A weekend meet is okay every now and then. Historically, everyone bitches for a weekend meet and then ends up being a no-show when one finally happens. However, I have to vote NO to the last location.

Its not centrally located, parking was marginal, Ive seen bathrooms that are bigger than the whole restauraunt, and the food was skimpy and bleh.

if you want a $10+ hamburger just go to Fuddruckers. File that burger place with Frenchy's - in the **** That Bin.

If we pick a weekend meet location that is not centrally located, that's totally fine by me but one that includes a reasonably nice drive would be way better. My temp gauge nearly exploded wading through all of the stop and go traffic on Dairy Assford.

Swinging Door out in Richmond? Seafood spot down South? Etc.

Really had a great time and was glad to make it and "unveil" the car after 3 months at the body shop. Still think we need to do nametags with forum handles or something equally as effective but less gaytastic... Can't ever match up faces / cars / and forum names.

well it was a great turnout. had fun saw a lot of new faces, that aside.

the eatery was atrocious, small, and overpriced. the parking was marginal at best, we got scattered all over, but that was more of dysfunction than parking availability.
I definitely like the weekend meet idea, it speed the monthly wait along quite nicely.

BUT THIS PLACE, I agree goes in the F-That Bin of despair that we will never speak of, just like the other place (you know where) S-K-EEZE-RZ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OERYl6jU1U

you should probably just fix your car before driving it to the next meet.
