|  | Georgia Bikers - BIKERS USA has revamped the Georgia motorcycle events section to be used for Georgia biker rights and other Georgia biker resources. |
| | | For 40 years, bikers have complained about their helmets, but as of Halloween, 2007, there were only 20 official complaints going back to 1995 on file at the NHTSA. There are 500,000 helmets recalled and most are probably on our heads! Tell NHTSA to force helmet makers to make helmets they are willing to stand behind and are rated for 70 mph. If they made a better product, the government would not have to force people to wear these torture devices.
Make your motorcycle helmet complaint official by filing it online now!
Update: Within the first 48 hours of the Halloween 2007 Campaign, the number of official helmet complaints on file doubled compared to the last 12 years! Please tell all bikers they should be making their helmet complaints official. It’s easy!

| | | MOTORCYCLE RALLY | Where to Stay | Daytona Bike Week | Daytona Beach Hotels
Nearby, Ormond Beach is my preference. | Arizona Bike Week | Scottsdale Hotels | Myrtle Beach Bike Week | Myrtle Beach Campgrounds
Myrtle Beach Hotels | Laconia Rally | If you pitch a tent like I usually do: Weirs Beach Campgrounds. Note: Everyone says camping at the Drive-In is best. That is bogus! There is much better camping in the area. Even Gunstock is better, but they want an outrageous 5 night minimum. Definitely, chill out in Weirs Beach on Saturday night. My favorite Hotel is in the little town of Lincoln NH (my exact favorite is secret, sorry). For hotels closest to both the races in Loudon and Weirs Beach, choose Loudon, Concord,or Tilton. On the way from NY and CT, stop off at Sturbridge Village on Thursday 6/15. On Sunday 6/18, if you’re heading back to Boston, stop at Hampton Beach and spend Sunday evening in Hampton NH, Seabrook NH, or Salisbury MA. | Sturgis Rally | Campgrounds are definitely the best. For those who want a hotel, if I weren’t staying in Sturgis, I would choose Deadwood. | Lone Star Rally | Galveston Hotels |
