ROMEOS

Saddlerock Cafe is one of our favorites and we haven't been there in over a year now it looks like. Heard several mention it as a place they want to go back to so heck let's do it. The weather looks pretty good right now with 70's and maybe just some "pm" showers--they never say whether t...

A GREAT day to be a ROMEO even if it was getting a little on the hot side as people were leaving. That's a lot better than frozen pipes! Some were heading out to do more riding but I was heading home to do maintenance on the air conditioner or else I was going to be in serious trouble. We had 44 bi...

Looks like yet another day with rain at least 40% possible or considerably more depending on which forecast you look at. But even though this is Kansas I'm pretty sure we won't have sub-zero temperatures this time at Mulligan's. That's what happened in January and they had frozen pipes so it was a ...

While I was there I didn't hear about anyone in our group who was seriously affected by the tornadoes and other scary weather Tuesday evening and glad the KC bunch had time to get home before all that started. So it was great to get some beautiful riding weather the next day though it started out k...

It's been a little over a year since we went to Wetmore and that's too long. It's good food and good riding and looks like probably good weather. The only thing that could make Wetmore better is a bunch of hungry ROMEO riders showing up and parking their motorcycles all over the place. Okay some of...

Well we lucked out. The weather man's Ouija board was right this time and it turned out to be one beautiful riding day in a not-so-beautiful week as far the as weather goes. A little cool early, but by noon it was so nice that I'm pretty sure most of us were thinking about some direction other than...

We went east last week so let's go a little bit west this time. Seems like more than once the weatherman has provided us with a "frog strangler" when we've gone out to Froggy's, but right now they're predicting Wednesday might actually be one of the drier days in a somewhat rainy week. Le...

Bucky made a great choice of location since there was some rain in part of our area but just good weather and good food in good ole Tonganoxie. I think the showers were pretty much gone by noon and looking like everybody would stay dry. It was getting a little hot (for May anyway) but still darn go...

We had 14 at Ann's Diner, a few for breakfast and some for lunch, on a cloudy day that wasn't bad at all. Most of us were on 2 or 3 wheels and stayed pretty much dry aside from some mist. Hopefully those down at the Rendezvous are getting some decent riding weather too. Turns out the Teresa who own...

Since it'll be a relatively small group with some of us off at the Rendezvous, let's test out a new place that's not real big in size but promising. Ann's Diner is located on the north side of Lyndon, west side of highway, where the EZ Rock Cafe was for those who remember. The lady I spoke with is ...

A day that started out cool & cloudy but dry by noon turned into a just about perfect riding day with even some sunshine for about 25 who turned up at DJ's today. It was so nice I don't think anybody took the short route home and there was some serious pie hunting afterward in various direction...

Once again we have a chance of showers ranging from "slight" to 50/50 depending on the forecaster's tea leaves, which I guess is pretty much just what you get this time of year in NE KS. Right now looks like it might be a little less chance of getting wet out to the west of Topeka and, be...

Well we managed to stay dry again today--noboby I talked to reported more than a sprinkle on them getting to Osky in spite of the cloudy skies. Result was a really good turnout that just about filled up Fajitas which isn't a big place at all. Jose's crew did a great job getting everybody fed faster...

When we went to Fajitas in late November a big snowstorm had recently happened and they were just getting roads cleared. The result was a small ROMEO group but the consensus of those who did show up was "Good Eats!" and we should definitely give Fajitas another shot when the weather is wa...

One more time we got nice weather except for some wind which is just what happens in Kansas this time of year--at least there's no blizzard in the forecast on our end of the state! We got 35 bikes & trikes out today plus a top-down Miata which isn't a whole lot bigger so I'd say that's a pretty...

With rain chances all over the board again how 'bout another not-too-far place that many of us are familiar with and know it's worth a hop in the cage--IF it turns out wetter than you want to ride in. Four Corners does serve breakfast 'til 11:30 though the last couple of times we've been there it w...

Today we had a good mix of breakfast and lunch which was probably a good thing. Not a humongous crowd but enough we came fairly close to filling up the main room at Jae's at times--they did at least have some barstools at the front still open. I got there before 10 and there were already several wh...

Maybe it's time to go in a little different direction for a change and we haven't been to Jae's in quite awhile. They've taken the rain chances down so hopefully with a little luck we'll get good weather in the 60's that's just right for riding. In the past they've handled ROMEO crowds both large a...

Weather was "near-perfect" today...okay some wind but this is Kansas so you just enjoy the ride and pretend it's not there while you're leaning sideways on a straight road. We got 43 bikes over to Osage City, so with a couple of 2-ups that I know of we had a headcount of at least 45 and s...

We haven't been to Marilynn's in awhile and it's one of our favorites so let's go back this Wednesday. There were some "showers" the forecast but now it's looking like there won't be too many of those around and mostly to the west of most of us. Temperatures are supposed to be perfect for...
