Post by Burgere »

Hello everyone. A few of our riders have not yet been to Gaston’s Resort. A shorter ride for some but still a nice ride. I will get there by around 8:30am to check in and make sure they have a good table for us by the big windows.

Chef Tim will be preparing our breakfast on Thursday and will come out to greet us. The buffet is real nice, but they will also make you wonderful stuff made to order.

Look forward to seeing everyone at Gaston’s. Ed ..

Hey gang. Just a reminder that the bull shoals dam is closed on Thursday the 24th. Go ahead and come through Lake View on 178 instead of going through flippin and bull shoals. They are performing maintenance on the bridge. Hope to see a few of you at Gaston’s. Ed …

Nice turnout at Gaston’s today. We had 14 for breakfast this morning. Had a few new riders that I had not met before. It was nice meeting them. I will attach pictures with their names.

Our server Hunter also did pretty well today for being brand new at Gaston’s Restaurant. Chef Tim also came out to say hello. The buffet was really good.

Thanks for making the trip in the warm temps. I look forward to seeing everyone next week. Let’s shoot for an early ride Tuesday morning the 29th. More to come on that soon.

John, Mike and Ed were first on the scene today. John watched the bikes while Mike and Ed took a quick before-breakfast dip in the frigid white river. We told John to watch all three bikes .. but he just stared at his beautiful red Moto Guzzi. We are still looking for Ed and Mike.

Mike is pumped-up to try the Gaston’s buffet. His first time at Gaston’s.

Great to see Jim !! My wife and I loved his wife’s banana bread. Just a quick thank you card from my wife to his wife Cathy.  Jim said I could have one more loaf if I can show him that I can lose 30-40 pounds. Just teasing .. I do need to shave off a few pounds.

Mike is proud of his new top box. He has the coolest accessories on that TW 200. John likes to bless all our new bike accessories. He said a short prayer blessing the new box.

So glad Mike showed up again. I told him he was welcome to stay for breakfast if he would just get in a good mood.

Dave and Mike having a lite moment. I told Mike he should see my eye doctor. He seems to always have something in his left eye when I approach him. Love that guy !!

Ok Bill  .. I counted at least three trips to the trough for you. I’m just tired of having to get up from my chair so often to let you by.

I was enjoying our breakfast and fellowship until our server Hunter ruined the moment for me. I thought just maybe .. Jim, Mike or Leo might intercept the check and treat me. Guess they all had alligator arms today.

Hey Ed--I forgot to take a photo of the Cushman and Mustang scooters hanging from the ceiling along with the bicycles. Wonder if they have a guard dog at night? :?

Yeah those pics would have been pretty cool. I found two pics … not the best. We could also meet down there about 3am .. see if any restaurant doors were left ajarred. I could fly the club 172 down. Be a harrowing night landing. 😳
