Live to Ride...Ride to Eat

[Stichill]

Headed over to Ripley today, ferret! What a perfect day for riding. This September weather in August is incredible. :biker:

Fresh pavement on Kentucky 22 between Falmouth and Willow.

The big 1/2 lb. double cheeseburger is called the Fats Domino. I went for the 1/4 lb. Bogart Burger. Miracle Whip? Lol. It was still a decent burger.

Single dip Butter Pecan.

Back to old Kentucky and burley tobacco.

 

[the Ferret]

Lol very cool. Had I only known. Son and I rode 100 miles today. Would have been about the same going back to Ripley. Bogart Burger is what I usually get. That or a club sandwich ( Elvis club?) with crinkle cut fries.

This is really a good thread! I wish I could plot a cross country tour based on breakfast, lunch and dinner at small restaurants like these!

Cool diner Ferret and Stichill! That big bopper burger could feed a family of four!

Sounds (and looks) like a great day Stichill.

Lunch ride with three friends today.

Hamburger on pretzel roll with beer cheese and battered & fried jalapeño peppers & onions. Cajun fried potatoes. Absolutely delicious.

I usually avoid "yellow zones" on the map that are fraught with traffic and un-fun riding. However last summer a friend revealed a secret, relatively untraveled route - through hidden green spaces inside the asphalt jungle - that can be taken from our office in order to reach a Greek lunch counter.

Today I made the journey and ordered up the combo of gyro, fries, and a soft drink. Absolutely delicious.

This is great! Someone should write a guide touring American connecting unique small restaurants linked by back roads all about 4 - 3 hours apart!

I would enjoy touring America this way, riding back roads, looking forward to a unique dining experience at every stop.

I would even pay for such a guide!

Pictures like Stichill and Ferret take would be a must ;-)

Offroad, commission Stichill and EmptySea. They could take the Ferret with them, which would result in a wide variety of eating experiences!

I ate at the Historic Beallsville Diner today on RT 145 in Beallsville Ohio. Inspired by Stichills KY ride I had a personal pan pepperoni pizza. Pretty good. What was even better? RTs 26, 800, 255, 78, 145 and 78 in se Ohio. Good night I have had 3 days of great motorcycle roads. Headed home tomorrow and will post up some pics then.

Btw I know I just posted up a milestone pic on the ST, but will have another by the time I get home lol.

Worn out.. Headed to the hotel Jacuzzi now

Wow. Keeping working until retirement, or start riding and eating. Tough decision!

Mate, if you don't start eating soon, you won't live long enough to retire!

[Stichill]

Cool place, offroad :biker:

...beautiful meal, use2b!

Crewitt's Creek Kitchen & Bar in Independence, Kentucky USA.

My riding buddy had the Grouper fish sandwich:

I had the the "Down South" fried chicken sandwich, hot and delicious. Wish I'd gotten a better angle so you could see the chicken!

 

[the Ferret]

I like chicken sandwiches. ( don't care for slaw or hush puppies though)

I rode my brother up to Dayton, Ohio to pick up his repaired new T120 Bonneville. It had a stalling issue so they replaced the fuel gauge sending unit?..( Only know 3 people with the new Bonnies, all 3 have experienced the stalling issue.. How come dealers act like they have never heard of common issues? ) and anyway on the way home we stopped at one of my favorite "chain" restaurants. Steak and Shake. Never disappointed in their double steak burger with am cheese, pickle and catsup and fries. My brother always gets the triple with everything but cheese, add jalapenos.

Great sandwich and it's only $4 with fries.
