In a press release issued this morning, the association said it had been welcomed by the mayor of New Bern and has a 40-acre site for the rally, which will take place May 15 and 16 -- a shorter event than the ones that are usually held in Horry County each May and draw nearly 500,000 people.
The New Bern rally will be held at the New Bern Fairgrounds at 3700 E. U.S. 70.
In the press release, Mark Cox, president of The Carolina Harley-Davidson Dealers Association said, “We feel it is in the best interest of The Carolina Harley-Davidson Dealers Association and our customers to leave the Myrtle Beach rally venue...This new venue will allow us to get back to basics and offer our existing and new customers a rally experience they will appreciate without restrictions and with the ability to enjoy the freedom of riding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle."
The dealers' association said it had given the issue serious thought and decided to go where it would be welcomed. “We are pleased and honored that you have chosen to hold your rally in our city, and we pledge our total cooperation in making your rally a most pleasurable and memorable occasion for all in attendance, said New Bern Mayor T.A. Bayliss III.
