ROMEOS

We've not been here for a long time, but Tad stopped in recently and said we need to get it on the list again. They open at 6 a.m. and serve breakfast all day. Lunch starts "around 10:30 or 11:00...soon as its ready". Now, here's the rub. Tad said to put it on the list but could not rememb...

The Nu-Grille in Chanute opens at 10:30 and begins serving lunch then. Meatloaf with green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy and hot roll is the Friday special. Did not get the pricing but its usually reasonable. Also, they serve breakfast all day. So, let's make it a brunch ride starting at 10:30. N...

We've not been to the Big Chief cafe in Oswego since November of 2013 so thought I'd try it again. The original report was rather short, talking more about the weather than the food, service, etc. They are open from 8:30 until 2:00 and serve breakfast all day. If the daily special isn't ready early...

Thanks for the post, Randy. Nice to see decent weather on a Friday and a good turnout. We'll plan for more as we go forward. I talked with Judy yesterday and she says she will be bringing loyal home tomorrow (20th). I'll see them over the weekend and make another report next week.

The weather forecast for Ft. Scott and around is mostly sunny and 88 this Friday! Looks a little iffier north of Ft. Scott. We've not been to this place for some time and they do have really good food (or did have last time I was there). They don't open for breakfast so a lunch ride it will be. Duff...

Just talked with Duffy! I should have known that would happen right after I made the post! He sounds good. Still can't laugh..it hurts...but anxious to get closer to home. Whether you said a prayer, just had good thoughts or even made a toast to his recovery...thank you. After watching him roll down...

Here's the score...Rain 4, Lyle 1 Since Doyle favored me with this position, we have had five rides. Of those, it has rained on four and two of them were so rained out that only three attended one and only one came last week to Parker. Ask Tad for the photos he has of the crowd. I'm beginning to fee...

A late report, and not much of one. But we did want to acknowledge there were some in attendance. The weatherman was right and it rained the entire trip. But, Tad from Independence and Lyle and Marilyn from Ft. Scott braved the elements (in their autos and pickup). I do believe Swanee is right when ...

Loyal Duffy Update...Judy says he is now able to talk a little even with the "trach" in. They hope to remove it soon. He is gaining strength and they are anxious to see if he remembers how to swallow once everything is out of his throat. He is getting more alert each day and needing some l...

Time for breakfast rides! This is a new place for us recommended by some at the LaCygne ride a few weeks ago. I stopped in and found friendly people, plenty of space and good reports about the food. They open at 5:30 a.m. but I told them we'd call the ride for 9:00 a.m. They stop serving breakfast a...

Weatherman says 60% - 80% of rain all day tomorrow. I'll be there but probably on four wheels. I'm beginning to get jealous of the other area's good weather in recent days! On another matter, please remember that 54 Hwy is closed due to bridge construction one (1) mile East of Yates Center. There is...

We visited this place in May of 2014 (in case you want to look at that review) and all seemed to enjoy it. Of course, the specialty is the Prairie Nuts (Mountain Oysters to some). But, Swanee says they served some of the best burgers he's had...and he's tried a lot of them! The weather looks pretty ...

Before I forget...Loyal Duffy has been moved to a specialty hospital which deals with respiratory issues. He is now off the ventilator but still has a tracheotomy installed. He is awake and can communicate with yes or no movements of his head. Can't yet speak due to the tracheotomy thing. Judy says ...

The Family Café on the way into LaCygne has always welcomed and taken good care of us. No matter the number, they'll get the job done. Breakfast stops at 10:30. Forecast calls for 30% chance of rain, but last thing I saw showing potential rain for Friday projected that area to be pretty dry until mi...

Its been nearly a year since we went to the Greenery Restaurant in Iola. If memory serves me, the food was good and the only downside was those who ordered off the menu had a bit of a wait for their orders to arrive. Still, a good location. Unfortunately, I'll not be able to be there this week. Mayb...

Grandpa Jack used to say "Let's jump the border" and take us to Cooky's Café in Golden City, MO. As near as I can tell we've not been there since October of 2013 so I think it is about time to go once again. They open at 6:30 a.m. and serve breakfast until 10:00 a.m. They are noted for the...

What a great day for a ride...NOT! 11 degrees at 9:45 a.m. Duffy, Lyle, and Tad and Janet (from Independence, KS) all braved the cold to arrive at Kincaid at the appointed hour. There were no bikes to take pictures of and all of us have had our mugs posted enough of late so no pictures this trip. H...

Had a great turn out for MeeMaw's at Pleasanton yesterday. I forgot to take any photos..maybe some who did might be willing to prove to Marilyn that I was there! Next Friday the 23rd we will be riding to the Jayhawk Inn at Mound City. It is located just south of Casey's on Hwy 7 near the intersectio...

Thanks for the report, Randy. I did notice that no one offered to take a photograph of the photographer, however. We apologize to him for that oversight and say thanks for his support of our group. He has become more regular at the SEK events than most of the the SEK Romes! Wishing all a joyous and ...

Thanks for posting about the Hume ride. Not only was it a good visit, the folks there even gave us little Christmas candy presents...they do appreciate the ROMEOs! And, thanks for posting info about going to Stark next week. The forecast does look better. At least for now.
