Earache

It's kinda odd when no one else at the table is drinking and you're sitting there on your fifth beer during dinner. Makes ya look like a drunk as it is.?

As it should be!

Mexican restaurant - that's all they had!

It was a nice building, but the food was kinda crap. Check out all of the tap handles at the bar - this is only 1/2 of them as the other side of the bar has just as many. 100+ beers on tap. So I wasn't really there for the food anyway?

Only had two beers at dinner last night. Trying to cut down, ya know....

I had the All-American Burger - burger with cheese and some fries...

Started off with a small plate of nachos and then the wife had shrimp tacos....

Almost 20C and sunny in Denver today; we sat at a local and had a late lunch. No social distancing here - bar was full as were the tables. Overhead doors were all wide open and it felt great - just like summer...

You could soak that shit in sugar water and beer and it'd still suck! Smells of poo as well.

Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin are about the only areas of the USA where you'll find lutefisk. These are the areas that the Scandinavian immigrants moved to years ago so they have Lutefisk. I lived in northern Iowa as a kid and lots of the Iowa-wegian (what we called them) restaurants had it on the menu. That shit is foul ! Can't believe anyone can eat that shit. My parents (children of German immigrants) would eat it, but I never went near it.

That truly is some Pedro food right there!

The wife had a braised short rib with some kind of crunchy stuff (shaved almonds maybe?) on top with a brown sauce / gravy on it. Mashed potato are underneath with some asparagus on the side. Oh, and another Stella for me.

A few more for Pedro..... Started off with an appetizer of Stella this evening and followed it with some sort of Kung Pao dish with chicken. Basically veggies, chicken and rice.....

Seems like yesterday. I've been planning the shit outta next summer's rides for something to do. All of this planning and routing and I know I'll end up tossing it all away and do something completely different....

Or an ISIS member....

I have to use facefuck for work related stuff in my shop. But I don't post political shit, personal stuff or the like. Hell, I don't even use my real name. It's a necessary evil. Have always liked the format of Forums better - easier to post pics of rides, etc.

I forgot about that - and it was like 25 years ago. I was on a '93 or a '95 CBR900RR. BRP is pretty much 45 all along the whole thing. Way too low for the quality of the road if ya ask me.

I'll admit it - I ride like my hair is on fire and my ass is catchin'. Rarely do less than 85 / 90 mph on motorways and 10-15 mph over on other roads. Yet, I have never had a speeding ticket on a motorcycle in over 400,000 miles or so of riding. Dunno why, just dumb luck, I guess. Got pulled for 61 mph in a 55 zone last summer - no ticket, just talked to the Trooper for a bit.....

At least it wasn't wasted then.

June or July - height of the tourist season. I cross the Park (to get to the other side) early in the mornings when I have to. It's not too bad then. The western side of the Park has little or no traffic - only the east side does as it's closer to a town (Estes Park, CO). Western portal of the Park empties into a barren area devoid of towns.

Admit it, you've got the hots for Lou Bunch, don't ya?

Ahhh Madam Lou, she sure was a looker. She's buried on the hill above town now...

I remember this guy; he wasn't dressed up for the day, he was just in town from the ranches for the fun. He fit right in!

They're off...

Sheriff keeping things civil...
