This is awesome.

The suggestion has been made previously, but I would just like to state my endorsement for Hooters being on the tour this time. Thank you.

Hooters?

Jeez, if you want boobs on your ride, let's just stop at the cheetah or something.

glad to see this return

Just in time for maximum sweating. We need to come up with a creative way to find out, dynamically, where the crawl is at any given time so people can "jump in".

Any thoughts?

Favorite Watering Hole?

I'm about to finalize the route/locations for this thing. Does anyone have any suggestions for bars/drinking locations? Because I would like to add some lesser known bars, or just places that we all haven't been to like a thousand times. Also, what are your favorite bars? Double also, if anyone knows of some fun/free events that we could crash let me know. Because the best stop at the last cyclomania was the Cartoon Network party that we crashed at Manual's tavern.

Definate Stops:

Sidebar
Vickery's
*Super Secret Fun Mystery Stop*

Possibilities:

Trader Vic's
Six Feet Under
Rocky Mountain
The Highlander
Starbar

maybe the standard in place of six feet under?

Cody's picture

While we did Thinking Man's last time...

We do need at least one Decatur bar. I'd vote for Thinking Man's if that was the case.

My Sister's Room is DOA

It burnt while waiting for demolition.

Trinity Triangle Development
The Trinity Triangle development, which includes Dairy Queen, is still a go, according to the developer. The project, which includes apartments and street level retail, was delayed while financing issues were resolved. Efforts are now underway to finalize demolition contracts and permits necessary to remove asbestos and similar hazardous materials. The Relax Inn site is secured by fencing and the city is working with the developer to assure that the former location of My Sister’s Room is also secured.
