Somehow, I believe you have firsthand knowledge of this.   :o

I have never, not even on Indian summer evening when I was 28 and on a dare from a girl name Tammi (even if she was on the back seat "steering") rode down the highway at about midnight in my birthday suit.  Never.

If there are not any pictures, it never happened.

Reminds me, if there had been cell phone cameras when I was younger, a lot more stuff would have happened.

Oh my sitting here a little Mom and Pop's Fried Chicken Place called Chicken Mary's.  I love this place. Always busy and always friendly. My waitress tonight is a brand-new first night on the job 17 or 18 year old kid named Grace. She seems nervous as hell. I think I gave her a $10 tip for the $12 meal to make her night.

Don,
Where is Chicken Mary's located? Sounds like a good ride.... in about 2 months...

Don,

Pittsburg, KS.  Actually just north of. 

Interesting local restaurant history.  Something of a feud actually.  Chicken Mary's and Chicken Annie's.  I've read (and forgot) the details many times probably.  There was one.  Then there was the other.  Some family tie.  Then competition.  The newbie has only been in business like 65 years.  The original a good ten years longer.  Neighbors on what I call "chicken dinner road" but is actually E. 600th Ave.  Sometimes competition, occasional (weird) fanboys, but always fried chicken.

The two places are literally right next to each other.  So which one I visit simply depends on which way I'm coming from as I get there.  There's also another branch of the chicken feud.  That's Pichler's Chicken Annies.  They're also a very long established place now.  Pichler's is good too.  It is actually 15 minutes closer to me.  It's almost too close.

Dammit, now I'm hungry.

Rode 600 miles on this day....  the water bottle I brought to hydrate was also 115 degrees so it was like drinking hot coffee.   I ended up just poring it into the wind in front of me and soaking myself for about 4 minutes....then it was gone.

Hope it was a good ride.  Never decided whether gawdawful hot or brutally cold days in the saddle were worse.  Actually it may be an easy choice.  Worse was always cold and wet.  That combination truly sucked.

Yep.  Road along Lake Superior day 1 - 93 degrees and sunny.  The next day, 47 and rain!  Day 2 sucked!
