You hear that rumbling sound? It’s not your stomach. It’s thousands and thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts, and they’re rolling into town this week.
Of course, we’re talking about the annual Bikes, Blues & BBQ rally, set to take place in Fayetteville through Saturday, Sept. 21.
The event will once again feature a ton of outdoor live music, the annual barbecue competition, a Miss Bikes, Blues & BBQ pageant, a bike parade, and of course, thousands of motorcycles.
New for this year, the event will also include an air show called Bikes, Blues and Bombers, featuring several historic planes including the world’s only flying B29 Superfortress from WWII.
Here’s a list of what we know is happening at Bikes, Blues & BBQ 2013. For more information about the rally, visit bikesbluesandbbq.org.
