St. Petersburg Rally Brings Four Days of Motorcycles, Music, and Celebrity Appearances

St. Pete BikeFest runs four days at the OCC Road House & Museum. Bert's Barracuda Harley-Davidson hosts the gathering, which packs in concerts, bike shows, and appearances from Paul Sr. of Orange County Choppers fame.

Blackberry Smoke and Creed Fisher will take the stage each night. Free afternoon performances showcase local acts. Paul Sr. leads a ride across the Sunshine Skyway Bridge.

The venue sits close to Pinellas County beaches in Tampa Bay. A bike show happens alongside vendor booths hawking gear and souvenirs.

RumFish Beach Resort by TradeWinds and Hampton Inn & Suites Clearwater-St. Petersburg put together packages for attendees. Some proceeds benefit Athletes for Hearts, Inc.

Bert's Barracuda, OCC Road House, Road House Nation, VSPC, Fran Haasch, Pepsi, Budweiser, and Chrome Cigars sponsor the event. The rally mixes motorcycle activities with beach access.

Paul Sr. from Orange County Choppers shows up throughout the weekend. The TV star joins group rides and meets fans at the museum.

OCC Road House & Museum hosts everything. Vendors spread across the grounds, displaying products and services that bikers want.

Bands perform when the sun goes down. More free shows fill afternoon slots. Blackberry Smoke and Creed Fisher top the bill.

The Sunshine Skyway Ride with Paul Sr. lets riders tour local roads together. Bike owners can throw their machines into the show competition.

Athletes for Hearts, Inc. gets a cut from ticket and vendor sales, turning the rally into a fundraiser for St. Petersburg.
