30A Bike Crawl

[BarCrawl]

My wife and I are going to be at 30A this weekend (1/25 -1/27). We are bringing the bikes and were planning on taking a ride down 30A Saturday. The plan is to make several stops for a cold beer along the way while taking in the scenes. What are some recomendations for good beer stops along the way if we start in Rosemary and head east to Grayton?

Any place that sells beer.:floor:

The problem will be coming back!!!:rofl::funn:

Seriously, watch the traffic. It can get to be pretty tight, and those big mamma SUV's will mash you flat.

BTW, Welcome to SoWall:welcome::welcome::welcome:

Be careful, Florida is one of those pesky states with a BUI law.

[BarCrawl]

Thanks for the info. We're staying in Grayton, so we'll probablly ride straight out to Rosemary and stop at a few establishments on the way back in. Hurricanes sounds like the place we need to end up at:D

I must admit, you've got me wishing for spring... Whenever I'm in the area, I bring my road bike and travel 30-A. Always a blast! (With the one-time exception where some ignorant driver rolled down the window and told me sidewalks were for bikes...) In your case, since you're drinking, I can only assume you'll be on the sidewalk...

Happy trails!

What a grayt idea, BarCrawl! If it wasn't my daughter's birthday weekend, I'd ask for an invitation to join you.;-)

BUI is rough. On Labor Day weekend I was BUI and messed up my knee really badly. My husband laughed his a$$ off. It was actually very funny. I looked so retarded on that bike. I finally just walked it home.:lol:

This reminds me of what we called "doing Magazine Street" when at Tulane. We'd try to have one beer at every bar on Magazine starting at Audubon Park and attempt to get to Canal Street. Never made it past Jackson Avenue. Hey, Skunky, did y'all ever do that? OOPS! I guess in your profession you can't admit to that.:rolling:In my profession I shouldn't, but then I had just turned 21 when I graduated from Tulane (BTW the drinking age then was 18). So if Obama can admit to making dumb mistakes as a kid, so can I.:floor:

Thanks for the detailed listing of great places to stop. We will just be riding the "cruiser bikes" on the sidewalk so even if we hit all eleven that Sunsetbaby listed, we should make it back to Grayton alright. I'm turning 40 in March and told the wife i wanted to do a Bike/Bar crawl on 30A before I turned 40. So here we come. We did a few crawls back in the day on the Strip in Tuscaloosa. I guess once I turn 40, I'll have to grow up. Should be fun:drink2:

It will take a very, very long time to end up in Grayton by traveling east from Rosemary. :biggrin:

You are so right.:floor:

It reminds me of leaving a Florida-Georgia game. We were leaving the stadium after the game and asked a police officer for directions to a restaurant in Jacksonville. The officer said, "You can't get there from here." Excuse me, but you can get anywhere from anywhere, but for practical reasons it's just a matter of what the shortest path is.

I never thought I would sound like an old hen, but you can still get a BUI on the bike path. Where is shallowsfuzz when you need him?
