Sunshine and bikes bring good vibes to Thunder Beach in Panama City Beach

Motorcyclists gathered at The Bike Rack near M.B. Miller County Pier during Thunder Beach in Panama City Beach from Oct. 21-25. The venue included vendors, motorcycle services, tattoo artists, professional stunt riders, live music and a big bar. For fun, attendees took part in contests including burnouts, frozen T-shirt competitions and booty-shake contests. Event organizers said proceeds from The Bike Rack will benefit organizations including the VFW, the American Legion, Beach Care Services and a local women's shelter. "It has been the best turnout we've ever had," Kevin Nelson, who operates The Bike Rack with his wife, Tina, told the News Herald before one of the burn-out contests. "We have so many motorcycles in town during Thunder Beach that there's a need for a venue like this. Without it, riders overflow into local bars and other areas.

"The rally circuit is similar to a traveling caravan," Nelson said, explaining the next event. "Vendors, bartenders and other participants move from Daytona to
