Club House is CLOSED

. . Those who pass Big Looy's notice it is closed and seemingly permanently. One of the great things about Big Looy's is it provides an intimate setting that helps cement the comradery that helps make the FOGBEES unique.
. . We are now in search of a new "club house." How about POSTing some suggestions.

I don't really mind where we meet and hang out after rides, but I would like to suggest it be a place where we don't have to ride through a ton of traffic either going to or coming back from a ride. Someplace out by the Indian Lakes Center would be nice due to the future Greenway and easy access to all of our routes we ride.

RIP BL. The library seems a logical starting point with an after ride meeting elsewhere. A downside could be a tendency for folks to head on home once they are in a car.

How about Dickies Bar-B-Que on Stop30?? Near the Greenway, near Beech, not a Gallatin Road like ton of traffic altho New Shackle is a litle hairy, easy access to re-hydrating beverages AND on my side of town!! :)

The new sports bar in the Indian Lake shops has beer speacials nearly every day. Also, they have an outdoor seating area.

I like the idea of Indian Lakes area. Maybe the new Sports Bar locating there could sponsor jerseys... Just an idea.

I am in agreement with Chad...we should go talk to them sometime in the next week about meeting there.

Seems like the Sports Bar at Indian Lake is a clear preference. Sounds like you ought to test out your recommendation and report. I checked out the Pizza Place that Doug suggested. It has very limited seating capacity and being next to a church and school severely curtails its beverage selection.

Just a thought from the deaf scarecrow here . . .

Sports Bar . . .

Although if there is ever an occasion where we need to have a serious chinwag, a less noisy place would be ideal.

A hearing aid is great but it "hears" everything and thus may drown out important conversation.

Sams is a great place, just pricey. 2 beers/person and shared nachos with 3 people = $18/person including tip. La Lomas chips and salsa free, 1 Xtra large Beer that is as big as 2 Sams beers, = $4 plus tip or $5.50. Huge difference, but Sams place is nice.
