ROMEOS

We're heading back to Arlington next week for breakfast at Carolyn's. We had lunch there about three months ago, but we haven't been for breakfast in a while. It's one of our traditional favorites, with excellent service and darned good food. The weather will be hot, but dry; it should be a decent d...

NOTE: WE'RE STILL DOING BREAKFAST MEETINGS DURING JULY AND AUGUST. IF YOU SHOW UP AT LUNCHTIME, YOU'RE LIKELY TO SEE US RIDING OUT OF TOWN. It's been about a year since we visited the Red Rooster Cafe in Harper. The food is pretty good, especially the breakfast. It's hard to find Eggs Benedict at a ...

REMEMBER: BREAKFAST rides for the rest of July and August! We're going back to Burden next week; the group had a great lunch there a few months ago (I missed out, due to having a knee replacement.) We had breakfast there last August, to very favorable reviews. Bob Hoch declared the biscuits and grav...

PLEASE NOTE: WE'RE SWITCHING TO BREAKFAST RIDES FOR THE NEXT TWO MONTHS. It looks like next Wednesday will be dry and hot, at least during the morning and early afternoon hours. We'll head back to the Firehouse Cafe, in Hutchinson. There's no parking lot at the cafe, but plenty of adjacent on-street...

Some of us talked about going to the Lumber Yard recently, but I found that the K42 bridge between Spivey and Zenda is closed for replacement. The detour is rather long and circuitous, so we'll wait until the road is back to normal. Instead, we're heading to another favorite out west, Jeri's in King...

Someone mentioned recently that we hadn't been to the Red Barn in a while, so it's off to Caldwell next week. They have all the standard cafe offerings, and they serve breakfast all day. We've always had good food and service there, and next Wednesday looks like a good day for a slightly longer ride...

We have a new destination next Wednesday, courtesy of Brian. He and I have been to Benny's a couple of times, and had some good burgers. Benny's also has pork tenders, Philly steak sandwiches, salads, and a lot of other items. Pretty much burger joint stuff, but a wider variety than most. There's ad...

We haven't been to Galva for a while, and a few of us have expressed a desire to return to the 56 Family Restaurant. We've been there before, and always had good food and service. They serve all the usual cafe fare, and offer breakfast all day. (I like the homemade sausage and biscuits and gravy.) G...

It looks like next Wednesday will be a great day to ride. The only thing that would make it better is some BBQ. We'll head back to Winfield, to Boss Hog's. The food and service are very good, and they appreciate our business. Boss Hog's doesn't open until 11:00, so there's no need to show up early u...

Now that we have some more temperate weather, we're heading back to a ROMEO favorite for lunch next Wednesday: Lila's, in Piedmont. They like to see us, the food is always good, and it should be a nice ride through the tail end of the Flint Hills. Lila's will have a special meal for us, as usual. It...

It looks like many of us won't be able to attend the Spring Rendezvous in Arkansas next week (my new knee isn't quite up to long distances or loading and unloading from the truck,) so I've scheduled lunch at one of my favorite places. My wife and I eat lunch at Kristy's, in Anthony, frequently. The ...

I'm going to have to cancel; the new knee isn't up to riding long distance or loading and unloading from the truck yet. My double room is available if anyone needs it. I'll see everyone at the fall Rendezvous.

One of the guys last week asked to go back to Lila's. I was planning to schedule it, but the weather looks like it may take a turn for the worse. I don't want to risk such a small place ordering extra food to accommodate us and then have a poor turnout due to weather. I'll get us back to Lila's when...

It looks like we may get by with clouds and no rain next Wednesday, so we're heading back to Carolyn's, in Arlington. It's one of our traditional favorites, with excellent service and darned good food. Wednesday is fried chicken day; pan fried is definitely the best kind. There is also a full menu o...

I was planning to run us out west to Arlington next week, but the forecast currently calls for a really high chance of rain. We'll get back to Carolyn's when the weather is a bit more amenable to riding. Staying in close will make travel by four wheels more tolerable, and it will give us a chance to...

Next week we can all get in more miles than Ron. It's been quite a while since we visited Moundridge, but the restaurant downtown is open under new management. Ron and Charlie both give it a thumbs up, so it'll be well worth the ride. El Paso Mexican Grill is located on Christian Ave., the main nort...

Not an “official” ROMEO event (whatever that is,) but a number of the guys and gals like to participate each year. This an RTE that I set up each year. It started out as a sport touring event, but we've always welcomed all types of bikes and riders. This will be the fifteenth year for the Roy's BBQ ...

Still winter, but we're inching closer to spring. I'm going to keep us in fairly close, heading to Conway Springs. When we were at the Stock Tank last June, Charlie commented that we should put it on the permanent list. I think most of us were in agreement. The only criticism I had was not being abl...

For those of you who don't check the other sub-forums, here's a link to the announcement for the Spring Rendezvous. Always a good time, you ought to go if you can. (We'll set up a local ride for the poor souls who can't make the rendezvous...) https://www.romeoriders.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&...
