I would like to thank Swanee for doing a great job in my absence. It looked like everyone had a great time and we had a good turnout for this time of year. Also a big thanks to Linda for photos and Bill for posting the ride reports. It is sure fun to keep up with the rides when you are unable to attend and the pictures and ride reports really give you a good feel for how the day went. Thanks again to all of you.

Now for next week: the weather report for both Tuesday and Wednesday of next week looks FABULOUS! Hard to believe right now, but the NWS is predicting for both days SUNNY with highs of 71!!! So let's stretch our legs a bit and go a direction we haven't been in awhile to:

The Cattlemens' Grille
106 West 2nd Street
Onaga, KS
785.889.0170

There are some great roads for riding up in this area so it should be a great location and day for a ride. She says the special on Wednesday will be a chicken fried steak with the "fixins" for $6.99 or you can order off of the menu. They are also open for breakfast if'n u're interested! (oops, guess I spent too much time in West Virginia last week).

PS BTW: They've recently started a "one lane road" (resurfacing) on 24 between Silver Lake & Rossville that can be a LONG wait if you catch it at the wrong time. Coming from the east might want to go up 75 to 16 at Holton or else take I-70 to exit 346 and go through Willard to Rossville. Maple Hill also works if you don't enjoy the steel grate bridge at Willard--it's fun

Hey Ya'll. I just talked to Sharon. She is still going thru lots of paper work. Doing okay. She sends her HELLO TO THE ROMEOS.
Larry, she wants to get your book back to you. Wanted me to tell you she still has it. So, Bill and I are going to stop by and pick it up Wednesday morning to bring to you.

If you weren't able to ride your motorcycle somewhere today, I hope you get well soon, because with the weather today if you didn't ride, you had to be ill! I told the owner of the Cattlemens' Grill to plan for around 25 today and 24 showed up so I ate enough at the buffet for 2!It was good to get back in the saddle after being gone for a couple of weeks and it was great to see everyone that showed up today.[attachment=18]DSCN4259.JPG[/attachment][attachment=17]DSCN4260.JPG[/attachment][attachment=16]DSCN4261.JPG[/attachment][attachment=15]DSCN4262.JPG[/attachment][attachment=14]DSCN4263.JPG[/attachment][attachment=13]DSCN4264.JPG[/attachment][attachment=12]DSCN4265.JPG[/attachment][attachment=11]DSCN4266.JPG[/attachment][attachment=10]DSCN4267.JPG[/attachment][attachment=9]DSCN4268.JPG[/attachment][attachment=8]DSCN4269.JPG[/attachment][attachment=7]DSCN4270.JPG[/attachment][attachment=6]DSCN4271.JPG[/attachment][attachment=4]DSCN4274.JPG[/attachment][attachment=3]DSCN4275.JPG[/attachment][attachment=2]DSCN4276.JPG[/attachment][attachment=1]DSCN4277.JPG[/attachment]

I didn't learn until today that not everyone made it back safely from the Hub a couple of weeks ago. Roger Meyer and Hoser were involved in a motorcycle accident as they entered the on-ramp to I-49 in Joplin. I spoke with Roger today and he said that he laid his Harley down, and although still running, is going to require some repair. He suffered only scrapes on his left side, but pretty well ruined his jacket and pants. Hoser wasn't quite so lucky, he got a free ride to the hospital and is recovering from scrapes and a couple of broken ribs, and his beloved Valkyrie is pretty much down for the count after a serious encounter with a highway road sign after rolling down the road for quite a ways without Hoser on it. Sounds like he's looking for another bike and hopes to be riding again in a few months. We are thankful that they are both going to be ok and back with us in the near future.

Sorry for the late post, but the Royals occupied my attention for most of the afternoon and early evening. I'm still having a hard time getting my head around the fact that the Kansas City Royals are going to the World Series!! GO ROYALS!!
