Title: L.A. (Check), O.C. (Check), I.E.?
Post by: OverCaffeinated on July 07, 2008, 11:12:47 AM
There's IBN on Wednesdays in L.A., and hot spots all over the O.C., but what about the Inland Empire? The coastal locations are too far for me to go to during the week, being in Riverside. So where is there to go that other monster, or duc owners might convene?

IE bike nights are pretty much Ducati-free in my limited exposure.  :(

I think Montclair Yamaha has a bike night every other friday.  I haven't been, but I heard it's pretty big.

There's also Zorba's in Riverside, at least used to be.  Not sure if it's still going on.  Lot of bikes, but I can't speak to the percentage of ducati.

I went to that once.
No Ducs.

5 minutes after I arrived 2 guys on sportbikes jetted in, with the Po-Po right behind.
Seems they had been racing... threats of impounding one bike unless the other bike and owner came back to face the music.
I left.

-insert cheezy reply-
I reckon your right Andy, I guess there is only room for one duc in this town.
-end cheezy reply-

I had gone to Zorbas years before I even got my bike, not exactly what I had in mind. I do doubt they still have bike nights. I guess one option is to take a Thursday off to go to IBN on a Wednesday. Or I could create my own IE IBN, yeah thats what I'll do. [evil] Then I will take over the world.

Dramatic much? [cheeky]

Bobspapa has frequently attended IBN.  He lives in Bakersfield, 120ish miles one way.

Speeddog has occasionally attended IBN.  He lives in the I.E.

You can do it! [thumbsup]

Eventually I will stop being a sissy girl and attend. I also wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything happening in my backyard. Thanks y'all for the input.
