lunch ride today

[searsboy]

Three of us rode to San Leon, Texas today for lunch at the place in the pic below. I know it doesn't look like much on the outside, but the food was great. The oysters on the halfshell were fresh, this place is on Galveston Bay, and one of their specialties are broiled oysters...you haven't lived until you've had this!!!
The ride was about 150 miles on another perfect weather day in SE Texas.

Man I love oysters on the half shell. I need to ride down south just to eat.

Half a mile from our house! Yell next time, maybe we can meet you there. And most of their food is great, the oysters Gilhooley are just about the best thing in the world. Our little island of San Leon is one of the best kept secrets of the entire Texas Gulf Coast, so don't spread it around too much.

Snow came back last night. Today is the melting away day. No biking for a few days to wait for roads to clear up of salt and snow.

Not far enough to get oysters unless you want the mountain variety.

September 22nd-ish, 1990 I was up to no good, being a public disturbance on my CX500Turbo, riding all around the Galveston/Texas city area, heh heh.

I loved the area, but it was insanely too hot for this small northern town Canada boyo...I literally nearly died from heatstroke, in September! lol I was used to chopping firewood and shoveling snow by then!

 

[searsboy]

L.B.S. - you don't like our heat...we don't like your cold!
lol

 

[SuperMek]

Bad boy!
You can come here to give me some company and help me shovel snow!

2 hours and 5 inches of fresh snow....and it is still pouring out of the night sky....no kidding.

Am I the only one that noticed the mention of a 150 mile ride to lunch....on a Wednesday?

Somebody's living better than I am, for sure!

He lost me at "oysters on the halfshell" YUCK! Might as well said Liver. At least he got a ride in.

We're in Webster, but the in-laws live in Baycliff and we're down that way all of the time. If you guys decide to go, let me know and I'll meet you. Can you imagine 3 NC700x's outside that place, it would be awesome.

It's called unemployed and, aside from the riding opportunities, it's not living better!

Sorry to hear about the unemployment....but with time to ride and oysters for lunch, you're making the most of it, at least.
