I went to the first weekend of Bike week on bike for the first time in a few years. Seems to be a like Times Square, a crowd of people looking at a crowd of people. Lots of tee shirts.

I just don't get the little kid thing, really it's OK to have strollers and slightly older kids on Weirs at 10PM Saturday night? The safety factor of bikes and people mixed would be enough for me, but a good chuck of the merchandise is not kid friendly.

Daver, I'm not sure you can correlate engine size with safety. The scariest riders are new riders, either on 600cc sport bikes or 96" big twins.
