Picture: Lindsborg, KS, little Sweden, USA
Lindsborg has long been trying to establish itself as a Sunday Biker Breakfast destination and today they had a decent turnout. I counted around 50 bikes at one time. Richard, of ROMEO fame, has been instrumental in this effort and it looks like his efforts are starting to pay off.
I probably should have gotten there earlier because by the time I ordered breakfast the kitchen at The Cookery must have overloaded as it took nearly an hour to get my Swedish pancakes. Ordinarily it would be worth the wait but in this case they were luke warm. Course had I arrived early I would have missed seeing Richard and Joyce who drove by to check the turnout on their way to church.
As I was on the REB I got the usual chances to talk to folks and that is good for a shy guy like me. The only bike I saw worth noting was a Triumph Rocket III and it was good to see a handful of sportbikes. Everything else was middle aged, leather clad posers on their straight pipe Harley's and a few Yasuhonki V-twins. One entertaining event was three of said posers trying to make a show of their departure. All three took off heading South from the East side of the street, WFO, hanging on for dear life until they had to slam on the brakes for the stop sign just half a block away. I was impressed as I humbly thumped after them at subdued decibels.
