    I have only tried that cheese once. A few years ago we did a gift swap at the Malt House and I think Snowwwy brought it. We opened it in the bar, much to the dismay of the other patrons, and it was like a stink bomb went off. Smells horrific. Tastes fantastic.

    Stink bomb is spot-on. it's certainly an acquired taste that doesn't even run in gene pools. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limburger It was a regular visitor around our house growing up in Funroe.

    Be sure to have a Gemütlichkeit beer at Baumgartners.

    Well hey there, Scott! :wave

    Stuckinarut went on that Costa Rica moto trip I was pimping awhile back, that my godfather runs tours of.

    Have any cool pics or stories to share?

    Hey there Zora and friends :wave Hope your arm is progressing well.

    Your godfather is a great guy and guide! The Costa Rica trip was a true adventure and I would highly recommend it to anyone that is thinking about it. From hot humid sea level to cool cloud forests at 9000 feet. Day one starts with an urban enduro through San Jose. The people there drive like maniacs! The volcanic mountain roads were spectacularly fun. Numerous water crossings, lots of rocks and wonderful scenery. I will have to prompt ffchick (aka gadget girl) to post up some pics since my computer skills are somewhat limited to occasional posts and ordering cycle parts.

    How you get 5 bikes across a river crossing (this was the 2nd of two, there was a small land mass in between the two)

    It was a great time. Zora's godfather Dan is an excellent guide and a fun guy. We had a blast!

    You are so cute. "A vodka". Reminds me of old people who talk about drugs and say so and so "was taking the pot".

    I'm teasing. You know I love my straight edge Kira.

    That rainbow picture rules!!!

    Meet-N-Rides can be fun. :nod Post 1951

    It would be nice to see more of these around the region. Local hosts can come up with some nice routes local to them.

    Yes please.

    Last M&G I was at in Madison I suggested that we do a ride to Animosa, Iowa to see the National Motorcycle Museum. That would be a fun day trip, or maybe overnight. Would anyone be down for that?

    Sweet!

    I'll try to come up with some dates. So far my summer is fairly open, especially since potentially being homeless for the duration of it. I'll try and come up with some dates and throw them out there to see what we can work out.

    Oh, and I almost thought I would be able to go to the SE WI M&G next month, but it's the week after my spring break, so no dice for me there. Bummer.

    Y'all Missed out. The GF and I were heading home from a family function in PdC and took the opportunity to stop in at Hydrostreet Brewery in Columbus. Turns out Little John was just finishing up a bread baking class-- FREE FRESH BREAD!! :dg

    You won't be alone on a 250. I'm taking the Vespa to Delafield. We can find a route that stays below freeway speeds.
