Myrtle Beach has been running radio ads in metropolitan areas outside of Myrtle Beach in South Carolina and North Carolina. This ad clearly states that bikers are not welcome here even though they say towards the end of the radio ad that Myrtle Beach isn't anti-biker. This ad is clearly discouraging anyone on a motorcycle to not come to Myrtle Beach during the month of May, stating that the new laws were put in place because of the rallies. No matter how you look at it the city is discriminating against you if you ride a motorcycle, because if it wasn't for the rallies these laws wouldn't have been put in place in the first place. Listen to the radio ad yourself and make your own judgement.

Two separate accidents on 544 late Friday night around 10pm and 10:20pm claimed the life to two bikers. These accidents are the first biker fatalities during Myrtle Beach Bike Week. We were on scene at the 544 accident which happened directly across from the Boardwalk shopping plaza on 544, 1.5miles up from Bypass 17. Four vehicles were involved in the accident across from the Boardwalk plaza, two motorcycles, a truck, and a compact car. Unconfirmed reports are that the Mitsubishi Eclipse veered into northbound traffic and hit one motorcycle, then the other motorcycle hit that one, upon that the Mitsubishi continued on causing an accident with a Ford F150 truck. Details of the accident are still being investigated. As always ride safe, helmets do save lives. And those in cars, please use a turn signal and give plenty of warning and look in mirrors and your blind spot.
