Do you go to bike nights in your area? - Page 2

I don't ride a stretched bike or a stunt bike so I really don't fit in at the bike nights here.

We dont really have a "Bike Night". The usual group I ride with doesnt gather for shit like that but a lot of the riders in this city do park at a coffee shop and talk about drag racing all night. We dont call that a Bike night though. We call that "Every Night"

I enjoy seeing other bikes but there isn't a bike night that is reasonable for me to get to.

I haven't in a long time.
My schedule makes it impractical to try to get up early enough to go somewhere and hang out before I have to get ready for work.
Although I might start trying to make it again.

I hang out with a small group occasionally. Don't like the mentality of the morons that show up at the big bike hangout.

There are always 20 to 30 bikes where I stop to warm up and get something to drink.

I don't do bike nights though. When you go on Thursdays there are hundreds of bikes. Ill roll through sometimes because I forget about it. But I never stop. I'm not a fan of crowds.

The ones at the japanese bike dealers here in the triad are always squid-fests

The ones that carolina BMW/Ducati hold have some very interesting people, and Jason always has models in bikini's on a runway sporting new gear...so his are ALWAYS worth going too!!!!

Being this is one of the homes of Harley manufacturing, we don't go unless we want hearing loss.

They started a sportbike night this summer near the house, since they got ran off from the last place. Found out quickly why. Seems if there is an audience, the stunters show up. Wouldn't be bad, but they damaged two of the waitresses cars and several other bikes.

Since we are new in town, no one talked to us, so we didn't go back.

I used to go when i lived in nyc, but mostly because it gave us an excuse to see all our friends, since many of us worked around the area. There wasn't too many squids either, and the food was pretty good.

Here, I haven't been to any, but I'm also been antisocial lately.

I went one time. Full of people my age (half riders/half squids). Not a single hello. Fuck em.
