The Las Vegas Bikefest 2017 is the premiere biker rally in the U.S. that each year highlights the biggest, baddest, and most spectacular choppers, speed bikes, and hogs anywhere in the country. This year’s rally takes place October 5-8 and promises to be just as epic as in years past. Here’s everything you need to know about this event:
1. Book Your Accommodations
The offical rally hotel is the Golden Nugget, but several other hotels (Downtowner Motel, the D, The Downtown Grand, Oasis at Golden Spike, Plaza Hotel & Casino, and Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower) offer discounts when you use the rally’s applicable promo code. Of course, Vegas has no shortage of hotels, so if none of these appeals to you, there are many other options. Here are three of our favorites:
