What's going on Craig. I'm glad to hear you had a good time. I reserved a room in West Memphis, Arkansas by in January, but decided not to attend 60 days out. I stayed in downtown Memphis last year to attend bike night on my way to Black Wallstreet Rally in Tulsa. Bruh, never again. The crime is off the chain. We were fortunate because we parked our bikes directly in front of the hotel doors, however, we were awaken at 3 o'clock a.m. in by other guest because (6) cars of Memphis police were in the parking lot checking vehicles. Eleven vehicles were broken into. This is a common trend in Memphis. I enjoy your videos bruh, keep them coming. Take care

Thanks for watching. I was surprised at how bad the crime was. Looking forward to seeing where they will hold it next year. Ride safe!

Good to hear all the GBU of the event. Wish we could have been there but... The entry/re-entry thing, Was the city police idea (so we were told) We heard a lot about some of the problems because a group we're in texted us several times. I agree, too many bikes, carts, and cars mixed in the same area. We rented an RV for last year's event, and even though we (6 people with 3 RVs) paid for a spot waaaay in advance and were promised that we would have a spot...Needless to say, we didn't get a spot. However, we did receive a full refund..

I am told that it is difficult to manage because they really rely heavily on the host motorcycle clubs in the area to organize a lot of things for them. I do like that they move it around but one advantage to keeping it in the same city is that you can really get a system down that works because you are improving year to year. I think when you move it around and essentially have new people involved in the organizing and planning every year it's going to be very hard to get some sort of consistency. But overall I had a great time and plan on going next year. Ride safe!

Great trips. Great looking vendors. Looks like a primarily black event?
