I have never been to the Daytona one, but I have been to the Sebring one. The Sebring one is nice. Sebring has a small circle in the middle of town. There is a park in the circle. They close all the roads around there to cars. So all the vendors and bands set up right in the middle of town. Plenty of bike parking and it's easy to get in and out of town. It's not a huge rally like Leesburg or Daytona. It is big enough to have good bands, vendors, crowds etc. For me personally Sebring was about the perfect size. Leesburg was too big and crowded. Some of the local ones here in Palm Beach County are too small. Sebring was about right. Keep in mind I have not been to Daytona or Sturgis so my experience is limited.

There are also lots of places to ride in the area if you make it a weekend. Also lots of affordable motels in the area. They also do a BBQ competition on the same weekend. At least they did last year. It wasn't in the same location, but it was pretty good too.

We went last year and will go back this year. Of course it's easier for us. We have a place to stay just about 45 minutes from Sebring.

my freind has a house downtown seebring and owns a tat shop on the circle next to the dinner so staying there for me is easy. lol


my sis lives 40 min from daytona so staying there is easy too..     i think i gonna check out seebring one as time gets closer we need to fig out away for all the bikerflorida riders to meet up there

My attitude is always to go for one and stay for both.     Don't forget about Don's October bash Halloween weekend in Leesburg either.  Dan said if we plan something in the fall he can make it.  I am holding him to it this time.
