    If your serious about organizing this please start a new thread and don't hijack this one.

    Does anyone else have a suggestion on a place in North Eastern Mass or SNH?

    We did the first non bike night in dracut and 20 regulars showed and I think we had 25 in manchester with by my guess an avg drive of 20 min maybe. Why would we all drive an hour and a half to RI?

    Bullshit. There's NO part of RI you can reasonably get to in an hour from the NH line. Did I just say 'bullshit'???

    You said it right there Sam. We're grateful to have you setting these up but to those that live too far away to attend, follow his lead and plan one for your local circle of riders instead of complaining about the distance to attend Sam's. It's an open invitation, but he's not going to drag 25 of us 2 states away to meet up with a few. If there are more than a few, then that's enough to start another Dinner out with NESR in another area.

    Waxy O'Connors in Lexington, MA has a maximum 4-way split of a table bill (or they did summer of 2011). Foolish policies like this are reason enough for me to dine elsewhere.

    Same here, except Lin Garden is also a hike. And by hike, I mean long drive Even Manch (local) is an hour. But for someone who drives an hour to work, it isn't that bad.

    Nashua- Harrisville, RI= 75.8mi 1:36

    I was just throwing out an idea that noone liked. Those times are at speed limit and at 70 its close enough to an about an hour. Either way we should just do it the same day and give everyone the choice of which to go to. I didnt realize that suggesting unity could be such a bad idea that everyone hated.

    Holding a consistent 70 MPH from Manchester, NH (or even Nashua) to points south between 5-7 PM on a week night is a pipe dream. The speed limit is not the problem.

    The requirements are:
    can seat approximately 25 people (that is what we had last time)
    be some what centrally located
    affordable

    it doesn't have to be Chinese but so far that has been the most successful since they usually have a large enough variety of dishes to satisfy everyone.

    Please post your suggestions here.

    After Christmas, I will put up a poll to see which is most popular and then call them to make sure they can take care of us.
