Hey Kevin, is this ride October 20th, 2013?

It is a Sunday, reason for asking.

Hey Terry & Rob.

Are you aware of this ride?

You will also get an email from me about it.

[ksmith50229]

yes it is , blade has to work on saterdays ,  dont think we have done a sunday ride before so we will give it a try.

[R J]

Sounds good on this end.

[R J]

Kevin, 1 last question.

Are you going into Missouri?   

If so many of the riders will need helmets.

[ksmith50229]

no we will keep it in house i dont want to push my luck not sure how many miles will eratate the shoulder .

[R J]

I'm kind of like you, but mine is AGE.

I'm thinking of taking my Grandson, just in case I can't make it.
I tire out pretty quick.     Seat was built to fit my butt several years ago, since then I have gained a lot of weight, and I'm cramped up pretty good.

[ksmith50229]

it would be good for him to go and have some hang time with grandpa

[R J]

It will be ride with grandpa, and hang with dad & grandpa.

His dad is going to take MGM if he doesn't forget.    LOL.

[ksmith50229]

sounds good, the wife tells me it better not be cold or i will have to tie her up to get her to ride.

[R J]

If ya need any help in the tying her up, will be glad to hep ya.    LOL.

I know the littler they are the harder they fight.    LOL.

My 5' 6" niece, litteraly kicks the sheet out of her 6' 5" husband.

She caught him cheating on her about 2 years ago, he didn't want no nookie for quite awhile.     He had to carry his kahoons in a wheel barrow for like 4 or 5 weeks.     She told him if she caught him again he would be a steer.    Yes, she was a farm girl.

[R J]

We are glad you can make it.

[R J]

I won't be on the ride Sunday.

I took a header down the basement stairs and done something to my good shoulder.

Got a Dr appt tomorrow to see what the damage is.

Dress WARM, as it is going to be COLD,  yes COLD

[ksmith50229]

you have got to quit doing that , you know its only going to hurt when you land , the sudden stop is  a bitch. do what the doc tells ya .   looks to be in mid 50s  on sunday thats not bad , makes you feel alive   if you can take the car meet us at the tous restrant on the south west corner of the square in knoxvile for lunch. ( if it is to cold for some bring four wheels more the better.)

[R J]

I really only have one good arm and the Dr, bless his heart, wants me to not drive for a week or maybe 2.

If I can get my son to come along and drive we will try to be there.

He has to drive me to my Cousins funeral Friday, Bless his heart.

Hello people,
We are having the lunch ride regardless of the weather this coming Sunday Oct. 20.  If it is too cold, come on over on 4 wheels and meet us for lunch at Taso's in Knoxville (west side of square).  We should arrive 11:30-11:45ish.  If you want to follow us, we will leave Casey's north in Winterset at 10:45am.

They have major construction around their square so here are a few pointers.  If coming from the west, take the second Knoxville exit, I think it might be hwy 14 also Lincoln St. and go north.  Turn east at Casey's on Robinson St.  This will take you right to the square and you can use street parking right there.  You can get on the west side sidewalk to get to Taso's.  Look for which door to use, they should have a sign.  I believe you have to enter through their back room due to construction so walk to the front to let them know you have entered.

The menu is good sized and all of the food we have had, has been good.  We would love to see you and catch up!  We really should plan more get togethers in the off season.  I am not sure if we will be riding or driving. Kevin has been riding to work still so he is use to the cold.  I am kind of wimpy and don't like the cold, so I may be driving!!

Hope to see you there,
Jody

hey RJ madison will be at lunch tomorrow if you can make it.

[R J]

I'm running around with one wing.

That is pretty hard to drive and or walk and carry the O2 bottle.

I took a header down the basement stairs ealier in the week.

Dr. suggested I take it easy for 10 days.      He didn't say take it easy, he just suggested it.     I think that puppy is figuring this old fart out.

LOL.

If I don't make it, tell her I said hello and give her a big hug for me.   Tanx.

[R J]

I been up most of the night with my shoulder and my hip.

Didn't realize I hit my hip on the way down the stairs.

It isn't black and blue, but it sure keeps ya awake at night.

I went to bed at 10:00 PM or so, got up at 2:00 AM and just relaxed in my big chair.   

My eye balls got heavy so I went back to bed about 2:45 AM.

Was back up again on the hip hurting at 3:20 AM.

Went back to bed after taking 2 Aleve's at 4:45 AM

Just got up abvout 15 minutes ago.   Or 10:10 AM.    Even if I tried real hard, I don't think I could make it to Winterset by departure time.   Have a safe ride.

Hoping it won't be needed, but if anyone needs a tow truck for their bike, call, I'll bring the trailer, you can load and tie it down, and unload it where ever you want it taken.

NO, I ain't goin no where today and maybe ever tomorrow, with the exception of the 1sr paragraph up from here.

I need a GOOD night's sleep.

I'm setting here at the keyboard and my head is drooping every few seconds.

Hope ya enjoy the ride, and Madison, I'm sorry I missed seeing you, but that is life I guess.

See ya all in my Dreams tonight hopefully.

[R J]

OH, I forgot.

WE NEED PICTURES.

We also need a ride report.

Thanks.
