    Default NASCAR Spyder rides

    Starting about April 10, 2018, my Spyder and I will be in Bristol, Richmond and Talladega for races on the weekends.
    Hopefully the weather will allow some rides during the week.

    I'll buy lunch for anybody who will show me a good place to eat........that isn't TOO far from the track.

    Won't make Darlington this year.

    I like to do my races at least two at a time and Darlington doesn't match up with anything else I want to do this year.

    My toy hauler only gets about 8 MPG.

    I lived in Richmond for four long years back in the 70's and never found a restaurant I would recommend and here is why:

    A restaurant on the West End was advertising "Mexican food coming to the South" for weeks. Back then it was very unusual to find Mexican food anywhere in the East so we (my co-workers and I) headed out with mouths watered. I ordered a burrito - pretty classic Mexican food and difficult to screw up. It came.....covered in gravy!

    That experience was almost as bad as going to a Chinese restaurant in Cedar Rapids, Iowa and being served cornbread as an appetizer.

    NEWS FLASH: Mexican food has arrived. All over the southeast and eastern seaboard coast.

    Here is how I began my post in the event you skipped over it: "I lived in Richmond for four long years back in the 70's.....".

    I don't imagine Mexican food in the East is anything to brag about.

    I know it's been a long time but.........a LOT of people in Richmond would be really upset with you characterizing them as "the East" instead of " the South".


    And the food is pretty much the same all over, at least in my experience.

They are east of me and I am south of them. I never really cared much for what Richmonders/Virginians thought. They are a very "unique" bunch. Still fighting a losing battle 150+ years after it ended. Happiest day of my life was Richmond in my rear view mirror.

    Quite the contrary. I've had "Mexican food" from coast to coast and border to border......and a LOT of it IS pretty much the same.

    Now.....you don't have to agree with that but throwing around insults isn't nice.
