Looking for a small hole in the wall to grab a few? Go to Granny's in Winchester. It is on east bound Rt7, just east of town.

Always down for a beer and a ride. There's a couple of places out here in Woodbridge on the river... Electric Palm and Madigans.

Little last minute, I just learned that there is a Honda dealer (I know, I know) in Manassas that's having an outdoor event with free food. May not be our dealership, but it's free food and bikes until Patriot or Whitt's has an event.

9105 Mathis Ave in Manassas Va

Anyway, it seems there are quite a few of us that live in Manassas and I would love to get together with fellow riders. I am new to riding (bought my first bike, a '13 Ninja 650 last August and used it to commute back and forth from Manassas and Arlington. I picked up my '14 Sportster 48 week before last and LOVE it).

Every weekend where the temps were above mid '60s I always drive the same route...
234 to 28, Jump onto 619/Brislow and ride all the way down to Rt1 by Quantico front gate. Take Rt1 down to 610/Garrisonville rd and follow 610 ALL the way up to Aden which leads back to 28 and then I head home.

I popped this up last year I think and someone said Afterlife 360 in Manassas has bikes outside on weekends. But this bar is in Manassas and charge $$ for cover charge. I think drinks is a whopping $8.

I actually want to find a bar where we can go and shoot the breeze and drink for a couple hours. Bar that is not exactly in town but in the outlying areas. Yeah we could start our own.

Someone said Hard Times in Manassas...that place has closed and I believe Whitts Harley patrons in Manassas go there but that place has closed.

I can confirm that Hard Times Cafe in Manassas is NOT closed, wife and I were just there this past Friday shooting pool (can still smoke inside also, which is a HUGE plus for bar goers). Not sure if you meant Whits Harley is closed but, I can also confirm that they are NOT, I was just there this past saturday picking up an owners manual for my sporty.

Granny's in Winchester is by far the cheapest place in the area. Good hole in the wall atmosphere. Bikes there all the time.

I'm here for the week visiting my parents. pick a place and let's meet up. I have a buddy who just picked up his first hd and I'm trying to get him out and about. I've seen some bikes at reston town center before but only a few on a couple occasions.
