Traffic on Main Street in Leesburg, Florida is always "motorcycles-only" during the 3-day rally that draws 200,000 to 300,000 bike enthusiasts to the little town in Central Florida.

Also on stage Saturday night was the AC/DC tribute-band Highway to Hell.





The rally was a joint venture from the beginning between the Leesburg Downtown Merchants and Rat's Hole Custom Bike Shows. The 15th Leesburg Bikefest featured the largest number of Rat's Hole custom-built bikes ever on display at a rally bike show.
