We go to the small local bar's on friday nights (Mustang Sally's in Holiday,FL) they get a good crowd for a small off the wall joint ,maybe 50 - 125 bike's , many,many dring soda or water , so drinking beer or whatever isn't a big deal ,they do a best bike prize.Generally a good time , with "biker game's" too.
Also do occasional wed night's at Quaker Steak & Lube in Pinnellas Park....4000 bikes on wed night..EVERY WED,quite impressive , especially as they sometimes come in groups of 50 or so!Great food too!!!

as with anything else, it's what YOU make of it. if you go with a group of your friends, it's nice for dinner and conversation. or just hanging out. or meeting new friends.
4000 bikes on a wed nite? WOW. that has to be a record.

Wednesday nite is bike nite at Apache Choppers in weatherford ... $10.00 cover, pay yer money in the parts dept. pick up yer vacum packed ribeye steak, take it outside in the parkin lot and throw on one of huge "permanent" grills, with all the other folks, cook till done and grab some trimmings from the "sides" table. Keg beers, live band, awesome bike show and LOTs and LOTS of *****. Its a last man standing type party too (c;
Thursdays are bike nite everywhere around here, the bar b que joints, biker bars, hell even the radio station The Lone Star 92.5 has a bike night every Thursday at a different bar.

I'm afraid that I have aged beyond the bike nights. The wife and I went to one. We must be fugly because no one said a word to us. Or maybe we weren't dressed all in leather. I enjoyed walking around and looking at some of the bikes. I don't drink like I used to back in the dark ages and so that was not an attraction. There were many people drinking that I wondered how in the world were they going to get home safely. There was a live band but, like I said, I guess I have aged beyond standing in front of a band and listening to it. We both enjoyed looking at the bikes and made an early exit. It was O.K. but, not something I would do again.

I usually find myself parking with the sport bike group on bike night.Old habits are hard to break.
Seriously though,my only problem with bike night,is no one ever rides.It usually amounts to 3 miles to the hang out,check the bikes,go eat,and go 3 miles back home.I also don't care for riding in traffic,or riding the country roads at night.
The best thing is to hit the road early for a good ride,and then arive at the bike night hang out.You'll enjoy it much more.

They got one at a local Hooter's. One of the waitress knocked over 1 bike and caused the domino effect. Thank God it was only crotch rockets that fell. No offense to the sport bike crowd. I hate it for them
