RT-S PE#0032
Carolina Spyder Ryders
As for rides:
I have noticed a lot of the groups do a Gathering or RTE (Ride-To-Eat) instead of a orginized ride. Afterall, everyone knows where that one GREAT unknown "eat'n spot" is, right?
Let's hear some ideas...pick a desitination...set a date/time...and RTE. Who knows, it could become a regular thing.... always a new locations.(remember the destination is the ryde)
I'll start with an Example:
General McArthur's BBQ, Laurinburg, NC (http://www.generalmcarthurs.com/)
Spyder Bytes: Kury ISO Grips, GL1500 Windshield Vent w/ accent, Heel-Toe Shifter(inspectorgadget), HMT Brake Light, 12v outlet in frunk, GPS-Phone mount w/ case( techmounts.com), seat seal, Right Side Grill Covers( customdynamics.com), Fan Can10(I SCIrides.com), CAT Shields( SpyderPops.com), Elka Shocks, PressurePro TPMS, Cobra CB....and of course Cup Holders( mycupholders.com)

I beg to differ 2Gunns - I've always heard it as; "It's NOT the destination, It’s the ride?!!" With that in mind, I recommend Christas Country Store http://www.christas.com Excellent food - good motorcycle gathering - Great service and ..... you can't beat the roads getting there regardless which direction your are coming from.
Also .. there's always Snappy Lunch in Mt Airy. World famous Pork Chop Sandwich http://www.yelp.com/biz/snappy-lunch-mount-airy ..Check out the reviews. Also, here is a short YouTube video. The roads in the area are good and, Snappy Lunch is right down the hill from the BRP http:://youtu.be/6RIZhI10yLE

OOOHHH!!! I know a place!! De-lic-ious in Hickory http://www.oldgermanschnitzelhaus.com/
There is a popular place in Greensboro called Natty Greens. Great food and microbrewery with several awards.
I think this is a great idea. Why don't we do this for the meet and greet...we could go to Lexington Barebecue, 2gunns!

I know what that means too!!! No, I don't speak German, but I was so impressed by the country and people when I was there that I tried to learn a little bit. I would love to learn more. I fully intend to go back again. Gotta save up and buy me Rosetta Stone for German.

With a last name of Brewer, yep my ancesters on dads side are German and from the Hamburg area. His mothers maiden name was Holle (Holly) also German. On moms side we are Irish/Scottish. Hmmm, sounds like a new thread on the general discussion forum, what's your ancestral background? I did several short tours in Germany when I was in the Air Force.

Ride to Eat
Our favorite is Louise's Rockhouse in Linville Falls, about 1/2 miles off the BRP or after a terrific ride up 181 to 183 from Morganton.
Make sure that you leave room for home baked pie (I recommend Forestberry) and take home some home-made jam,

I suggest Shatley Springs Inn in Crumpler NC. Family style meals. Just north of Jefferson NC and is a nice ride.
