North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 4/8/21

Well, the weather is starting to come around. Although Wednesday isn't forecast to be the warmest day of the week we should have a good day if the forecast holds. I found this place in the archives and we haven't been here since August of 18. So I thought it's about time to pay them another visit. R...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 3/30/21

I ran across this one WWAAAYYY back in the archives. Actually I found it on a slip someone gave me for a prospective ride. As it turns out we were last here back in August of 2012. I called expecting to get the screeching tone and the computer telling me to get lost, but they actually answered the p...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 3/19/21

We haven't been here for about a year, and the last time I didn't make it at all. My bike went on strike for the day. :x Looking at the weather Friday looks like the best. Wednesday is supposed to be cold and rainy and Thursday doesn't too much warmer. Well the forecast for Friday seems to have dete...

North Central Kansas Weekly Ride 3/10/21

It took a little searching and between the places that aren't open on Monday and the places that are closed permanently I was able to find this place that we haven't visited for a LONG time. There is a little hitch in the giddy up though. Due to the Kung Flu they're limited to seating for 25. So we ...

It looks like the season is starting to break. I say that with caution because the weatherman may be reading this. The forecast is for a high of 63* on Wednesday and 0% chance of precipitation. Hopefully that will hold. We haven't been here for about a year and it's always a good time. They're looki...

Pop Up Saturday ride 2/27/21

John Crandall just called me to tell me about a ride he and some others are taking to the China Star in Hutchinson tomorrow. The weather is forecast to be great for February and the bug is biting some of us pretty hard. I'm hoping to go along but I may have another commitment. They plan on leaving f...

I just got a call from Steve Errebo inquiring about a ride this week. I was surprised since I thought I had posted it. As it turned out I was rather rushed when I posted it and I forgot to hit "SUBMIT". At any rate, here it is. It looks like our time in our frozen purgatory is coming to an...

It looks like Old Man Winter has his fist tightly clenched around our throats. Looking at the thermometer on the wall and it says -8* and the little snow flake icon is flashing. I guess that's supposed to let me know that it's really cold outside. I'd have NEVER figured that out without that little ...

We're in the deep freeze. I've been thinking of moving my food outside and turning off my freezer to save on the electric bill. In any case, we won't be riding this week. I called KSU but they aren't allowing the general public in as long as the Kung Flu is going around. So I guess I'm going to fire...

Hey Kai:
We're missing you too. Hope you're on the mend and can get back out again soon. We're thinking of you and hoping for your speedy recovery.

If the weatherman doesn't do a bait and switch on us we should have a good day for a ride. Not too much sunshine, but flirting with 60*. Kurt Keeler pointed me to this place after I called them and got no answer. Apparently they reopened the day after I called. At any rate we're scheduled for Wednes...

It looks like winter is back for another week or so. This week is putting us back in the deep freeze. So we'll be sitting this one out. :cry: Next week is looking a little better. Let's wait and see how it shakes out.
I can't go riding.  BUMMER!!

OK. It looks like old man winter is taking a nap in this neck of the woods. Wednesday is looking good for a ride. I had plans for Tescott but it looks like they're no longer around. I found this place in Lindsborg. I clicked on the Swedish Crown web page on the posting from our last visit and it too...

The weather is looking pretty good for Wednesday and I have us tentatively set up for a ride to Longford. They have been doing only curbside service due to their county mask mandate. The mandate may be lifted by Tuesday but we won't know til then. However they said they will open up for inside dinin...

Looking at the weather Tuesday looks like we can squeeze a ride in before we go too shack wacky. I'm getting to the point of desperation to get out of the house and go somewhere beside the grocery store (which seems like an extension of my kitchen at this point). We were here last year just about th...

Sad News RIP Bud

Bud Palen.png I just got word that Bud Palen passed away. I found his announcement on the Salina Journal (Salina.com) web site after Terry Powell called me and informed me of Bud's passing. He passed away on Wednesday at his home surrounded by his loved ones. Bud was a good, kind, and generous man,...
