NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. -- Temperatures barely got above 50 on a mostly-rainy Saturday, making the second of 10 days of Bike Week a washout. On Sunday, however, temperatures are expected to climb to a more seasonable 61 degrees with sunny skies in greater New Smyrna Beach, according to the latest forecast from the National Weather Service in Melbourne.
Even with a sparse crowd, Pub 4 on State Road 44, across from the NSB Regional Shopping Center, pulled out all the stops, including a live band.
There have been no biker-road fatalities reported so far, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Pub 44 and Bruce Rossmeyer's New Smyrna Beach Harley-Davidson next door are the hub of local Bike Week activities with the main counrty-wide hubs being Main and Beach Streets in Daytona Beach and at Destination Daytona in Ormond Beach, off Interstate 95.
