Sitting along Interstate 95 in Ormond Beach awaits the world's largest Harley-Davidson location.

"We have something for everyone," says Mandy Rossmeyer, who plans events for Destination Daytona.

Also in this corner of Volusia County, one of the longest names for a Harley-Davidson retailer: "Bruce Rossmeyer's Daytona Harley-Davidson and Destination Daytona is so big that, like a theme park, it has an information desk.

"I was 8 years old, and my dad brought home a Yamaha GT50 or something like that," Mandy Rossmeyer recalls of her first ride.

Today, Mandy Rossmeyer is keeping her father's legacy alive. Bruce Rossmeyer set out to create an attraction dedicated to the bike.

"I would describe it the way my dad envisioned it: It's 150 acres of biker's paradise," Mandy Rossmeyer said. "And not only for bikers, but anyone driving by on 95."

Here, you can lose yourself in more than 100,000 square feet under one roof, like Harley-Davidson rider Stephen Santangelo, who was visiting Florida from Connecticut.

"It's just a destination," Santangelo shares. "It's a big Harley place. A lot to see and do. A lot of bikes."

And a lot of shirts. There are 45,000 shirts, even tropical ones like those seen on Florida on a Tankful.

"It's kind of exciting," Santangelo said. "Just the sheer size of it."

Visitors can tour the rows of bikes and then take the escalator upstairs to see an art collection dedicated to the open road from painter David Uhl.

"David Uhl is only one of two artists I believe that are allowed to paint for Harley- Davidson," Mandy Rossmeyer said.

Early outlaws racing the train, kids working on dad's bike and even a female motorcyclist loving horses are subjects that Uhl painted. Several of the works of art depict Daytona Beach's love of the motorcycle.

There are also vintage bikes on display, along with a peek into the maintenance bay. Mandy Rossmeyer said they learned giant picture windows into the service area were a must.

"People are pretty particular about letting their motorcycles out of their sight," Mandy Rossmeyer said.

A ramp from the ground floor leads to the second-floor workshop. A freight elevator can also can lift an injured bike to the second floor. After a tune up, roll over to the Pig Stand.

"We do it low and slow," said Shane Westervelt, the general manager of Daytona Pig Stand BBQ.

The full-service restaurant, known for branding its buns with the Pig Stand logo using a hot iron, specializes in beef brisket and pulled pork. That takes planning ahead before your visit.

"We start at approximately at 8 o'clock in the evening, and we're bright and early in the morning checking on it," Westervelt says.

Dessert here is an apple crisp that's reminiscent of his grandmother's recipe.

And like a theme park, there's even a hotel on site with motorcycle parking.
