Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge Orlando on Vacation

Ok guys might not have posted much but still poke my nose in every now and then.

Any way to the point any of you guys from Orlando and if so can you recommend a bike hire place that will sort me out a bike and some kit. Prefer to hire a Triumph if possible next would be a Hardley and at a push something Japanese.

Next point any decent bikey places for me to visit i.e. pubs bike stores etc. I will have a car so even if its a bit away am not to worried. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here in O-ville, you have three choices.
1) ANY H/D dealer
2) Eagleriders (about HALF the cost of H/D)
3) Triumph rentals

Google "motorcycle rental"

The first two are 24hr, unlimited miles, and you pick-up & drop off at store. The Triumph rentals USE to be delivered to your location only, and 4 or 8 hr. only. At our last Rally, the Triumph dude said the terms are more varied now.

MY favorite pubs are ALL on the same city block in Orlando, about 2 miles (YOU figure THAT one out ) from the center of downtown on Robinson street, just one block east of Bumby ave., in Orlando's "Milk District".
1) Sandwich Bar
2) Space Bar
3) Bull 'N' Bush (An authentic English pub, IF you can tolerate THOSE people)
4) Sportstown

The first two listed above have Bike Night on Thursday evenings from 7-??:00 PM. I won't be there tomorrow night, as this week is our "deep winter" week. Temp's only into the 60's!!! BURRRR!!!

Enjoy!

Ryan might rent you his...he never rides it. you could check with moe too i think he has half a dozen now

When are you planning on visiting?

Coming over 2nd August for two weeks. Need some sun on my back. To be honest its one location I have been wanting to do for a long time.

Don't want to spend all my bloody time at parks so thought a bit of a busmans and get in some bike bars and if possible get a bike and get away from the tourist haunts.
