Tourists heading through Florida this weekend may notice a large number of motorcyclists, especially on the Turnpike near Leesburg. It is the annual Leesburg Bikefest – the 14th annual. They expect well over 200,000 people to attend this year, especially since the weather forecast is near perfect for this type of event.

With vendors, entertainment, food, bike shows and more, it promises to be a great event. Let’s help keep everyone safe. During this weekend, and ALWAYS, pay special attention to my fellow-bikers. Ways to help keep them safe are written in my previous bike week article posted here. So look twice, save a life, and enjoy Leesburg, it is a beautiful area to visit and worth the drive – on two wheels or more.
