Seriously, we both noticed that the crowd was an "older" one, both the bikers and the "tourists".

I also have really noticed the aging of bikers over the past 2-3 years, whether it is Laconia, Daytona or Myrtle each Bike weeks.
That is the problem that LBW and motorcycling in general is facing. Younger people are priced out of buying new bikes, getting sticker shock from hotels during rally week and voting with their feet. Facebook is free and riding is far from it.
