Default Ft. Myers Bike Nite - Saturday, January 14th - Let's Ride!

I just want to say how excited I am about the upcoming Bike Nite in Ft Myers. We had a really good time there back in March, looking forward to doing it again. If you look below, I'm re-sharing the pics and write-up from last time. Mark your calendars for Saturday, January 14th, 2017.
Oh, and don't stay at the Econolodge just over the river. I'm sorry to say that I made that Huge Mistake last time.
Hotel Indigo is 4 stars, and by far the best location, but it's $$$. But hey, I gotta make up for the crappy room I got last time, so that's where I am booked.

Ft Myers Bike Night is Awesome. One heck of a party!
At least 5 stages with all different bands playing, many great places to eat and drink, plenty of vendors. And Good People. And MOTORCYCLES.

Me and Yvonne (YCBrewster) met up with Randy (Beak) and his wife Sharon.
Great to meet you, Randy and Sharon. Really nice people.





Lots of Bikes to look at...




And People...



Yvonne fell in Love... with a Ridley.





Eating, Drinking, enjoying the music. And the great weather.





Lots of Vendors. Plenty of stuff to look at.





As darkness fell, more people showed up. But my GoPro was struggling to work in the low lighting conditions. But you can see what a beautiful night it was. A good time was had by all.

For others that may need a hotel, their is a Best Western really close also, just across the bridge. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Probably arrive in Ft. Myers in the early afternoon, likely making a visit to Six Bends Harley-Davidson. Hopeful that we can get a few more of the FLCrew to show up for this one.

Six Bends is not like it was the last time your were here........oh the building is still their and they are a Harley Dealer, but almost every sales person and manager left. It doesn't have the same feel. Everyonel went to Black Widow Harley in Port Charlotte. Black Widow has the bands going on and events almost every weekend and free beer in the showroom. Their building isn't as big as Six Bends, but man the are stealing Six Bends thunder.

I only mentioned a stop at Six Bends, for lack of something better to do (if we happen to show up early to Ft Myers).
Black Widow definitely sounds like "something better" to me. Or I may decide to just start the ride a bit later, go straight downtown.

Who's going with you Steevo?

I can't make this one but may do another weekend if you're planning it. I just need some notice so I can get a dog sitter.
