Should we have a meeting time and place or just plan on bumping into each other from time to time.

Hey Don:

How about a meet at the Starbucks :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: in the Dillons on US40 slightly west of Lawrence? Should be on the way for the Topeka area riders. Let me know the time and I'll meet all there.

Here's a plan. I don't know if it's a good one or not. How about meeting at the Starbuck's as John suggested at 1000 for a cup then dash over to the Vintage show.

Those coming from a different direction or that don't want to stop for coffee, but would still like to mosey around in a group can meet us at the show at 1100 near the entrance.

That should give us time to wander about and still make it home for the game.

Open to any other suggestions.

Don

What Klem said +1:
For those of you who are unfamiliar with this Dillons, in addition to the Starbucks there is also a buffet offered. I have never eaten there, but the food sure looks good and it is next to the Starbucks. There is a rather large room where those drinking coffee or eating food can assemble next to the buffet/Starbucks. I will highly recommend that we meet here :mrgreen: . Lastly, this Dillons is in a large mall on the south side of US40 just as you are entering West Lawrence coming from Topeka. See you at 10:00.

OR...we could all just show up at the bike show and sneak up on each other! We'll all know if you want to be found if you wear your day-glo ROMEO T-shirt! ;)

Sure was good to see all the Romeos at the bike show. They had a much better turnout than I expected. Nice bunch of old scoots to look at also. Spring is just around the corner, time to check your tires and make sure they are good to start the season with. Get your oil changed and chain oiled and be ready to ride. Bucky says it will be 80 degrees in 11 days. No not in Texas, but in Kansas. I think maybe he is just going to set his thermostat up a notch but none the less spring is about to show its colors. You have to do it to have memories, let's make this the best summer yet.
