FloridaHello, I'm Jody and welcome to American Cafe. Hey, Yang Chen, how was your trip down to Florida?
I did! We drove down too. What a fun time!
Oh, you're telling me. We drove straight through too and it was a long drive. Hey, on the road did you notice all the motorcycles?
Well, it just so happens that we were coming home just as Bike Week was ending in Florida.
Yeah, all the bikes were going to Daytona Beach where they have Bike Week. I think this year it ran from Feb 27 to March 7.
And on the way to Florida I stopped at the headquarters of Bike Week and spoke with a biker named Gino. He told me a little about Bike Week and biker culture.
Well, my name is Gina Garjulo and I am in St. Augustine, Florida. And we're about 65 miles north of Daytona, which has the second largest Bike Week in the world. This Bike Week here is in its 63rd year. And every year people come from all over the world, literally.
That's right. People come from all over the world to attend Bike Week at Daytona. A lot of people came and a lot of people spent a lot of money.
About 500,000 people descend upon Daytona. It's an impact of about $500 million dollars in about a two-week period all together.
Well, Gino explains that Bike Week is a very interesting look into the diversity of the biker culture.
Okay, some people think that all bikers have long scraggly hair and tattoos and beards. You know, that's the stereotype of a biker. |
