This should be interesting! Since Atlantic Beach decided to hold the "29th Annual AB BikeFest" after they accepted Mayor Rhodes and City Manager Tom Leath offer of appox. $500,000 for future development in exchange for not hosting the BikeFest anymore. I bet Atlantic Beach Officials and NAACP will be there and focused to see if Myrtle Beach reneges on the buy out because Atlantic Beach didn't keep up their side of the deal!

Could someone possibly get a video of this meeting? I know it would be a pain in the a!s, but for us who can't attend it would be a blessing. I know it's a lot to ask of someone.
NOT A DIME IN 09 "BOURIG" Ride free and PROUD

Actually a video would not have been a good idea. While I would be embarrased if I were Mayor and could only get 75 people most of which were Council members and their guests to show up, only 8 Bikers showed up. This was the Players Ball with all on the inside there to question at will. And we didn't even fill 1 table. Sad....

I just read the entire thing www.wmbfnews.com/global/story.asp?s=10065261 and to hear him tell it everyone is in his corner even other local governments and even boost.. Is boost for or against the rallies? I just dont know what to think to hear everyone raise He** about everything and then not show up to something like this. Everyone is wanting the rallies but when it comes time to put up or shut up only 8 show up?? If this is a sign of things to come I guess were in bad shape.. Thanks to all the 8 brothers that showed though and I wish I was closer to have gone.

I came to work this morning and logged right in to see how the mayor's meeting went. I figured there would be a ton of bikers and local business people there. What a disappointing turn out.
Thanks to all of you that went. See you in May.

This was the Players Ball with all on the inside there to question at will. And we didn't even fill 1 table. Sad.... Honestly, I feel that the lack of turn-out shows just how unimportant the event was to most people. Heck, I read the Sun News article the day before the event and almost lost my morning Pop-Tart LOL! Apparently, Mark Kruea wrote the speech for Rhodes, and either Mr Kruea or the Sun News now believe that the City of MB celebrated it's 80th birthday last year? ?? Now, I remember last year they told us it was the 70th Birthday. ( www.thesunnews.com/news/local/story/831135.html ) So while I'm sure we all agree the Reign of one year under Toad has felt like 10 YEARS, perhaps the Freudian slip here was that our Mayor has set the City of MB back 10 yrs. in terms of progress. Unless you count the numerous vacate buildings and closed businesses as progress, and if you do, then we all know which game you're playing.... Per the City of MB's very own website..... - Myrtle Beach was incorporated as a TOWN in 1938
- Myrtle Beach became a CITY in 1957
- Per my calander....it's the year 2009 now.
Hopefully this was a typo on the newspapers part and not a mathematical error because it's so simple, even a biker could do it ;D ;D ;D ;D ROTFLMAO!!
