Harley will have the “Wall of Hope” at the Women’s Interactive Experience at the Daytona Beach Ocean Center. Experience attendees are urged to place their signature on the Wall. For each signature Harley-Davidson will donate a dollar to MDA, so sign a couple times.

Also the 2nd Annual Women’s Day Ride will take place on March 3, 2009. Besides having the opportunity to ride with hundreds of other lady riders, the riders also help raise funds for MDA. Last year’s riders donated nearly $67,000 for the cause.

I went down in 2008 for Bike Week. We stayed at the Daytona Beach Oceanside Inn which is just several blocks from Main Street. Nice clean hotel, staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a free continental breakfast every morning. Can't really remember what I paid per night but it was probably @ $120. Some of the bars to check out are Froggys Saloon for sure, right on Main Street. Dirty Harry's is another one to check out. In fact, any of the bars on Main are a lot of fun. The Last Resort Bar on Ridgewood Avenue is an interesting place to check out just because that is where the serial killer Eileen Wuornos was captured. The place is really small and a dive but neat to stop and get some pictures or a t-shirt.
