Tucked out in Welaka is a very cool spot with fun people on both sides of the bar! When Waylon and Tonya decided to start a monthly bike night they invited us out and we were pleasantly surprised by how many peeps we knew from Palm Coast and even Daytona that rode out for the evening! This is a bar owned by a couple who really love to get on the bike and ride!

We have seen Waylon walk away with first place at a Yuengling sponsored tattoo contest at the Boot Hill Saloon during Bike Week, run into them in Palatka at 3-D Saloon where Amy and Donnie packed the place with the band Framing the Red and spotted them at OB’s for a Wednesday night bike night. Usually it is hard to get bar owners to step away from their own establishment for an evening!

Well Long’s hosted a bike night with live music that included a chick playing drums which were a variety of buckets, put on a delicious spread of appetizers and featured $1.50 domestics! We coerced the crowd into a group shot and they could not have been nicer as it was a bit hot on the July evening…leaving the AC for the parking lot was asking a lot!

The trip out to Welaka is a beautiful country ride whether you are riding in from Ocala, Deland, Daytona or St. Augustine. Their bike night will be on the 2nd Thursdays beginning at 6pm. Take your bike out of the garage, dust off the cobwebs and ride out to Welaka for an enjoyable evening. Their ad is on the page next to this article featuring different nights when they have live music!

Thanks for a great evening guys and for joining the Thunder Roads Florida family!
