    What area do you want to meet, Fuquay like you had mentioned in a previous thread? Any ideas for what kinds of eats we are up for? I would not mind a burger type place, like Ruby Tuesdays, or even a Mcdonalds? I think those two cover the spectrum:D .

    I should be able to make it. One of the few places I've ate at in Fuquay is a China Buffet that is usually pretty good. But I'm open to most anything, hopefully not too fancy.

    Sounds like a good idea. No idea on places to eat in Fuguay.

    You want all you can eat, theres a Golden Corral and a CiCi's Pizza. Somewhat fancy burger joints include Applebees, Ruby Tuesday, and Remington Grille. Zaxby's is kind of a fancy fast food place. There is a Chinese restaurant but I am not sure what its called. Of course theres the Mcds, BK, Wendy's, Hardees, Arby's and Bojangles. Taco Bell is also there. My suggestions would be the CiCi's Pizza(love Itallian and all can eat) or the Golden Corral. Both are easy to find and not to crowded on Sunday evenings.

    Forgot to add there is a Smithfield BBQ right beside the GC. Just about any kind of food you would want. We can decide on a meeting place then find out what we want to eat when in town.

    Here's the area in Raleigh (follow link to map) where all the dealerships seem to be converging and moving too.

    This is the Victory dealership with a motorcycle themed eatery attached I believe...

    You can walk to the BMW/Triumph/Vespa/Piaggio dealer Capitol BMW across the street. Mattison (Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Aprilia, Ducati, Husqvarna, Moto Guzzi, etc...) is just up the road.

    Oh, tons of places to eat in this area too...good luck fellas! :freaky

    How about the Ruby Tuesday in Fuquay?

    Sorry dualsporters, I don't have GPS coordinates, you'll have to use an old-timey MAP! :eek1:lol3Or maybe ASK someone for directions! :cry:cry:lol3

    Be ready to eat, drink, tell lies, and compare rides. :wink:

    Here's a picture of me (but I probably won't wear the kilt to ride down). :huh

    WOW... glad I saw this thread in time. I SHOULD be able to make it. It's about 1-1 1/2 hours form Wilmington.... I'll just super-slab it the whole way. I still need to check with my wife and make sure she doesn't already have plans for me for Sunday, though.

    I havnt mentioned it to the wife yet, think I should break it to her now? lol Shouldnt be a problem tho. Even if I dont eat(which is unlikely) I will meet up there for at least a little while.


    Edit: I will ride by tomorrow evening to get the GPS coordinates for you GPS geeks :)

    Well, this will be my first one of these. My name is Robert and I'll be on a black Honda CB750 Nighthawk with cortech soft bags & trunk on it. I guess I'll just look for the other bikes.
