Rock n roll ride
#1



Brother and I got together today for a ride. 41 when we took off at 11;30 but before we got home it was 61..unbelievable for this time of the year in the Ohio Valley

First stop was for lunch at Rockin Robins in Ripley Ohio

cute menu ..I had the Elvis Club "thank you very much"

after lunch we hit 41 from the river to West Union and then 247 from West Union to Hillsboro for a little rock and roll of another kind

At Hillsboro we stopped for a spot of Tea

then took Rt 50 down thru Fayettville, and Owensville

at 222 we split up with my brother heading north and I heading south to home.

145 miles today. Awesome. Tomorrow is supposed to be almost as nice so the CB will get to stretch it's legs some.

Nice one Ferret. Though I think I'd have gone the "Rockin' Rueben".

Cheers

Thanks for the pics and report, ferret. I think I would gone for the Rockin' Reuben though!

61 F is amazing! We've got a few days of high forties to mid fifties starting tomorrow, so I'll be out too. It's been over a month so I'm itching to go.

And Ferret, did you find that the Miracle Whip prepared you for the cold ride ahead?

Cheers
I must go and have breakfast. I've spent 20 minutes looking at the menu and 20 seconds at the ride photos.

I'm German...when my folks made sauerkraut I ate at the Italian kid's down the street (They always had spaghetti it seemed). Can't stand to even smell kraut cooking.

Mmmm, there'a little cafe, sandwich shop in Blackshear that serves a really excellent Rueben. My problem is I like all cuisines from Italian to Thai to which my ample waistline bears witness. I will not, however eat egg plant and I don't care how it's prepared.

Nice ride Micky, glad the weather has been so kind to you folks in more northern climes.

Can someone help me out? Tara's Chicken Salad intrigued me as it offers 'white meat chicken'. Is there some other kind in the US? Are us Aussies missing out? Again?

Good report as always Ferret, demonstrating yet again that man does not live by bread alone. He must also go for a ride.
