Kansas City

Day 10

No new mileage

Just much sleep

Last night was lovely, went to a microbrew had garlic fries, and a pizza had fun watching the St Pattys day kids get arrested for drunk and disorderly, came back took a shower and went to sleep....BTW mom&dad, happy anniversary!!!

So my bike is currently sitting locked and covered in the hotel parking garage right under a light on the ground floor right next to a sign that says "smile you are on camera. I got my cold weather gear from my wife, but really only grabbed my heated jacket and some underarmor. I am sending more stuff back with her than taking. I called up Engle Motors BMW and they had some spare parts. I'm getting some grommets for my side cover that has been living in the side case, so I can mount it. Getting some rubber inserts for the foot pegs as the bare metal vibration is killing my feet. The oil pressure switch, and the rubber piece for the shifter. It amazes me that dealers still carry these parts in stock. On my KLR, I could not even get the proper sized valve shims without an order. BMW on the other had..has obscure grommets for a 1980s bike on hand. I know I joke about dealers being stealers...but seriously, to have parts on hand when needed is A+ in my book

In any case, lunch was enjoyed with my wife on the steps, take out veggie Chinese. Tonight will be another microbrew irish pub type place. I know bass ackwards should have gone irish last night, but hey I never make sense.

Tomorrow will be leaving mid morning, visiting the dealer to grab those parts, and hoping to get to Indianapolis by 6-7pm 450mi away.
