North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 12/22/20

It's that time of the year again. The weather is a crap shoot. The weather prophets are calling for Tuesday to be the best with the temps just topping the 60* mark. So with the watch word being "CAUTION", I scheduled one rather close. With my luck we'll get a blizzard Monday night. :? OK. ...

Annual Christmas Lunch 12/16/20

It's that time again. Time for good will and peace on earth. Time for that fat little home invader to slide down the chimney and commit acts of reverse burglary. As a child I never understood why he came down the chimney. At our house he'd end up in the furnace. And all through my childhood I never ...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 12/9/20

We seem to be getting a reprieve from the weatherman this week. He's promising 63* and sunny on Wednesday, so I set us up with a place not too far away that we haven't been to in about a year. So get your bike dusted off and get ready to blow the cobwebs out. The morning think tank was fruitful enou...

No North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 12/2/20

Well it looks like old man winter has us in his icy grip. He's calling for a high of 42* for Wednesday and nothing better for the week. :( I'm looking into a venue for the annual Christmas gathering. Kansas Buffet is history so I'll make some calls and see what else is available. Sad Bulldog 1.jpg

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 11/25/20

The weatherman has been cutting us some slack lately. It looks like Wednesday is going to be the best day next week with lots of sunshine and a high of 58*. Looking through the archives this place looked reasonably within reach on a cool day. OK! The weatherman has pulled another bait and switch on ...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 11/18/20

It looks like the weatherman is giving us a break next week. The forecast high is in the low 70s. It's been just a year since our last visit to this place and I'm looking forward to some pizza that I don't have to make. It was a confusing a confusing meeting today. I was strategically seated between...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 11/11/20

It looks like Wednesday's weather is going to be reasonable for a moderate ride. I was digging through the archives looking for a place reasonably close and most of the places weren't open yet or closed permanently. I looked at the Dinner Bell in Belleville and saw they had closed up shop, but still...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 11/4/20

We might as well face it. Summer is over. :( The weatherman is threatening us with temperatures that are flirting with our 50* limit. As a result I'm trying to keep this week's ride a little closer to home. We haven't been here in a little better than a year and they are not too far away, so I got u...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 10/21/20

The Cung Flu had this place closed for a while but they're back open. We were there once before about a year and a half ago. Diesel Dave and I scoped it out back then. It's run by an English biker who was glad to have us pay him a visit. They will have a single item menu and I'll have more info what...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 10/14/20

This one's a real blast from the past. We haven't been here in 9 years. :o Looking back through the archives for the pictures I found most of them were lost, so I couldn't tell if I was there. But then I'm not always sure I'm here. :? Back in August of 11 I was spending most of my time in KC having ...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 10/7/20

As you know, last Saturday was Thunder On The Smokies in Marquette. Also my buddy Shorty chose that venue to get married. So in addition to the bike festivities I was there to witness the execution. While there I also stopped in at the Ranch House bar and grill and got us set up for next Wednesday. ...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 9/30/20

Searching back through the archives I found several good prospective places for our hoard to invade. Unfortunately I was continually running into a brick wall. One after another was either closed until after the Kung Flu is over, or simply didn't answer the phone, or their web page wasn't up any mor...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 9/23/20

It looks like next Wednesday is going to be another great day to ride! We'd better take advantage of it while we still can. It won't last much longer. The last time we were here was just before the Kung Flu plandemic hit. It's always been a good ride albeit not too far. They usually have the Holy Gr...

Since the weather took a dump for last week I got this one rescheduled for this coming Wednesday. The weatherman is showing us some mercy next week. :D This one is like a blast from the past. We haven't been here for three years. :shock: The name has been changed but the phone number is the same. As...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 9/11/20

OK! Here's the plan. Tomorrow looks like a washout. High of 55* and 70% chance of rain. It looks a lot like today. It looks like FRIDAY is the only day this week that worth anything, and that's iffy. So I scheduled a short ride for this week. We're going the EXIT14 in Gypsum. It's been almost a year...
