Days are getting longer and warmer. Froggy recently let me have it on Facebook because I visited a Dinosaur BBQ (the one in Brooklyn) without notifying him. So in that regard: Anyone up for a Stamford gathering in the next month or two?

I can't ride the Zero there, though, so you'll have to settle on my trusty old K1200LT... Since I didn't opt for quick-charge capability the only two Dinosaurs I can make on the Zero are in Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Check to see if they are open, they were closed due to a fire

Fire at the Dino? Damn, that didn’t make the local paper. If they don’t open back up soon could always try Hoodoo Browns in Ridgefield again.

Hoodoo Brown's was excellent.

Which one are you talking about? The Manhattan location was closed this past winter due to a fire during the Javits Show but has reopened already.

Scared me last night when I passed the Dinosaur and saw the FDNY Ladder truck in front . . . I suspect it was just a food break.

I don't see anything about a fire at the Stamford Dinosaur BUT I did find a story about an employee of theirs dealing drugs in the parking lot. Maybe that's why they were shut down? As far as I can tell, they're open now.

Apparently the restaurant they opened in Baltimore is closed after just two years. I'm not happy they're opening so many restaurants as (based on past experience) that will dilute their menu as they attempt to standardize to "cut costs."

Sorry, bad info that I passed along about the fire- but they were closed. I wasn't that impressed with that place anyway...not after being in Texas.

I'd be willing to give this place a shot.

Texas BBQ is primarily beef, and as a friend from North Carolina once told me: "If it ain't pig meat, it ain't BBQ."

That's just a LITTLE far for a day ride for those of us in the Northeast. Feel free to open a thread for the Southeast, though.

I think that a Meet-N-Eat in early July would be a good idea...

It ain't the weather; we've had get togethers in March, April, May and June in the past. It's just that I'm going to be traveling to Massachusetts in July and I'd enjoy hitting Hoodoo Brown's or Big Ws or damn near anywhere that people want to congregate for a meal and a BS session.

By the way, if no one comes up with anything else, I will be stopping for lunch at the Troy Dinosaur again on Saturday, June 8 on my way home from the Lake George Americade just as I did last year...

Looking at schedules and such, it now looks like I'll be at the Short Track races in Weedsport on the 13th and hitting Massachusetts on the 15th. So, the 20th or 21st would be good for me.

Then again, the Dinosaur in Syracuse is only 10 of 15 minutes from the track in Weedsport. I could roll into Weedsport a day early and hit the Dinosaur for dinner on Friday evening.

Actually; now that I think of it, that sounds like a good idea!

That's a bit far for me for a day trip for lunch... 282 miles one way... : (

The Troy location is over a hundred miles closer to me, but likely not convenient for you.

I'll be going right through Troy on my way to Mass. If you want to meet there on Sunday the 14th, that seems quite possible. I bet we could even talk Froggy into showing up, and there are other Buellers fairly close by who might want to get together for an old fashioned Meet&Eat/BS session. Possibly Johnnylunchbox and Sue or Doz or Griffmeister, or...

Less than two weeks from today if anyone is looking to get together earlier than July (though I certainly plan on making the July gathering too). I figure to be there at noon as I'll be on my way home from the Lake George Americade.

Just found out that O's Eatery, that diner on the northern end of the Taconic Parkway, burned down to the ground this past December. That certainly alters my route heading up to Lake George this weekend. Fortunately, it seems the owners have another diner not far from that one, and there is a Stewarts with gas pumps right near it, too. I might even meet Johnny Lunchbox there on Sunday on the way up.
