Ormond Beach, FL, Love’s to offer fuel-and-go only through event
Love’s announced it will offer fuel-and-go only in Ormond Beach, FL, for Biketoberfest from Oct. 15-18.Thousands of motorcyclists will converge on the Daytona Beach/Ormond Beach area Oct. 15-18 for Biketoberfest. Daytona Harley Davidson (DHD), located next door to Love’s in Ormond Beach, is a major participant of the annual motorcycle event and rally. According to Love’s, DHD’s involvement causes unusually high traffic volume in and around the area, and Love’s said it can only allow trucks to fuel and go. Long-term parking won’t be available at this location throughout Biketoberfest. In past years, the increased traffic volumes for truckers waiting to fuel, combined with the significant influx of cars, trucks and motorcycles, has caused severe traffic jams, forcing state police to close the exit. Love’s wants to provide the necessary fueling for professional drivers, and in order to ensure that is still available, drivers will need to continue moving in and out at that exit.
