Friday, the first day of Bike Week, saw thousands of bikers, tourists, residents and beachgoers packed into the narrow street enjoying loud music, cold beer and sunny weather underneath sheltered patios and white-topped tents.
Suburban moms took their kids out for strolls, posing for pictures in front of Harley-Davidsons and tricked-out motorcycles that could only be created by those who have been in the biker scene for decades.
Whether the culprit was classic rock, rap music or the guttural growl of engines, there wasn’t a square inch of peace and quiet in the area, and most people seemed to like it that way.
