Saloons
The White Eagle
US 1, Korona (yes, Korona), about 10 miles north of Destination Daytona
Our favorite Daytona Area Biker Bar. No bullshit posers, just working people like us.
Reasonable prices, good bands, sporadic outbreaks of T&A make the W.E. a must stop.
(please be extra careful when pulling out onto US1. The curve is a death trap)
Boot Hill
The original: Main Street, Daytona Beach
Second location: US1, south of Destination Daytona
the original big daddy of 'em all live music
Broken Spoke
US1, south of Destination Daytona
live music
Wise Guys
Main Street, Daytona Beach
great views, good sound system
Dirty Harry's
Main Street, Daytona Beach
Wild girls make the $6 tequila shots more palatable
For some bullshit reason, most area bars ban "Colors", so expect to be turned away now &then.
Motorcycle Repair & Towing
Destination Daytona
I-95 & US1, exit 273
386-254-2700
The smaller guys will be overwhelmed. DD is your best bet to get it done fast.
The repair bay will be jammed with crippled bikes, but they do a good job of towing,
and they never run out of parts. If you can't find your Harley part at DD, it ain't been made.
Home to Arlen Ness Motorcycles, authorized dealer for American Ironhorse, Hellbound Steel,
Rucker, Triumph, Ducati.
No-tell Hotels & Motels
If you haven't yet booked a bed, your best bet may be to wait until the last minute, then
try an online broker like Priceline, Hotels, Expedia, Travelocity, etc. That's what we do.
