- Daytona Black Bike Week 2022: Daytona Bike Week
This has become one of my Favorite Events to attend.
Unofficial Black Bike Week in Daytona Beach. Daytona Beach has a very interesting history. My grandfather told me back when he was young, the discriminations in Daytona Beach was very clear and evident. Black Vendors had a hard time selling products and getting a spot on Main Street aka Beach side, so to help their community and make some money on the other side of the tracks, Black Bike Week was set up near one of the most known HBCUs in Florida, Bethune Cookman University.
"The necessity for separation was created by segregation during Daytona Bike Week’s dark past. Black Bike Week - on Second Avenue (since renamed Dr. Mary Mcleod Bethune Blvd) - has grown to be the laid-back alternative to the crazy world of Cole-slaw Wrestling, high prices, machismo at the silicone-enhanced version of the event.
Visitors to the annual Daytona Beach Bike Week celebration have taken home many, many traffic citations as souvenirs. But the story of biker legend Tommy Asberry during the Daytona Bike Week of 1971 has to be among the most memorable of them all.
“I was ticketed for parking my Harley-Davidson Electra Glide in among all the Hondas and Triumphs on Main Street,” said Asberry. “The police told me I couldn’t be parking a bike there, leaking oil like that, so I had to move along.”
Of course, oil-seeping Harleys are as much a part of the Daytona scene as overpriced beer and cheap T-shirts you’ll never wear. Asberry’s problem wasn’t the color of the 40-weight dripping from his crankcases - it was the color of his skin.
And like tens of thousands of other black motorcyclists who showed up for - but were eventually turned away from - Bike Week during the rally’s early years, Asberry eventually found a more hospitable place to park his motorcycle. The social conditions that contributed to bogus traffic tickets and parking citations for black riders may have changed or transformed a bit during the last five decades, but Daytona’s Second Avenue (Dr. Mary Mcleod Bethune Blvd), a three-block collection of Baptist churches, hair salons, and bars, continues to thrive.
Ever since the Second Avenue scene emerged out of bitterness and necessity in 1949 it continues to grow in popularity. It is this spirit of resilience that keeps Black Bike Week together, as it attracts an international mix of riders who, like the founders, come looking for a more family-oriented alternative to the raucous, corporate-sponsored mayhem of Daytona’s Main Street."

Thanks for the history in the description
Thank you for reading the description and gaining some understanding
Yea but we r past the 1950s.bikers need to come together as bikers and stop this senseles separation.
@@intelin123 have you seen the Confederate flags flying on Main Street? Thats also history that many there havent been able to move past.
@@cuzzintruck2 right.this is why all bikers are all bitches.bikers should stop doing this white or black bike week shit and do bikers for america in may and collect donations to help americans.mfrs still stuck in the 50s.shit man
Confederate flags are about heritage to most people that fly them. They aren’t about hate, with the exception of very few who use it to display their racist ideologies. There’s a lot more racist black people flying BLM flags than there are racist whites flying Confederate flags. But, keep right on segregating yourselves. You’re doing more harm than good as far as race relations go. But then again, that’s the way people like you want it. So be it.
Black Bike week, no vendors bands competitions didn't even block the streets of a lot of cars in the street. I may have to try it once.
I went to both just biker having a good time. Can't please everyone it's what you make of it that matter if you want to see it as color thing it's on you .I see as a good time keep riding
I was in that area coming from MIAMI ,it was people of all colors in that bunch. One day these IDIOTS will realize that we're all in this together!
@@milkcookies7162 they will never understand
they're making it a color thing by wanting to be separate.......................DUH
REAL bikers only see 1 color, and that's the color of your scenery!! Period.
Todas são muito bonitas, mais essa cor de vinho vídeo 6: 37 é realmente linda, um espetáculo. O coroa e a senhora loira na garupa PLACA MALM 58 STALLION👏👏👏👏👏👏 ABRAÇO AQUI DO BRASIL.
Dope video and some really nice bikes, adding this event to my bucket list. Much appreciated. Salute!!! 💯💪🏽
Appreciate it!! its the second week of Bike Week.
I appreciate these videos so much! I haven’t been to bike week in years!!! So seeing this is special.
Glad you found it, and thanks for watching
Coming this year to bike week
Its this weekend
Thanks for sharing the videos and giving a history. May I ask, to what does the "Nahmum " refer please? Thanks.
It's a Bible Verse. Nahum 1:7
E lamentável que seres humanos que amam o motociclismo tenham que se separar por conta da cor da pele , a nossa segunda pele no motociclismo e o nosso colete de couro que nos torna iguais
Great event with quite normal people
Love it
Really nice to see a mixture of Bikes at this event.
Definitely!
Excellent event, when I can, I want to be there.
Black bike week.
It's nice to see that Victory still lives.
Fuck this! What if they had white bike week? No that would be racist! Daytona bike week welcomes all bikers no matter what the color pallet!
read the description provided. Should give you some insight
someone has to keep racism and segregation alive.
Bike bullshit whilst babies are dying in Ukraine. Tactical Nuke
@@hd_trainwreck6226 They do a great job of it, too.
