Myrtle Beach Bike Week events 2011

With thousands set to hit the Grand Strand for this year's Cruisin' the Coast Spring Bike Rally riders are focusing on taking back the beach. Turnout numbers are expected to be higher this year, The city of Myrtle Beach has relaxed its noise ordinance, and Helmet laws have been overturned and thus the stage is set for a return to full-on party form in 2011.

Of course, with any party of this caliber comes a slate full of musical entertainment along with tons of other great events that both bikers and the non-biker crowd can head out and enjoy over the next few weeks. Here's a look at some of the great events planned:
