Here is the deal about "black bike week", not trying to start shit just trying to shed some light on it being from the south and all. Yes way back when it was orgainized by black bikers for black bikers. Only because the beach itself was segregated. The far north end of the beach was for blacks only. Now that segregation is over and everyone can go where they want it just so happens that tradition of meeting a certain week of the month of may for black bikers still exist. But to say that black bike week is for blacks only now would be saying hip/hop and rap is only for black, which we all know is not the case. You can all walks of life during the so called "black bike week". If you wanted to put a title on either week you would say the first week is the Crusier week then the next week is sportbike week. Sense you don't see too many colored people on harleys its majority white. The next week would fall during the traditional "black bike week" with mostly sport bikes and a much younger crowd. What it boils down to is tradition and because its in the south which has a bad history of racism it just seems wrong.
