Daytona Bike Week has been a tradition since January 24^th, 1937. This year will be 73 years since it first started. Bike Week started as a race course on 3.2 miles of beach otherwise known as the Daytona 200 or “Handlebar Derby” by locals.

The Florida Classic 2010 will be the 31st year of the national rivalry between Bethune Cookman College (BCC) and Florida A&M University (FAMU).

The Florida Classic football game is held at the Florida Citrus Bowl close to Downtown Orlando. Available parking is always an issue at this event, as the classic tends to attract between 60,000 to 75,000 fans. The stadium offers limited parking at best, so for those not willing to fight the traffic, a shuttle bus can always provide much needed convenient transportation.

The Florida Classic 2010 game date is November 20^th (Saturday), and the kick-off time is 2:30 P.M. EST at the Citrus Bowl. Festivities in around the stadium begin at 9:00 A.M. Saturday morning.

The BCC Wildcats versus the FAMU Rattlers at the Orlando Citrus Bowl provides a superb venue for fans to visit all the Orlando area attractions. It’s also a great opportunity to catch-up with old friends and watch one of the biggest rivalries in college football.

It has been a classic tradition for fans to tailgate at the various accommodations to enjoy pre-game festivities. Orlando area vacation homes allow a unique perspective, as they allow fans to gather in a relaxed setting. Rental homes offer optional amenities such as fully equipped kitchens, private garages and pools, and home barbecue areas to add to the festive atmosphere. If you are visiting friends in Orlando, area vacation homes can comfortably sleep between five persons and as many as seventeen people (in the larger 8 bedroom homes).

Whether you’re a BCC Wildcat or a Florida A&M Rattler fan, Orlando area vacation homes can make for a great stay while enjoying all that Orlando has to offer. It’s also not to early to starting thinking about the 2011 Florida Classic as well.
