I was in Helen, Georgia last year at a Corvair convention when the bike race came through. They closed all the roads leading to town-no one in or out for about two hours. Kinda pissed me off.

i always make it a point to eat at WaHo at least once whenever i go to visit the fam. there's nothing quite like loading up on a patty melt, double hash brown scattered and covered, and then as soon as you get home, taking a poop so big you're hungry afterward. with all that grease, it just slides right out of you.

Hell, you should have shown them just how unsafe Corvairs are at any speed.
Unsafe for bicyclists, I mean.

If you want to ride 100 miles on a bicycle, you better carbo-load in advance. Waffles with syrup are an excellent source of both carbs and sugar for energy.

The Italians used to dominate the sport, before someone figured out all that pasta was the secret.

And quit dissing on the south, willya? Our economy is booming, while everyone up north livesd in a rust belt; we must be doing something right. . . . .

 
FrancoFile 2007-03-11 09:21:53 PM  
Psst, olddinosaur, sugar is a carb. Methinks you meant complex carbs...

I have the privilege of living in Norcross GA aka Waffle House capital of the world. I can drive any direction from my house and be at a waffle house in five minutes. And since they're right by corporate headquarters, they're always clean. I have been to some pretty nasty waho's further out though. But in the end, nothing stands between me and those hashbrowns.

Damn, submitter... Megain just pwned ur ass. But it's no surprise really... Megain is intellectually superior. You know how I can tell? Because he uses clever and original insults. Retard? Whoa nelly! Consider yourself ice burned. And I like how he referred to you as a genius, but he didn't really mean it... sarcasm, I believe it's called. Really edgy stuff.

So, are you gonna roll over and take that kind of abuse or are you gonna throw down like a man? Huh? What's it gonna be? Start small... call him a name he'll be familiar with... like, douche, and work your way up from there... see how he handles it... test the waters. You don't want to strain yourself battling a superior wit... I mean, you are intellectually inferior.

Best of luck should you decide to retaliate. And next time be sure to type up your headline more carefully, otherwise everything will think you're a friggin' idiot and not just some guy who made a typo. We're not very understanding around here, ya know. We'll attack you over practically nothing because we're a bunch of cocky attention whores.

The sad part is the Tour of Georgia is missing a title sponsor for the first time since its inception, calling into question this great event. This, I suspect, has a lot to do with Landis and other professional cyclists who have engaged in doping to enhance their performance.

For those who were unaware, Landis, the Tour de France winner who was accused of doping won last year's event. Had he not tested positive for doping and had he attended this event I suspect they would have had no problem finding a title sponsor.

Tour de Georgia...the pidgin name just pisses me off. Tour de Georgie, sure. A Tour of Georgia, sure. The Tour of Georgia, ok. Tour de Georgia just screams "we're meritless attention whores." It's the kind of blatant ignorance that passes for "sports marketing" these days.

And if the French hadn't screwed up the testing, there would be no doubt either way.

They tried for years to bust Lance, to no avail. When another American wins right after that...they were all over themselves to 'prove' doping.

 
BuzzBoy 2007-03-11 10:20:43 PM  
I rode Hiram to Rockmart roundtrip,..46 miles on the Silver Comet Trail, and never saw a Waffle House the entire time. I'm glad I packed a banana and a bottle of water.

robotmonster1: And next time be sure to type up your headline more carefully, otherwise everything will think you're a friggin' idiot and not just some guy who made a typo.

so tell me - what was the 'typo'? oh, that's right, there wasn't one. some moran either omitted a word (more), or typed the word 'than' instead of 'like'. i can easily see how that's just a simple slip of the fingers (typo). un-wad your sandy panties, farkwad

 
Dear Jerk 2007-03-11 10:31:26 PM  
You can carbo load all you want, but nobody can store enough to get though a 100 mile race. You have to get some to go.

 
PrinceCole 2007-03-11 10:38:16 PM  
I never really understood the race but if it brings a few extra tourist dollars then so be it. I guess the riders inject themselves with sweet tea instead of steroids.

Tour Day Georgia started in Augusta in 2006. I wasn't that excited about it until they showed up...

I happen to work at Waffle House and I'll tell you what...you couldnt find a more entertaining job as far as the clientele is concerned. Ive had more fun there than Ive had in years while waiting to finish school.

 
expobill 2007-03-11 10:46:06 PM  
wasn't it so cold in Georgia friday morning that folks were fined $16?.00 for warming up their idle cars?
now there's a tour??

BTW
a cyclist wants to "carb" out the nite before.

 
Radworld4 2007-03-11 10:46:58 PM  
Theres a far cry from loading on pasta versus a waffle after about 10 minutes in there its a rock and you feel it. Georgians brace your self for vomit filled roads.

 
FarkinFarker 2007-03-11 10:50:19 PM  
Do you mean "better than breakfast..." or "like breakfast..."?

I went to Altanta once and am getting a kick... (blah blah)

Yeah, Waffles houses everywhere. Damn, y'all must really like'm waffles! Also loads of gas stations that referenced racetracks or going souper fast. Very nice people though. Just an odd, odd place.

/ and the maid said 'Joo want de sehrveeese?'
// was too scart to get the service
////Would go again! +10

 
dwalder 2007-03-11 11:24:21 PM  
Damn - a good friend's going down to Atlanta this week, loves cycling and all, but he's a "vegan" and shall never understand the gentleman's pleasure of the Waffle House, until he mends his anhedonic ways. Why, the only thing that would improve those places is to dim the lights after 8pm, serve large snifters of good brandy and pass out cigars...

On the matter of my friend - I shall eat waffles and pray for him every day.

Being Canadian, I will use real Maple Syrup, of course. Not like that cheap shiat you all call syrup.

Waffle house, at 4 AM, after a drunken binge rulz.

Going to the tour de Georgia, if it happens that is. I'll be one of the drunk bastard at the top of Brasstown Bald.
