Longford, KS Part Two

Picture: Brand new Suzuki Bergman (thanks to Pat for the pictures). There are more pictures under "Longford Part Two" in the photo albums.

After what seems like weeks of nasty weather yesterday's lunch ride to Longford was a delight. By the time Pat, Randy and I covered the easy 40 miles and pulled in the place was packed with around 40 bikes. The first thing I did was to shed some clothes as the tempature was climbing.

Lunch at the Coachlight was the usual excellent quality, price and service. This is becoming a yearly vist for the ROMEOs and is one for my favorites. The outside gazebo and patio make for a tempting place to hang around and BS long after the meal is over.

Several of us rode back to Salina together and stopped in at Salina Powersports to take a look at the new Piaggio MP3 three wheeled scooter. Joyce was all excited about it until she found out that it wouldn't stand up by it's self at a stop light unless you flip a switch or something. Don't know what she is worried about, she couldn't possibly drop it as often as her husband drops his. It is quite the marvel and according to Richard (the husband) who has taken a ride, it handles like a dream.

Ending the ride with a Frosty at Wendy's is rapidly becoming a tradition with some of the ROMEOs. A small Frosty provides 1/3 of your daily calicum requirement you know.
