Missouri Tailgate Anyone?

[Memento]

It looks like they are going to Hot Shots in Belleville (IL). Is everyone okay with that or do you want to keep it at the location in Chesterfield?

Just pulled it up on the map and it looks pretty close to STL. So I'm fine with it doesn't affect my drive that much.

Anyone have a prob with Belleville?

How close to STL are we talking?

 

[Merlin]

Right next to it. Quick drive down 64 looks like. Maybe 5 to 10 mins?

 

[RamsCardsJazz]

Belleville is about 10 mins from STL. It is right next to East St Louis

 

[Memento]

Okay. I live in Hazelwood, so I guess I could make it to Belleville.

 

[RamsCardsJazz]

He misspoke, it is actually at the Hot Shots in Edwardsville. Are you still okay with this? It is actually closer for @Memento than Belleville, being from Hazelwood.

That works for me!

Yeah I'm good with either location. My drive is about 1.5 hours regardless. Let's give everyone some time to digest this and if nobody has an issue with it we'll go with it.

I'd love to catch a game with any of y'all. Got a decent little burger joint/sports bar here in Springfield I go to for Rams games not televised locally (most now).

Please post some pics you bunch of freaks!!!

It's always great to get to SEE our members when they get together in person.

Belleville, Edwardsville, East St. Louis, they're all like 5 minutes from each other (if you drive like I do).

But ... is it safe?

 

[Memento]

Never mind, I looked at the location. Bellville works; Edwardsville doesn't.

Dang hillbillies, you need to have that tailgate somewhere civilized like Kansas!

There actually is not a location in Belleville. Once I realized there was not is when I asked if he meant O'Fallon, which is closest to Belleville, but he said he meant Edwardsville. We can go to the place @Merlin suggested. It makes no difference to me.

Oh, okay. Chesterfield works for me.

Edwardsville is actually cool, used to stop by there for a bite to eat on longer rides. MCT trails run right through and are some of the best places for paved cycling in the area if you're looking for anything with distance (goes all the way to Staunton, IL so if you do some loops on the southern end you can easily get 60-80 miles in without worrying about traffic much).

Chesterfield is obviously cool too. It is the time of the year for mountain biking, and you know all those trails are west, so I'll likely be in that area in the morning anyway.

LOL - I do as I can, still practicing track stands and jumps

Is the terrain really so much more challenging in California?
