Freakin' Love bug season!!! Gotta find a drive thru car wash to get the layer of bugs off my faceshield. I'm blaming this one on YOU, Rob.
Ride To Eat - Solomon's Castle May 14th

Help Support Yamaha FJR Motorcycle Forum:
I just got home; did FL70 to I-95 and blasted home. 391.5 miles on the day per Ms Garmin.
I left Mr.& Mrs 101st and Vic in Okeechobee. It was great seeing everyone and catchin' up just a bit. I would have never gone to Solomon Castle on my own, thanks for the push, that was a pretty good spot. They did a steady business when we were there and a fair amount of bikes of all shapes in and out.
See ya later!

Uggh.
I regret to say, Sorry, I was unable to make it. Had a family emergency pop up and had to drive to Atlanta Friday and Saturday the 13th and 14th. Never saw that one coming, but it was the right thing to do. I was really looking forward to this ride and sad to have missed it. Hoping we can do this again soon?

I enjoyed the hell out of it. The food was great. 320 miles round trip for me. Was it worth it! Yes! :yes:
I think Jim has a place picked out for the next one !I enjoyed the hell out of it. The food was great. 320 miles round trip for me. Was it worth it! Yes!

Jealous, just read about today!
On the next RTE, when @ Solomon's Castle I was thinking of High Tides Flagler Beach:
https://www.snackjacks.com/
This place has great fish tacos and other menu items and I've been there a number of times. Another beach spot, but often really busy, is Breakers on New Smyrna Beach:
https://breakersnsb.com/
I go to Breakers fairly often as it's pretty close to beautiful Mims.
Speaking of Mims, we have a decent BBQ place, Louis Bar BQ; no website that I can find, but coordinates are: 28.6561198,-80.8423567
Immediately next door is Honeysuckle, which is a southern home style restaurant. They are pretty good, too. Both come up on Google maps, so you can read reviews and menu.
Moving South, there is Grilles @ Port Canaveral:
https://www.grillsseafood.com/
There are actually 2 of these, the second one is on the river down by Melbourne. I've been to the Port Canaveral Grilles many times over the yrs, and in fact it used to be just a little tiki bar 20+ yrs ago when I started going. Pretty good place, but really busy on the weekends. I've only been to the Melbourne location a couple of times. It's a duplicate of the Port location one, but newer and better parking. The Port IMO is still better as you can see the cruise ships going in and out, plus maybe a submarine if one is in port over @ NOTU across from Grilles.
My wife & I usually go to Fish Lips which is a short walk along the waterfront from Grilles. There are other choices, but I don't know them as well.
Thoughts? We can start a new thread. My biggest problem in June is scheduling. I'm going to West Virginia on a LD ride with Hoagy's Heroes (Check the LD rides section, I put a link), then back here for a week, then up to Montana with 101st for the FJR gathering in Red Lodge.
OK, back to Solomon's Castle:

Looks like you had a great time, had a great day out too. Sometimes these days clash but will sure get to the next rte.

All of those places looked good to me, Jim. Throw a dart to select one and we will come. I have a room at my nieces house. They all look close to Sanford. At least closer that West Palm Beach.
