Tue 4/25 Reynolds Cafe, Garden City, MO or Stella's, Richmond, MO

We've had a good run of nice weather lately but it looks like Tuesday might be damp. Grab your rain gear or a car for the...

Re: Tue 4/18 Harold's Smokehouse, Freeman, MO or Waverly Apple BBQ, Waverley, MO

I had told them we would be about 20 but 41 of us showed up at Harold's Smokehouse this morning. Harold's did a good job considering there were twice as many as expected. Al helped out with keeping our drinks full--I should have but I'm still in training. Al also got some nice pictures of all the b...

We had 25 ROMEOs this morning at the Rich Hill Cafe. I took pictures of everybody but many of the pictures were blurred so if your picture isn't here, my apologies--again!

We had 32 this morning at Santa Fe Cafe. Four years ago when we were here we had about the same number. The difference was that in 2019 we had no bikes and today we had a passel of bikes (that's too many for me to count). Food and service were great and I got a coffee refill even though I had "...

Special thanks to Wanda and Bob for putting today together.

Good thing too because I forgot that I had any responsibilities. I had great...
