Friday 10/13/17 Ride

Fellow Riders,
  • If we can keep the rain away this Friday my plan is to scoot on up to Brevard, NC for some lunch at Magpie Meat and Three.  We’ve been to Brevard many times but not to this place so let’s give it a shot.  Join us at the Key Mart parking area for a 10:30 AM departure.  Hope you can make it.     Dan


  • Friday the 13th, an iffy, rainy forecast, what could go wrong?  Well, today for six riders, nothing went wrong and the worst we had was a little fog (and a couple of big rain drops) on our windshields.  This would not have counted as a bike by wash by OG Bob.  The six riders, including Dan, were Len, me, Steve G., Gary, and Ed.  Dan took us through Pickens county via Hwy 178 as we crossed into North Carolina.  The Magpie Meat & Three was a couple blocks off the main drag in Brevard.  The area looks to be in transition to become a trendy destination.  Thanks to a text to Sue by Dan, they were ready for us when we arrived.  The service started a little slow, but was good and our meal came fairly quickly.  The food was good and included some of their barbecue and smoked sausage.  They could have used a little more variety in their sauce selection, but it seemed everyone enjoyed their order.  Based on the extensive craft beer list on the large blackboard, this is someplace worth trying when not on a motorcycle.  The ride home took us down Hwy 276 to Hwy 11, and got us home in good time. With gray skies and no rain, it was another great day on two wheels.      Steve

  

Only the REALLY cool bikes got to park next to the door.....
