ROMEOS

Option A this week is a new restaurant for the South KC ROMEOs, Ginger Sue's in Olathe. The North KC ROMEOs went to Ginger Sue's in Liberty a couple of weeks ago and I saw they had an Olathe location. Breakfast or lunch. I told them we would schedule for 11:00 but some of us might show up earlier f...

We had 25 +/- ROMEOs and nearly as many bikes in Appleton City today. Our day started off at Zink Motors with a tour conducted by Jeff or Stephen Cross. We were enlightened on the intricacies of operating the Model T, learned that auto owners only used their cars to go out of town and kept them in ...

Option A this week is a two-stop lunch ride to Appleton City, Mo. Lunch will be 11:00 at the Rustic Duck, a restaurant, art gallery, and country getaway. The restaurant is normally closed on Tuesday, but Jamie will open just for us. She said the doors will be open earlier than 11:00 so we can enjoy...

There were 8 ROMEOs at Snead's this morning. 2 riders, both were a little damp. Food and service were great as usual. We also had a great time visiting and learned that spoonbills and koi do not tolerate cholorine. It was a very enjoyable morning. Ride home was a little windy. Apologies to Jim--did...

Option A this week is a long time ROMEO favorite, Snead's BBQ in Belton, MO. We were last there in December and it's time to return. Weather looks good, maybe a little windy. I told them we will be there when they open the doors at 11:00. It's good to be back and I hope to see you all there. Snead'...

Pam reports that we had 19 well behaved ROMEOs and 17 bikes at Reynolds Cafe today. Thanks Pam for the report and pictures. I will be back with you next Tuesday.

Option A this week is Reynolds Cafe in Garden City. I told them we'd be there around 10:30. The weather is supposed to be a little warmer with a slight chance of rain. I am taking the day off and Pam is covering for me. I hope you can make it. Reynolds Cafe 107 old hwy 7 Garden City, MO 64747 (816)...

We had 12 ROMEOs at Big Creek this morning. It was a chilly and damp morning and we all opted for 4 wheels. Kenny and I arrived three minutes early and were assigned to the tardy table. Food and service were good and we had a great time visiting. As we were lined up at the register, I noticed a cou...

Option A this week is a ROMEO favorite, Big Creek Cafe in Pleasant Hill, MO. We haven't been here since August. They will be expecting us around 10. I'm looking at a weather forecast that includes a 30% chance of rain, early. I guess that would be an April shower. 2, 3, or 4 wheels I hope to see yo...

We had 20 ROMEO's at Roscoe's for lunch. With the cold weather and some snow flurries, I decided to leave the bike parked and so did everyone else. I was a little worried about order and pickup one at time at a counter but it worked pretty smooth and fairly fast. The young lady calling out the orde...

We had 15 ROMEOs and 6 bikes at Harold's for lunch on the first day of spring. The day started off pretty chilly but it warmed up for the ride home. As usual the food and service were great. Our waitress was on maternity leave so her mom called her in to help out! Now that's a perfect example of a ...

I kinda fell down on the job today. I get to Pecan Delight late (only two minutes early) and had some trouble finding a place to park. I visited with a couple of other late arrivals then took pictures of all the bikes outside. The place was full when I entered and I walked around saying hi to peopl...

By my count we had 25 ROMEOS and 19 bikes at El Potro in Louisburg for lunch on a chilly morning. My count is pretty close but I may have missed someone. The food was great as was the service. We pretty well filled up the dining room and most of us sat at tables for 2 or 4 but it looked like everyo...

I was late for lunch at Amsterdam Cafe this morning and Loud tells me my excuses are unacceptable so I won't burden you with them. However, the consequences are that I didn't get a count of how many ROMEOs or bikes were there. Some had left before I got there but we probably totaled 30 or so. As us...

I responded via email directly to Dave addressing his specific questions but I would like to address the basic ROMEO philosophy for newcomers. This quote for Jerry (our webmaster) from the Nov 2008 post announcing the KC ROMEOs sums it up nicely: " No rules, no organization, no dues - we will j...

Option A this week is Amsterdam Cafe, one of our favorite ROMEO spots. I don't really believe it, but the current forecast is for a high of 78 on Tuesday! I have scheduled for lunch at 11:00 but of course Amsterdam will serve you whenever you arrive. It will be great to get back here. We haven't be...

We had 28 at POG Brewing Company in Cleveland for lunch today. Our first time here and everyone agreed that it shouldn't be our last. They normally don't serve coffee but at our request they made a pot and kept our cups full. We spent about two hours here today and felt very relaxed and enjoyed our...

Option A this week is a new place for us, the POB Brewing Company in Cleveland, MO. It comes highly recommended as a good place for casual dining. The owner said the doors open at 11:00 but it would be best if we showed up around 11:30--so let's say 11:30 this time. The weather forecast says it wil...

We had a great day to today at Big Biscuit. I especially want to thank Lee for suggesting the joint get together, setting it up, and the after ride post. I also especially want to thank Rosetta for the pictures and adding all the names. Because of both of them, I basically did nothing this morning ...

[*] This week we are going to do a combined ride to Big Biscuit in Independence, MO. In 2023 we had combined rides on Valentine's Day, 4th of July, and a Christmas dinner. While we all enjoy the smaller North or South weekly get together, it seems that we also enjoy getting together with all the ROM...
