Ooooh, the secret is out!
Congrats, Steve. Nice looking RT.
Great looking machine.... and a great decision!
Steve was pretty excited and rightly so.
We took a quick hop so he could check out his quick ride and then back to his place to hide it before his wife got home.
Then I dashed home before work missed me. I was successful in pulling off my 3 hour "long lunch" without detection.
Have I mentioned lately that I love my job?
We're meeting at the Full Moon on 41 and riding up to Racine/Kenosha to watch the Salmon run in the rivers.
Quite a sight!
Two of us so far - anyone else interested?
Working all weekend but next one I am off and know I will be ready.

I pushed the reset button.....
At what hotel will you be staying? Depending on your locale I can check it out and give you some possibles . . .
Hyatt Regency, McCormick Place...don't have a clue where this is. Sunday night may be our only free time as we are working Monday and leaving 6pm Monday.

The good news is that you're in a wonderful new Hotel, the bad news is that it's a short cab ride from anyplace I'd actually recommend.
Now that we've established the cab ride - what kind of food do you like?
My esteemed associates are correct - the Rush Street area is hopping, even on a Sunday night and if steak is what you want, Gibsons (in the Rush Street area) rocks as does Sullivans.
Texas is hard to beat for Steak and Tex-Mex, however, you might want to try something different?
Rosebud (Rush Street) is good Italian - but it's big restaurant Italian as opposed to the real thing.
Talk to us - what are you looking for?
I'm a foodie in addition to the BMW addiction. Good cheap food is appreciated as well as good expensive food. I would think that Chicago would have some killer ethnic restaurants...no chains. When I need a steak I just reach out my window and slice a piece off the nearest steer, so unless it's world renowned steak I would pass. Really great Italian/Polish/German/Russian/Bosco/etc. is a shoe in. My traveling companion is just a lad but relatively adventurous. Also, I need to know a great Dog stand. I've been to the famous deep dish pizza place, a famous but poorly executed rib place on the south side, a great diner downtown that does a mean Reuben and a great dog stand close to a college. Don't remember any of the names but don't want to go back to any of them (except the dog stand)so I guess that doesn't matter.

Try the "flaming saganaki". It is the stuff!
Anyone up for a ride Saturday?
I am desperate.

This place is totally Italian... but a modern Italian menu, not the heavy stuff. Zagat rated and always brilliant.
I take clients here when they want a real Chicago dining experience. 50/50 chance some of our "Outfit" guys will be dining there at the same time, so you know it's good.
(You don't want to give Joey ' The Clown' Lombardo or the Grand Avenue Crew a bad dish. Joey is actually in prison now, but the Crew is alive and well)
Their Pasta Fagiole is best best in Chicago... and perhaps North America.
And a short cab ride from Rush Street where your understudy can gaze on our version of nightlife.
Usual disclaimers.
Oh, Hot Dogs.
