Ride to Eat destinations

[stevejonesmo]

Sorry if this is not the right forum to post this... couldn't really see one that fit.

Anyway, I put together a GPS/Mapping friendly Ride-To-Eat list on a website called ridetoeat.com

The main features are that there are hot links to google maps for each restaurant, and there are links that allow you to export the data for use in your GPS or mapping program.

It's fairly well populated, but there are big holes. The site depends on entries from riders. It only takes a moment to add an entry.

Some woefully under-represented states out there still. If you know of a good RTE spot in North Dakota... how about entering it at http://ridetoeat.com/rte/add ?

Current state/entry count:

United States
Alaska (2)	Alabama (26)	Arkansas (19)	Arizona (24)	California (91)	Colorado (27)

It's not only already in there, it's in the Hall of Fame!

[E-man]

have to have Primanti's in Pittsburgh and Dennys Beer Barrel Pub in Clearfield, north east of Pittsburgh by 150 some odd miles

Im a dumbass

Big Jims is decent, Kelly O's is a frequent stop for me

No Primanti's on the list?

Dennys Beer Barrel is a must

[stevejonesmo]

Well, a few people added some... but man, still nothing for:

Cafe Veloce in Kirkland WA?
Zeitgeist in San Francisco?
The Root Beer Saloon in Alto Pass IL?
ANYPLACE in the Black Hills, Wyoming or North Dakota?

If I don't have any of those, I know there are LOTS more great Ride to Eat destinations I am missing...

Just suggesting them here doesn't work... you have to go to http://ridetoeat.com/rte/add and enter the information... it's as painless as I could make it!

I could list several nice places in Indiana, but I don't do longitude and latitude

Cafe Veloce

Has average Italian food, its two good points are the 10%
discount for arriving by motorcycle and the display of single cylinder Italian race bikes .

There is a Fast Eddie's in Walla Walla, WA. It's a drive in only (no inside seating) but they do have some picnic tables outside for travelers. Seen a few m/c types chowing down there in the past.

+1 Reata Alpine TX

Was there back in October.

Starlight Theater in Terlingua had closed; something about lease or unpaid bills. the whole crew had moved down to the Boathouse and set up operations. However it's open air and full of flies.

Sorry to hear about the Starlite Theatre, that place was a classic. Hard times for restaurants lately. At least the ride is still great around there. It is a classic ride along the River Rd.

I first saw this list on the ST-Owners forum. Great list & I carry it on my netbook when I travel.

You have a lot of the Triple D locations, but several of the later years are missing. There are some I would like to hit on the way to SD & MT this year. Can they be added or is there another place to find them?

Thanks for your work on this. Always looking for a new place to eat on the road.

Moved to the Regional Forums..

Not me boss... it were a straight import from the author

Usually my crack team of data analysts tests the links though. I'll withhold their rations until they get the message that procedures must be followed.

And it's fixed.
