Editor’s Note: We posted Rogue’s story in the Sunday Post, and then he sent this, “I fucked up and sent you the article about the Broken Spoke from Bike Week, last March.”
Actually, many of the same players were in attendance, but here’s the roaming Rogue’s story from Daytona just a couple of weeks ago. The screwy story slipped into the Sunday Post yesterday, if you want to see it. It’s in the Cantina with topless shots.–Bandit
During Biketoberfest as with most motorcycle events around the country, bars and saloons are a big part of the event. Hell, they are popping up like weeds in sidewalk cracks. With so many, how does one choose? They usually pour the same booze. Here at Bikernet we post information prior to the event to help folks decide. Afterwards we post a few highlight articles about some of what we saw and did in the hopes that you see yourself in one of the photos and to also let others know what fun people were having.
There are numerous publications available at the events and even a publication named Best Biker Bar News put out by Rick Rose. So many bars and barmaids, and so little time, and of course ya gotta be careful of your level of consumption, so as to not catch a costly DUI and really ruin the party.
The Broken Spoke is one of the most famous Biker Bars in the country, from the Black Hills of Sturgis, to the endless sunshine of Daytona and the majestic lakes of New Hampshire—according to their propaganda. And they are the only motorcycle bar with locations at the oldest rallies. I personally like the joint and have always had a good time at all of the locations. So I keep coming back.
The location in Daytona is situated at 1151 N. US Highway 1, Ormond Beach and is better known as the Ormond Strip because of the numerous bars and party venues in the area.
Entertainment is knockout, two-buck beers, and fair-priced adult beverages also make my day. Jack Shit was the comedic Emcee and a show by himself, with hot entertainers like Jasmine Cain, Joe Santana, Leaving Eden and the Farrell Webber Band are great as well.
Something is going on everyday like ride-in bikes shows and burn out contests, which are always crowd pleasers.
Now that Biketoberfest is over they are preparing for Daytona Bike Week and you can find out more about that and what they are up to at http://brokenspoke.com/saloons/. And of course, Bikernet will keep you constantly posted as to the entertainment planned for the next event. I swear I’ll try to keep my stories straight.
