LEESBURG, Fla. – Leesburg Bikefest, which would have taken place in April if not for the coronavirus pandemic, officially has a new date for later this year.
Organizers announced Wednesday that the annual motorcycle festival will instead take place Nov. 13 through Nov. 15. “We chose this date as to not conflict with other national motorcycle events," CEO of the Leesburg Partnership Joe Shipes said. “Final event plans will be subject to the CDC guidelines for major events.” All major events and festivals across Central Florida have been canceled or postponed since mid-March, when COVID-19 started to spread in the community.
