..had a great little 'dinner' private event for their past customers this evening. Good food..the gal playing acoustic and singing was excellent.

I usually hit their lunch buffet on Saturdays during riding season which hopefully will start up again in April...

What's to improve? They hit the pinnacle of engineering perfection in '36 when the gravity oiling system was replaced with the positive oiling system and have not needed to do more than a few tweaks since. Although my favorite tweak was the addition of electric start, the EFI was a nice touch too..I'll admit.

I was there yesterday.

Food was great, I thought..except the shrimp seemed to have no taste at all, despite how pretty they looked on the platter. That ham was kickin!...

I was worried about looking like a 'wimp' for not showing up on two wheels. LOL..I don't think anyone rode there.

Need to get up there and look at the Street Glide. Thinking about a new one this year.

Is that where Vincenzos (sp?) was? I took a bike ride thru there Friday, saw the new sign and the 'reservations only' sign.

Yes. We didn't have reservations the two times we have been there. :shrug:

Riding season? I thought they only had that in Minnesota?

Nope. Riding season for this "fair weather" rider is April-October.
