DAYTONA BEACH, FLA., MARCH 7-16—Attendees of the 73rd annual Daytona Bike Week were treated to some of the best weather in recent memory for 2014’s springtime bash on the beach. Area hotels and watering holes reported that business was the best they had seen in years as bikers and spring-breakers from across the States and beyond flocked to the shores of Florida for 10 days of Bike Week madness and fun. THUNDER PRESS North and South Editors Marjorie “Shadow” Kleiman and Robert Filla were on hand to report on this year’s action.
