DAYTONA BEACH -- Friday morning some motorcycle lovers are taking to the streets for a very political cause -- rallying for tax reform. The bikers want to show their support for the FairTax Act currently being considered by Congress. Representatives said Biketoberfest is a perfect opportunity for them to get their views heard. Supporters of the FairTax Act believe that replacing income tax with a national sales tax would greatly improve the economy of the United States. One biker News 13 spoke with said bikers love freedom, and that's why they are supporting this issue. "We need more freedom, more money in our pockets. This is a real stimulus because you take your whole paycheck home," Said Mike McClain, a supporter of the FairTax Act. Participants in the rally are meeting at City Island around 9:40 a.m. to start the ride. McClain said that next year they are planning on taking their campaign on the road to 48 states.
