Very good turn out @ Kehde's today. Sure missed you this round Pig9r. I'm still burping BBQ taste, which is always OK by me.
Let's see, there was Raymond Brazwell of KC and three friends(not sure where they are from), Ironbutter(Swanee) and friend, both from Topeka, KS, Vonbonds from Maryland, BigErn from OK, Rusty from St Joe, MO, Pianaman from Olathe(?) KS, Patrick from Kansas side of Kansas City. Tomo from Blue Springs MO, and me, Hondax from Windsor,MO.
I regret I was not able to spend more time bull sh____g, er, talking and getting to know y'all.
I'm sure this won't be the last time I see many of you.
We had seven Rockets in one place which is the most I've ever seen "live". Four Cardinal Red and three Black. If Pianoman continues to accessories at current rate, He will run out of places to hold the handlebars.
As great as a Rocket looks, I have to say Harley Davidson makes some REALLY sharp looking bikes, as three stunners were @ Kehde's.
BigErn told us he should have his Rocket back together in a week or so and will keep us informed.
Sorry i can't remember Swanee's friends name from Topeka but he had a sandwich called "Carolina pork"(?) made with sliced pork roast and cole slaw and it looked real appetizing. I will try it soon. You can make book on that!!
Ray told me about a biker bar in KC called Knucklehead's that's on my list of places to go. Sorry Vonbonds I was not able to spend more time with you, having come from Maryland and all. Maybe we could swap declassified high tech stories as I, in a past life, worked for UTMC (United Technologies Microelectronics Center) on a couple kewl Gov't programs, one in particular with the Isreali Air force.
Tomo was able to answer questions from my 3 X 5 card to my satisfaction,....thx Tomo!
Patrick had lots to say as well, which seems quite natural for him, and pleasurable for us. Thanks to all for showing up and making the ride to humble Sedalia, giving me many memories to reflect on. Pictures will follow as I did manage to take a few.
PS-got to get one of those backrests Pianoman and Vonbonds have.
