcony of his hotel room and heard some noises and when he looked down he saw a couple having sex outside in the lawn chair, so i guess all of this behavior is fine because it's bike week and everyone came to have a good time huh??

OMG! Stop the maddness. People, fight for something real. Bring your children up right. Teach them the correct values. All this fuss for what? Too much 'booty' showing. Good grief Charlie Brown!

no one's fighting lisa @ least i'm not i'm making a point! and it's not just too much booty showing it's what else went along with the booty showing!

Look Foggy no one complains when the trailer park trash attend festivals and leave their open containers and trash everywhere. they may have cleaned up harley week but where i live they have a couple of things for them during the year and uhhh let's just say they tend to be worse than what you are complaining the black bikers are bringing. i have seen pictures of the so called trash left and don't get me wrong there are some areas where they just dumped trash it seems but others you can tell that they tried to dispose of it things are neatly placed in a box and/or bags that have been tied. I think highly and get along with all races but i'm not going to sit here and be called ghetto and i know i am far from it.If the blacks bring the ghetto the whites shure as hell bring the trailer park!

MZ...I work on the Blvd at a hotel, It was no comparison. Save that bull crap for someone else. I saw it first hand. Harley week there was no going to the bathroom in the elevators and stairways, Last weekend there was, Harley week our vending machines were not broken into, last week they were. Want me to continue?

:)

I don't have a problem with the clothing per say. I actually get a kick out of the bad weaves (refering to the blonde in the picture) and the bad bikini tops for the large figured girls.

Don't blame the bikers. Blame the county/city council for allowing both events to overlap.
I dislike the fact that Mothers Day and Memorial Day always have the biker celebrations mixed in with them.
I don't mind them coming no matter if it is black or white bikers. I just can't stand the fact that they are here during holidays.

I see Foggy's point. The hotel properties I manage NEVER have an issue with the destruction of property. Only during BBW. I'll be happy when they finally run them off. Whites are just as bad as blacks.

It's the youth. There's no respect. No respect for other people's property, each other, themselves. I saw just as many whites showing their goodies as I did the blacks.

"Closing your businesses or refusing to provide equal services to Black Bike Week visitors that are provided to Harley Week visitors, or visitors at other times of the year, not only makes no economic sense, it is against the law," Nelson Rivers (head of NAACP) said to beachside business interests (in Myrtle Beach). That not only makes no sense (It's America and I can close my business when and if I want to) but it's what promotes negative feelings towards BBW.

After you don't come anymore, maybe more old white people from Canada will come during Memorial Day weekend! WOO HOO!
