One thing I've noticed about Lloret de Mar during the past 3 - 4 years is that it seems to be getting a very popular place for motorcycle gatherings. Back in April we saw several custom built bikes parked on Lloret's seafront, as seen in the photos here.
Coming to town shortly - 11th to 13th June is the very popular Hardy Butts event. This will be the 3rd edition of the Harley Davidson bikes meeting in town, and organisers are predicting the biggest and best one yet!
There will be some changes to the event this year, one in particular is the venue change. Instead of the seafront they will be based around the casino area, with part of the weekends events taking part in the casino. There will be a 2 day poker tournament as well as motorcycle manufacturers from Europe and the USA being invited to display some of their bikes and products in the 1,700 sq metre exhibition centre. Many other activities will also be organised for all those attending, one of which will see the winner of the custom bike contest having the chance to take part in the Grand final over in the States.
Last year the Hardy Butts event brought nearly 20, 000 people to Lloret and about 7,000 bikes, so lets hope the local traders feel some of the benefit of all these extra potential customers which they so badly need !
