THE WORLD FAMOUS RATS HOLE CUSTOM CHOPPER SHOW. 54th ANNUAL… WOW!

Post by Jack McIntyre

The Rat’s Hole Custom Bike Show is pure, unfiltered Bike Week history, and this year it thunders into Daytona louder than ever as it marks its 54th annual show during Daytona Bike Week. For more than half a century, the Rat’s Hole has been the place where backyard builders, chrome junkies, and metal magicians roll out their finest work—no velvet ropes, no corporate polish, just raw steel, sweat equity, and attitude. This show has always been about craftsmanship over hype, where hand-built choppers, wild customs, and old-school iron sit proudly under the Florida sun while crowds lean in close to catch every weld, grind mark, and detail. In a world of cookie-cutter bikes, the Rat’s Hole remains a defiant middle finger to boring, proving once again in its 54th year that Daytona Bike Week isn’t just an event—it’s a living, breathing motorcycle culture, and this show is one of its beating hearts.

It a full day of custom motorcycles, tattoo contest, and this year having steel trophies… cool stuff.

Right across the bridge from the Rats hole is our sponsor, Sickboy Motorcycles. Make sure to grab some cool biker apparel & accessories before heading out to the shows.
