I stayed in a motel from Sunday through Thursday this week in Myrtle Beach. Sunday was the last full day of black bike week. The motel was insane. There was screaming and hollering in the hallways until 3 AM. One person drowned in the pool. I did see a surprising number of rather large butts wearing Daisy Duke hotpants, hanging off the back of sport bikes.
The crowd also included a surprising number of black women on ornate sport bikes. Fully 10% of the motorcycles were Harleys this year. That is a big increase from past years.
The locals told me that although traffic was very high in their businesses, tips were almost nonexistent during the week. They also commented that in the previous week, regular bike week, there had been no trouble, tips were good, and the patrons were pleasant.
Not surprising, anyone who's ever worked in the restaurant business knows that to be a constant. Notoriously bad tippers pretty much across the board.
