The last stragglers have finally loaded up their trailers, taken their bikes ,their camping equipment, and most importantly their money home.

A week after the events of the 66th annual Bike Week have officially ended, you can still find the Harley Davidson's, The Yamaha's and every other motorcycle brand imaginable cruising the street's in and around Daytona Beach, but For the most part these are the locals, The year round resident's who enjoy the Florida sunshine, that for 9 month's out of the year allow them to saddle up and feel the wind on their face.

There was a time about 10 years ago that Daytona Beach would be getting into tit's Spring Break mode. One of the reasons that Daytona Beach was given the title "The worlds Most Famous Beach", was the fact that it was the most popular Spring Break destination in the world. Tens of thousand's of excited college students from every corner of the country and even overseas would flock to Daytona Beach, for two weeks of all night parties, all day sunning, and of course for the inevitable hook ups with the opposite sex. The place to be during Spring Break was Daytona Beach. Spring Breakers brought their bags ,their cars,their clothes and their credit cards. With MTV and VH1, sponsoring and televising all the happenings both live and taped feeds to all corners of the globe, there was no other place a 20something college student would rather be.

MTV held concerts and gameshows right on the beach, their were Huge celebrities from the music and television industry hanging out downtown. You could catch a Hootie And The Blowfish concert, and ten minutes later be a contest on MTV's Remote Control. VH1 had there dance competition's and bikini competition's on the sand by the peir. Whatever your pleasure, you had only to look around. Budweiser, was here even the Trojan Condom company had a booth. I suspect they did good business, with so many attractive young people away from the confines of ordinary life. Daytona beach was the hottest party place in the world for those two weeks.
