With Valentines Day occurring on the 2nd Thursday this month and taking a slight priority over anything motorcycle-related, do we want to try for dinner this Thursday the 21st? The forecast I'm looking at says 50% chance of morning showers, high of 56, low of 41.
Or, do we want to try a ride-to-eat Saturday or Sunday? The forecast for Saturday is 50% chance of showers, high 60, low 37. Sunday shows 10% chance, Sunny, high 59, low 40.
Or, do we want to wait for March?

I'm up for a ride Thursday night. That 50% chance Saturday becomes 100% if I ride  Maybe Sunday is a better day for a ride. Still cool but zero percent chance of rain. Where you want to meet up and tell lies? |

Let's aim for the weekend. Saturday will be warmer, but windier. Sunday looks to be cooler, but much less windy. I'm open for either.

FYI, there is an event at Moto Liberty Sunday afternoon. They are calling it a Vintage Bike Smash Up, but I'd like to think it's more of a Mash Up. Starts at 2:30. https://www.facebook.com/events/406892393380562/?ti=icl |

Not me, but thanks, Tom. That sounds like a great idea! Where do you want to meet and ride?  If I were making a suggestion, it would be to... Meet at Prairie House at 380 & Naylor in Crossroads at 10-1015, KSU 1030, and take Rockhill up to Aubrey to 377 to St John to 455 to 35N to 3002 to 372 to 902 to 3164 to 678 north in Woodbine to 82, then west to the 82 Travel Center for either a burger (I believe there will be food at Moto Liberty) or a FRIED PIE. Fuel up, then 82 west to 35 South to 635 to Moto Liberty. But I'm not, so what do you have in mind?  |

If I can get a few things finished today, I’d be up for a “walk about” tomorrow |

Not available that early tomorrow, but the burger place at the 82 Travel Center closes early on Sunday afternoons. By 2, I believe, and earlier if business is slow. |