I always wonder why, when people don't like something they watch it all the way through so they can make stupid comments.
Great video! I love seeing all the creativity, styles and colors!
salute from Stockton Cali 😎😎😎
I see the Flaming Knights right off the rip💪💪💪 Shoutout the King Dragon 🔥🔥🔥💎💎💎
I enjoyed myself in Daytona for Bike Week💪🏼 Fun Time
Yes it was!
Looks like a good time! Would probably be even better if the city would block off none Motocycles during the event to help with the flow and for safety reasons.
What type of bikes are these called? I know like crotch rockets and Harley’s, are these baggers?
I think bikes are fantastic..especially, the women on Road Glides…
👍🏾👍🏾❤🧡Wish i was there😫
4:10 that's John from Ghost Gang on his Bleu Steel GSXR1000
This place o massive
I haven't taken timeout to tell you how much I enjoy your content from out here in Los Angeles mayne the flavor is so sweet I can taste it from here keep it up! I'm going to let all my potnas know what channel to view we use to ride years ago this is pumping me up Peace n Love
Thanks, I truly appreciate that.
Hello 👋🏾 am in Montréal Québec it in Canada 🇨🇦 I wood like 👍🏾 to join the party 🎊 need date and mount ove the celebration 🍾
Lmao nothing but duck walking hahaha
Bike Week should be just that BIKE WEEK! I am sorry but I have ridden through the Black Bike Week and enjoyed it very much Saw some great bikes and met some really nice people as well. But why does it have to be two separate bike events. We all share the same love for bikes and getting together and showing them off. Come on people this is just another way to separate the races and that crap should be gone on both sides of the fence... Time to move on...
They still fly Confederate flags and have political stuff up and down Main Street. Some people still havent gotten over the Confederacy.
When you pay us we can move on and apologize too!
@@inoginoino I think you mean the Africans who started the slave trade should pay you, right? Or perhaps the Africans who brought slavery to the America's. Or Maybe the black slave owners in the south who as a percentage held the highest number of slaves. Or maybe you should just educate your racist ass.
@@inoginoino pay who, for what?
@@inoginoino Pay you? What did you do?
Wow! So many bad assed bikes in one 31 minute video. And a great editing job too. Thanks for the eye candy.
Much appreciated!
Why is there two biker
Weeks?
The description and website gives the history
@@cuzzintruck2 no it doesn’t! It just say black bike week , my point being it should just be BIKE WEEK not racially divided in my opinion.. but nice footage
@@kdor1000 click the description of the video, not just the title. There is also a website that talks about the history of the event.
Bikes of different styles, bad ass....
Да действительно впечатляет круто классно, мира ☮️ на всей земле да будет так аминь 😀☮️♐.
Black bike week is not black and white..but bike week is black and white..when is white bike week.
wait, what?
Why too old they?
Why hasn't anyone put one of those big front wheels on the old school long fork chopper style bikes because they already did the fat tire in the back, isn't that the next step?...lol
Like the brutha on the yellow bike at 3:53, that bike would look good with the big bullet wheels, it's already got a fat low profile tire on the rear...right?
Coming up in April: ft Myers white bike week. Make sure to attend folks. Gonna be an awesome time
If you don't know the history behind it just say you're ignorant about why it's called that.
@@roybabineaux5353 it's racist
@@yoshit9819 it's racist because you're ignorant of the history or is it racist because you're Johnny come lately? If you don't know just say I'm ignorant of American history and then we can move forward. You guys say the exact same thing about hbcu's you have no concept of history or of its context.
@@roybabineaux5353 still racist
@@yoshit9819 yeah be willfully ignorant as usual, but unlike Daytona bike week black bike week has "NEVER" been segregated don't project what's in your heart on us.
When is it this year (2023)?
Its the second week of Bike Week in March.
This weekend
Why make this a race thing? Daytona bike week is for everyone. People preach about how bad segregation is but then do stupid things like this.
You may want to read the description of the video to learn more.
The stupidity is being proud of having Trump and Confederate flags waving everywhere at an event that is supposedly by your judgement not racist, and equally welcoming to all races. I am going to spend my time at the Black event were I feel safe and want to spend my hard earned money to help out our community. I don’t see those big name motorcycles companies on this side of the track. Why is that ? We spend just as much as white bikers on our motorcycles and at events like these , but as always we don’t get any Recognition.
I like your editing style. Just a little sharper on the transition and you got a thing!

I appreciate that. Am always trying to improve
Being a Black Harley Rider✔️💯…All the Street/Road Glides have the same Set-up….
Let’s get creative with the ROAD KINGS‼️
And Yes I That’s what I OWN💯…..
At 6:40, WOW!
Bro you are the best, thank you so much. Don't change a thing. Mad Props.
I appreciate that!
Those goofy 3-wheel things should have their own rally...........Big traffic mess, no thanks
Is this bike week or black week?
Both
In Canada we can't ride with those big front wheels our roads have too many pot holes they will dent those rims in no time.
Sorry to hear that.
Why is there a black Daytona bike week? I saw plenty of blacks last week at the Daytona bike event. Someone always trying to play the division game. SMH
Read the description of this video. There is an explanation.
