WHERE TO RIDE &
WHAT TO DO THERE
For as good as that shiny new cruiser of yours looks in the garage all dolled up in whatever customization
you've heaped upon it, you'll probably want to take it out for some actual riding. It's easier for people to
marvel at your coolness when you go where they are instead of waiting for them to come to you. If a mob
of strangers shows up in your garage, you better grab a machete because it means you have a zombie
problem. Normal folks don't do that en masse.
Live masses hang out at places like motorcycle rallies. Not only is the rally circuit a good time for partying
with like-minded riders, but hopping in the saddle and hitting the road to get to them is at least half the
fun. Here's our list of some of the bigger events you can find throughout the rest of 2019.

Daytona Bike Week is the unofficial start to riding
season for many of us, especially in the northern
states. Nearly a half million eager riders are
expected to invade the Florida beach town for 10
days of two-wheeled mayhem covering the full
gamut of motorcycling, from the infamous Rat's
Hole custom bike show at the boardwalk to the
official start of racing season: World Superbike's
Daytona 200. If you're into pre-WWII racing
machines, you'll also want to check out the Sons
of Speed vintage race.
