11/9/05 ROMEOs in Alma, KS

Picture:  I pulled off the road and up a hill into a pasture to get this Kansas vista.


The ROMEOs (Retired Old Motorcyclists Eating Out) met in Alma, KS for lunch today.  The Corner Stone Cafe is a cool little place in the back room of a grocery store in an old stone building.  The buffet was all home made and there must have been ten desserts, $6.50 all you can eat.


  It was almost too cold at 44 degrees but the last 17 miles made it worth while.  That was a little twisty two lane between Alta Vista and Alma through the rolling Flint Hills.  Great ride especially when you are used to the long straight roads that made up the first 80 miles of the trip.  Going back down that same road on the way home was even more fun with the wind at my back and the temperature now in the low 50's.

  I don't know how many more of these Wednesday lunch rides I will be able to make, today was about the coldest I care to ride.
