Happy New Year Yall!
Heres hoping youve had your fill of family and indoor activities; its time for our first MOAL 2nd Saturday Ride-2-Eat of 2024.
I had planned to visit Beans and Greens in Ballplay, But theyve decided to close for several weeks in January. We discovered this situation by pre-riding my planned route from Huntsville last Weds. Well use that route in a future month when all the pieces better connect and the weather improves.
Instead, the 13Jan24 R2E will rendezvous at/about 11:00 at the Harp and Clover gourmet Irish Pub; 124 Court Street, Gadsden, AL. Its near to the Back Forty Brewing Co. Court Street is one-way going north towards Locust St. The Building is a large 3-story brick former office structure. It seems to have earned a reputation for good chow!

My Garmin waypoint:= N34° 00.825′ W86° 00.186 >>
We plan to depart HSV from the Blue Plate Cafe on Governors Drive and make a stop at the Murphys gas station on south Memorial Parkway for un-Ethanol High-Test – departing there NLT 9:00 to arrive at The Clover ~1100.
This being January, it’s gonna be chilly {mid-40s for the high}. You, however, may choose to arrive in a heated 4-wheeled conveyance. Hope to see one or more folks in January or later in the new year…
Ciao, Phil & Karen
Here’s the facade and street layout for the January gathering spot…
