Title: Post-trackday get together?
Post by: bryant8 on September 30, 2008, 08:26:46 AM
Well w/ trackday looming ahead we should probably start thinking of a place to go afterwards for food and beverage.

I was thinking we could do Uncle Julio's.  But we'll need to have plenty of parking for trailers.  Any ideas you westies?

Any ideas on a place to grab some grub and maybe an adult beverage post trackday fun?

Uncle J's is a great place, but a major problem will be how packed it gets on a Saturday.... I think that will be a challenge for most places, though.

The track closes at 5 anyway so we should be able to get somwhere before the dinner crowd starts out

Last session ends at 5, but it's been my experience that by the time I change, load up, collapse into a chair & have a beer or 2, it's 6:30ish before I'm pulling away ;D

There's a great Mexican place on I-20, LARGE parking lot, we went there after the Houston guys did a track day at Cresson. I'll see if I can find the name...

There's a "Rio Mambo" near there. Does that ring a bell?

Well, the only I don't like about Julio's IS the parking. Of  which there is no bike-freindly place. Now, what comes to mind is maybe Wet Willies on the east freeway btw Oakland and Brentwood Stair Rd. on the north side of the freeway. You can see it from the road. It's got plenty of parking for trailers and bikes. They also want a bike night on Thursday's. They give those who ride in beer for $2 all night. Then there's New Orleans Nights...er...Rick's or whatever it's called now on the way west end of FW.

Then there's Boomer Jacks on W. 7th in the Montgomery Wards Condo building that has a super happy hour along being the "official" Longhorn watching party bar and grill in FW. Lot's of bikes park right in front everyday. Mostly sbk's.

Post by: bryant8 on October 08, 2008, 02:17:30 PM
We've been to that BoomerJacks.  It's a grea locale [thumbsup]  I didn't know that the was a UT watch party location.  I go to the Tipperary Inn for the Texas Exes watch parties.  Free Miller Lites and whiskey every now and again there :)

I think for the post track day we were thinking of Rio Mambo's since it has a huge parking lot and is off the interstate for easy access.
