Hope, KS 11-7-2012

The Gridiron Cafe, Hope KS

  It's always fun to try a new ride and what better way than to trade with a fellow ROMEO.  That's how I came to ride Terry's new Concours to Hope today.  It's a fantastic ride, fit about right, more power that should be legal, all kinds of buttons and geezwhizses.  Wind in your face?  Just press the button to raise the windshield.  I could get used to something like this.

  I managed to make it all the way there without dumping the bike,  Terry said he enjoyed riding my Triumph Bonneville but I think he was being nice.

  The Gridiron was about full of ROMEOs when I went in which means that most of them didn't wait until 12:30 as asked.  What are you gonna do with a bunch of old farts?  The staff were hustling like crazy and everyone seemed to get served in pretty good time.

 

The food was pretty good too.  I suppose some of the crew found someplace to have ice cream but I had to get home.  Nice day for a lunch ride.

Now the lying really starts!
