Hijinx, and anyone else in North Jersey,
A regular (at least for now. I'll be moving to the southwest soon) sunday ride for me involves the mountains and lakes around Bergen and passaic counties with a late afternoon stop at a great Biker Bar called Mountain Rest in West Milford, NJ. After a beer or two and some live country music, I like to hit the road a little longer (usually another trip around the lakes) and then stop for dinner and live rock n roll at Big John's on old rt 23 in Newfounland, N.J.
I highly recommend both places. Mountain Rest for the original atmosphere (It's the only place in N.J that I've ever been that caters to horse riders of both the steel and organic variety at the same time) and Big John's for the food and lively crowds.
Also, Dingo's Den on Van Houten Ave in Clifton is a pretty good spot, especially if they are having a scheduled biker related event.