@@cuzzintruck2 Well said man; I'd never visit the Bike week with all its confederate flags, obese retrumplicans and mocking of BLM everywhere; fuckin disgrace and I'm not black by the way.
No such thing as black bike week everyone from every background goes there obviously you have never been there or to Sturgis
NIce video !!!
Thanks for the visit
@@cuzzintruck2 Always try to watch your videos! Helps me with mine!
The biker jamboree in tampa may 26 -29 is going to be off the chain
Hate to say it but those are pimp wheels , do any of those guys ride Beyond the hood ? To each their own I guess
I always wanted to be a biker I'm 44 years old now I'm to old to go to jail
you dont have to go to jail. You can be a part time biker.
well schizzle my dizzel...lol
I don't go to these big events ever, I have a difficult time with huge crowds. Are us white folks allowed to show up too, or is that not a good idea? Im not from anywhere close and don't understand the dynamic of 2 different bike weeks.
trust me, you will be fine. Just dont act like a Karen.
No, stop coming around us
@@da1st169 see you there! 😁
Where do these people get the money to buy these bikes 😂
When is dsytona beach black week 2023

Looks way better than the Main street bike week
When is white bike week? Oh that's right that would be offensive.
What about Sturgis?
Look like the AARP Event....Where the Younger Bikers at 😎
Why?
Not?
Looking Good Everybody 🙂 even after the Rain 🌧️ LoL
Soul Brothers
Clowns bike week 🟨🟧🟪🟦🟩🟥 !!! 🤣⚰️
We’re that at I went to Main Street
It was near Bethune Cookman College
Ok I went this year and I miss a lot of area but hopefully next year I grind all the events in Daytona
its the second weekend of Bike Week
Duck walking at its finest.
When is White Bike Week?
Every bike event, unless it says Black , just like every month is White History month but February.
@@melaninbee7138 shaddup you dumb lefty.... sick of your lame racist crap
@@melaninbee7138 You need to get the rest of your lobotomy completed. Only 20% more to go....Crazy woke nitwit.
I hope you never go there because with that attitude of thinking you will get you're ass kicked
Anytime Hells angels pull up is when
#peace
bike week in the hood
Well, kinda...
Every time I saw that lifted pink truck hauling that mirror blue Bentley 🤔 I thought 💭 is a girl 👧🏽 or a 👦🏽 smh they look like they on their way to a gender reveal 👶🏾lmbo! Only
My mind smh
Black ? So is there a black side and a white side of Daytona or is it white week then black week?
I do not think that is daytona, and if I am not mistaken daytona just has bike week, but myrtle Beach has bike week and then has a black bike week.
@The Screaming Chicken so how does it work in Daytona because I was planning on going next year?
All the details are in the description of this video. There you will learn the History of Bike Week
@The Screaming Chicken that's interesting I was at Daytona bike week and so a lot of white and black people. I'm not counting but it looks pretty diverse to me.
@@roadking3844 typically, the second half of Bike Week in Daytona is the “black bike week” and most of what you see here (other than self-imposed segregation) is held on Second Avenue.
So confused ,,,, is this Daytona ?
Yes, near Bethune Cookman College
Way to f@ck up all those Harley Davidson motorcycles.
Why only black?
Why black people easly can call themselves black, and separate own ethnicity but people can't? 🤔
Why do you think this separation happened? Who do you think pushed them to do this?
👍👍👍🇺🇸✌✌✌
LMAO there literally segregating themselves
"They're" .....if you are going TRY and insult someone at least type it in proper English.
@@luvbig41 auto correct text clown , and it wasn't an insult it's the truth.
@@mikerice8047 No...was not auto correct....You are only clowning yourself. it was an insult. Definitely shows your ignorance. This is why CRT is so important OR you could've read the caption if you truly WANTED to understand. Instead you decided to post your ignorance.
Yes, they’re segregating themselves and we are benefiting from it. Win-win situation.
@@mikerice8047 you literally have no idea what you are talking about learn the history first then get back to us. What's next why they are called hbcu's next.
Yeeeoo, seriously?? Where in the name was this event even held? Definitely not any Main Street in Daytona. WTH???
Near Bethune Cookman College
My bro...you have awesome content. Videos on point. But this event is for what purpose? All those insanely nice bike should have been up on Main winning contests. Are we still in Jim Crow down south?? C'mon man
@@RoadKing-269 honestly, if you just drive around Daytona Beach, you can clearly see the division by neighborhoods. The fact that Bethune Cookman College is in Daytona shows what an ugly history we have had, and how it still affects the future. There is a website that better explains Black Bike Week in Daytona. I put a link in the description.
Obviously you have never been there it's always on main Street
@@cuzzintruck2 liberals not welcome at Daytona bike week
Lol
HAHAHAHAAAAHAAAHAHA!
RIDICULO
Once again all the liberals on this feed making this about black and white I've been to bike week 3 years in a row I've seen black white brown ect liberals always try to divide
How about a White Bike Week? No that would be racist.
It would be pointless. Learn your history.
They do have 1 and they’re open racist with signs saying no colors allowed and no colored allowed
You can’t stop being racist STAY HOME’’
