banana's had to shut down for a little while two weeks ago, we've still been having bike night and the first bike night that they where shut down, the owner was there and said it was cool for us to show up and still carry on, well last night things where a little different, the parking lot was filled with cops and they where telling us that the owner did not want us there and made us all leave.


Edit: one of my friends asked if I ever go up there, because it was on the news about them making us leave. cops nfloorisson

I never made it out there because I just got into riding and stuff. Saw a video of what goes on there though.

it was pretty fun times when we got to go and hang out and watch ppl doing some stuntin, Im guessing the vid that you saw was the one on www.uponone.com that was from a couple months ago before the cops started busting things up.

I just got word last night - I've been out of town with events, and thought I could go this week - When I told a buddy, he told me that Banana's had been sold, and the new owners wife wanted to put an end to bike night, and asked the law to help.

So - Looks like the old riverfront place again! They have better food anyway!

I take it she doesn't know much about business.

Yep - It amazed me, too - but the waterfront bar just down the road will still be happy to have us! I think that thier food is better anyway!

 

[halliwood]

I haven't had their food, but thats where I was last week and it was still a fun time.

fun times, granted it was better at bannana's but still fun to be around so many that are into riding.

My brother and I are all ready for this upcoming roadtrip to my Gram's in Marion, Illinois.........gonna spend about 4 1/2 hours saddle time!!!

 

[P1agu3]

Yup, I'm going to miss bananas on the river. I been going there for like 2 years now, it was alot of fun while it lasted. That video that was on uponone dot com was made by me and my brother. We own wildcatriders dot com so if there are any lexington riders out there join up w/ us on the forums. We get rides together at least 2 times a week.

 

[Teknikal]

I'm not from lexington...I post on louisvilleriders.com or 502streetscene.net

My dad used to do a lot of advertising down there (Gateway Cycles). I haven't heard him mention the place in awhile though. I should see him tomorrow and I'll find out what he has to say about it. As far as I know he was good friends with the owners.

 

[PJFZ1]

I'll be headed down there tonight! It's still going on at the Riverside, just not at Banana's!

 

[PJFZ1]

And it was rolling just fine - pretty good turnout, good food, and no LEO's there...

 

[PJFZ1]

We'll be there again this Thursday (the 25th) come on out and say hi!
