You can usually catch me at Handle Bar on Saturday nights. I'm not on a Harley. I didn't see any reason to buy one for the little 1 1/2 years I had left when I started looking for a bike. The food is great there.
I can help with the skating but I have a problem with the stopping. You may have to figure that out on your own. Falling down works but there must be a better way.
What part of East Coast are you staying in? I'm at the Bayshore. I'm usually out Saturday or Sunday morning rollerblading and sometimes get over to the lagoon to wakeboard if I can find someone to go with me. I get down to Marina to the driving range sometimes too.
