Romeo Riders - "Retired Old Motorcyclists Eating Out"

A place to discuss where to ride our motorcycles.

One thing that holds true with most motorcyclists is that they go somewhere to be able to ride more than riding to get somewhere.  It’s the enjoyment of the ride, being in the open while landscape unfurls in front of us.  To this end a few years back a group started meeting at little restaurants in small towns across Kansas.  We gave ourselves a name, "The Romeos", Retired Old Motorcyclists Eating Out, and gathered a few more riders into the flock.

Unlike most clubs we have no president, no dues, or really organization of any kind.  Also we do not meet up and ride down the road in large groups, we each make our own way and meet at our destination.  We are as eclectic as the bikes we ride which range from 200cc motor scooters to large touring bikes and trikes, from antique to futuristic.  The common bond is we all love motorcycles and we all like to eat.

We do things rather simply -- an email put out over the weekend for a town and restaurant, then we meet there on Wednesday for lunch.  Small towns are chosen because they are off the interstates, usually something of interest nearby, and more often than not good home cooking.  If you are traveling through Littletown, USA, and see a bunch of shiny steel steeds in front of the local diner, stop in and say hi, we love to talk about our rides.


If you have a group of friends who like to ride regularly and generally fit our definition of Romeos write to me and I will give you your own forum to coordinate your rides. Anywhere in the US - for free.  Send me an email at "admin [at] romeoriders.com" and let me know.
