ormond beach: Bikes & Blues 08 Sends Out A HUGE Thank You To Its Sponsors! - 04/11/08 02:52 PM
The Mickey Jones 2008 Bikes & Blues for St Jude Children's Research Hospital events last weekend were a huge success!
We don't have a finally tally of the event totals yet, but I can tell you that we passed last years amount of $37,500!

Where better to that then right here on Active Rain and Localism?

ormond beach: Bikers Descend Onto Pelican Bay - 09/13/07 10:42 AM
On Saturday, September 8th the residents of Pelican Bay, a gated "golf community" here in Daytona had their quiet lifestyle interrupted for a couple hours by the thunder of around 50 bikers and their machines.

We were filming a … (12 comments)
