Wow Hoser! I didn't know their was that many "ORF'S" in kansas that still rode a motor scooter  Glad you made it back safe... At your age that is tough on a person's body staying up that late and riding. I would never consider doing something like that  |

That awesome... way to go Clint  Yeah that is more miles than I have you ORF's have way too much time on your hands!!! But it's a good thing he has a wonderful bike to take up his time  yeah Hoser, can't wait to meet Clint sounds like a good guy... Anyhow.. I am stoked about tomorrow but I better get some rest now.. I have to work for a bit tonight... I am planning on leaving Topeka by 6:15am heading west on I-70 if anyone wants to tag along I will wait at the exit of I70 and Auburn Road. I believe it is exit 353 on i70. I will depart at 0625 if anyone wants to ride along send me a message or post so I know to wait on you... According to google maps it says it will take 3hrs to get to there... Everyone ride safe and can't wait to see everyone! |

Great Day, great fellowship, and great riding! Wow what a time. I started off meeting Stude31 here at Newton, I think cause he was dressed in black and riding a black Interstate he thought he was in Stealth Mode and flew in by 8:00 am. We grabbed a quick bite, filled with gas and met Raymond, Rhonda, and Blackduck Ks with his wife right on time and off to Hutchinson we went. The skys were clear, the air was warm and fresh, the ride over went well.
Upon arriving at the Kansas Underground Salt Museum we meet up with 1FastBob and his wife in his "Bullit Mustang" almost as cool as a Valk and definately not a KIA (couldn't resist SS), and Valkhound, who flew in as well under the radar. After an interesting tour it was off to the Dutch Kitchen at Pleasantview for a good home cooking taste of the Amish. A place that could give Motomama a run for her money when it comes to pie! Or maybe it is visa versa!!!
After lunch it time to wander the Kansas prairie and take in the sights, sounds, and smells of the harvest that is in full force. A little of natures animals was observed and even a few HD's spotted. Most of them were headed the other way, but one young lady got to watch as five Valkyries blew by!
Overall, a great day with friends. I got about 210 miles in and the others a lot more, but an honor and privilidge to meet and spend time with each of you. Let's do it again soon.

Thanks JD for planning the get together and ride that followed.Made it home just as daylight played out and missed all of the deer too! Joe I hope you made it home before the temps got too cool.It didn't take long for the temp to start falling like a rock once the sun got low.Thanks for coming down.Always a pleasure to ride with ya!

Very good day all. I wish we could have kept on riding we could have been just about to the mountains about now. Lets do it again soon before the air cools down too much.
Nice seeing everyone today and I hope we can meet again soon.

Sorry we missed it, but it sounds like y'all had a great time! Good deal! I hope to join y'all next time around! Lori, we missed you as well, but that just made it easier to talk about you and Carl! The stories that Raymond and Dana tell, my, my. Hope you guys get some wind and if you get this way holler. Okay, I confess we didn't talk about you, but maybe we should have! JDW |

Just letting everyone know, Stude31 made it home safe and sound. He sounded pretty beat, but should have, he worked all night rode 430+ miles and up all day. Almost sounds like he could make a railroader when he grows up. Great meetin up with you again, Joe! JDW

I had a great time in Hutchinson meeting all of you and being 650' below ground level in the salt mine. It was great fun. Lunch was pretty good also. With good people like you to run around with makes me seriously consider keeping the Interstate and not selling it. Wish the Interstate was running better so I could have brought it and went on an after lunch ride. Stopped at Sears and bought a creeper seat and an inch pound torque wrench so now I am ready to kick some butt on those plugged Valk carbs. again. Soon the Interstate will be running smooth. Take care and thanks!

Hey I made it home at 7:05pm and 452 miles later. Had an awesome time as mentioned previously. Dana always good to see you brother! Had a wonderful time finally getting to meet Bob and Cathy. You two were great sports and I hope you felt comfortable from the get go. I know I really enjoyed visiting with you two. Bob, if you liked our outing just wait until InZane it is an amazing group of folks I am so honored to be apart of a group that truly cares for one another and would give the shirt off their back for a fellow member. I hope you get your I/S up and running to snuff so you can bring Cathy on a ride.. Raymond and Rhonda, great to see you guys sorry Lori couldn't be there oh the restaurant would have been "sshhhhing" you two!!!! Oh well next time.. and Raymond here is the link for my brake lights... http://www.ombexpress.com/p_VE269.aspx tir3 light and the chrome bezel http://www.ombexpress.com/p_VE260.aspx Blackduck it was a joy to see guys as well.... John "Engemt" Whistler.. hmmmm all I can say is the Black valkyries are always swarming under the radar.... "fast black"!!! Good riding with you as well... Here are a few pics that I was able to capture prior to realizing that my batteries in my camera were almost dead.   Someone is trying to get educated but memory won't hold up so they have to refer to snapping picture of a picture and then the writing to the side.....   Notice where the class clowns get to sit at? |

I made it home just fine you all. Always fun to see everyone and new faces. It was a very great day for me. Second time on my bike since surgery, and I was glad it was a beautiful, windless day in Kansas. I did go straight to bed with ice pack on the shoulder and slept for 4 hours!! Teehee!!! Gotta stay home today and do some homework instead of riding with my man. Let's do this again, except we can leave the salt mine out next time. Hey Lori, did miss ya. We'll text next time side by side!!! That will be fun for us, but not for Raymond. Hahahahaha!!!! Rhonda, glad your shoulder is getting there and you made it home safe as well! It was a pleasure to have you along as well. JDW |

mmm, I feel a little envy poppin up here. Couldn't go Satuday because of work, but did manage to hook up wih Clint, Venture Bob and 3 off duty cops on Harleys for a little 300 or so on Sunday. Ventured up into Nebrasky and Mizzou, Pigged out at the breffus bar at the casino again, and took off for Rulo Ne. croseed the river and went to mound city and on north to the bridge back accross the river at Rockport. Found out it was closed, considered going on into Iowa to cross at Nebraska City. Blew a blast down I 29 to cross again at Rulo, instead. 80 mph against a 30mph headwind yeilded 30 mpg, not bad! Anyway, glad ya had fun, we did too! hoser

I rode out east and back Sunday. That wind was brutal. I didn't even want to go the speed limit at times. I was doing good holding 60. 350 mile day and my neck feels it today.
I was on a picture mission to Mildred.

stude, it was nice meeting you in blackwell today. We will have to get together for a ride sometime.
So everyone can figure out what I am talking about I rode from ponca city to wichita and pulling up to the stoplight at I-35 I looked over and saw stude on his I/S at the gas pump. I had to pull over and talk.

The Hickory Tree in Smolan, Ks but they are only open Fri/Sat nights @ 5-9pm, or Sundays 11-2 pm,never been but heard it is great BarQ. The Farmhouse at Abilene not open on Mondays, Sunday 11-2, tues-sat 11-2 or 5-9, again never been but heard it is very good. Meridy's in Russell, Ks. has fantastic steaks, a bit pricey but good. The Airport Restaurant in Hutchinson is also very good. How's that for suggestions! JDW |
