[BHV] Ride and Eat, this Saturday, mmm good !!

Wed Jul 9 10:58:12 EDT 2008

I think you get a free camel after 60 days in Egypt ! Nice going, Don !

The official shuttling plan is for my van to head to Burdett on Thursday night after the ride. Anyone interested in going on Saturday can put a bag of clothes, wine, beer, etc in the van so it'll be there on Saturday after the ride. Bill and Lou Lodico will be driving the van back to Elmira after dinner on Saturday evening. There's room for tons of bikes and two extra passengers. Not sure what the law is on others riding home illegal alien style in the way back, maybe Bill knows.

  Paul,

  Will Deb be doing any Tarot card readings Saturday evening as well?

  60 days in Egypt;  I could use a nice evening like that. I doubt that I will be home by Saturday.

  Cheers,

  Don

  Lula and I are on board.

  We may need to reserves space in van for tandem to get tandem back to Elmira whenever you return.   If so we may be able to return at least one rider and bike in addition to ourselves in car Saturday night, possibly two riders and bikes if I throw a rack on back.  We'll shuttle a car up before hand.  Let me know if you need a shuttle help for the van.

  By now many of you have seen me blow past you on my big red tandem, a big grin on my face, and, trust me, I hear you saying, " He ain't so bad, he couldn't ride like that without Deb on the back making that thing go". (and you're right ! ) Then you think to yourself, " What's that chic all about anyway, I heard she has a cafe or something like that, and the leftover goodies she shares are out of this world, what makes her tick, hmmm ?"  Well, here's your big chance to find out ! This Saturday from 5:00 until 8:00 Deb's place, the Gristmill Cafe, in Burdett is open for one of her famous seafood dinners. And let me tell ya, I can't stop drooling from all the ideas she's flown by me ! I believe the final choices are baked fish fry or a shrimp dish that I couldn't do justice to if I tried to describe it here, but it made me say, "oh, baby, don't stop, tell me more". So she went on about home made ice cream and a hummingbird cake dessert she's making, and, well I can't tell you any more because I passed out, fainted dead away from overload ! She had to wave a fresh baked scone under my nose to bring me back around !

  There will be a couple locals playing ol' tyme music to get your feet stompin'. You can bring your own beer or wine if you like ( Deb encourages it ! ) and, shucks, when the bottles are empty you can join along with the musicians ! Sit inside or out, the front porch is perfect for watching the cars roll by, very Mayberry, or sit on the back deck and listen to the birds and water going over the falls ( actually, the birds don't go over the falls, just the water does ) 

  So my big idea is to ride to Burdett from the shop at 3:30 this Saturday. I'm thinking Ridge Rd to Odessa then Texas Hollow and drop down to Burdett. It's just about 30 miles. A nice gentle pace, just enough to work up an appetite. Arrive around 5:30 (unless Texas Hollow has other plans for us) and commence to having a good ol' time in Burdett !

  Since this is a one way ride we'd need to coordinate with some non riding SOs to meet there for rides home. Try the ol'," I'll buy you dinner if you do, Honey", that should do the trick.  I can put bikes in my van and drop them off later or something like that. Or just drive up and eat, your riding buddies won't bust on you too bad, right ? :p

  Sounds fun, huh ? And keep in mind, Deb's motto about her food, which she's passionate about, is, " it's delicious and nutritious !!"   And she's right !!
