Don and I decided we would do rides 1 or more times a year to initiate members. You first become a probie by posting ride reports with food or riding with riding and eating with us or other members locally. That will get you and eat to ride ride to eat rocker for your vest. Then you must attend one of the mandatory rides to a predetermined location where your eating skills will be evaluated. Then after Don and I evaluate your skills you will then be told if you made the cut or not.

The first ride will be to Arizona but the location and food will be kept a secret until later. Don and I will plan a time probably in October or November. We got give the probies time to prepare.

At last something I can do well. EAT. I am a bit to far north but I can post eating reports and pictures. :yahoo:
FJRay: Brother, you're naturally in our Club. Panman from Washington State is also in. I do want to use side and frontal pictures of Panman showing what an "ideal" Los Robustos M/C member should look like! We're also going to post side and frontal pictures of SkooterG and Big Chief Stinky Pants to show prospective "probies" what a Los Robustos doesn't look like!

Those guys are skinny enough they have to run around in the shower just to get wet. If Skooter could grow into his ears he might have a chance. :D

 
Dear FJRBluesman and Silver Penguin: johnny80s and I were on the phone last night and we discussed a number of "Los Robustos" club formation issues. Topic of Fairlaner heading up a Southern California Chapter of Los Robustos was an item.
We're taking this under consideration, but we do have some misgivings. 1) We acknowledge he does consume burgers, fish and chips, etceteras.... We also recognize he eats no fruit and no vegetables. This is a prized trait in all Los Robustos M/C!!

The stumbling block in selecting Richard as Los Robustos SoCal El Jefe is this matter of holding off on lunch until 1400 hours!

2) This may be the final deterrent keeping National President Juan and Sergeant at Arms Chuy Medina "El Burrito Ballerina" from moving 'R' to the Highest Rank in Los Robustos SoCal: He does not eat Mexican food! It actually hurt me to write that sentence, I have eaten Mexican food every single day of my life except for the two years I spent overseas in the US Army!!!

No food on the face of the planet is more fattening, greasier, muy delicioso and containing calories like La Comida Mexicana.

Mexican food is our Lord's, the Aztecs and the Spaniards gift to the World: "El Rey del Mundo!" Southern California is truly blessed with some of the finest Mexican food restaurants that exist, as does Phoenix. And Fairlaner doesn't eat this bounty!!
:rofl: :rofl:
I think I just peed in my pants. :rofl:

 
I hope you'll wear your new colours when you next visit the UK. I'll even arrange a RTE in your honour.

Field trip! To find some REAL fish and chips! In the meantime, yo quiero un burrito grande con salsa (y una margarita o dos)

Awaiting a response from Fairlaner here. What's the betting that his answer is some interpretation of WTF?

 
Hey Don...Thanks for inviting me. I was gonna bring Biscochitos, but now I'm keeping them all to myself. :p
Senor HotRodZilla: AJ, mi amigo, you know full well you are, and always were, our go to guy when it came to Los Robustos en Nuevo Mexico. Naturally, johnny80s and I are going to make you El Jefe for NM Chapter. Can we still have Biscochitos?

Make sure El Presidente gets his cut of the treasure.

Generalissimo, Si: Con mucho gusto! Ah, muy delicioso biscochitos! Here's a favorite recipe, from Senora Romero of Taos.

Biscochitos: "This cookie is traditional in Taos, New Mexico. This particular recipe was given to me by my mother, Margaret Miera Romero."

Ingredients:

6 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

3 teaspoons baking powder

2 cups shortening

1 1/2 cups white sugar 2 teaspoons anise seed

2 eggs

1/4 cup brandy

1/4 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)

2. Sift flour with baking powder and salt. Cream shortening with sugar and anise seeds until fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Mix in flour and brandy until well blended.

3. Turn dough out on a floured board and pat or roll to 1/4 or 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into shapes (the fleur-de-lys is traditional). Dust with a mixture of 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon.

4. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.

 
Geeesh. Now were going to have to ask an admin to have a "cooking" or "chow" section.
New meets, Los Robustos EOM, CFO, etc. :dribble:
Simon, and the problem with that...would be what? This fat, happy, old Irishman likes to eat; and I like cooking good food.

Also like to collect recipes of interesting foods: I'd love to have Bustanut joker's recipe for goat dumplings, odot's recipe for pickled baby seal and RadioHowie's recipe for fricasseed manatee. Already have HotRodZilla's family recipe for armadillo tamales and they were absolutely delicious. Who knows? Maybe we'll find a fish and chips recipe that Fairlaner finally likes?

Thanks for the admittance to "Los Robustos".

Have to admit I must be eating light today. My"comida mexicana" lunch is only 800 calories.

I will have to make up the missed calories tonight at dinner.

My name is Geezer and I am a chowhound. :rolleyes:

I remember zzkenoman who started the Epicurean Riders club a few years back. He crashed his FJR pretty hard and, after healing, moved on to some other bike.

I found this on the internet today and first thought of Johnny80's, then his new cousin Beemerdons.
Chowhound.
Thanks FJRBluesman! You know John, I think it's time that we formed our own Motorcycle Club called "Los Robustos M/C"!

We could have colors just like the Hells Angels, Banditos, Vagos, Hessians and the other one percenter outlaw biker clubs!

Just like the Red and White, we'd have denim vests with 1% patches on the front and the number 13: Letter M for menudo!

On the back the white top rocker would read "Los Robustos M/C". In the center, instead of winged death's head, we'd have two items crossing each other: A carne asada burrito and a bottle of Negra Modelo cerveza, over a bowl of cheese nachos!

The 1st bottom rocker, also in white with red lettering, would read: "RIDE TO EAT!" Next rocker would read: "EAT TO RIDE!"

Just like the HA, we would have a Sergeant at Arms. I would take that position. My job is to make sure everybody cleans their plate. We will also need a National President, like Sonny Barger of the Hell's Angels. johnny80s: You are "The Man!"

We'll be very selective of our members! We want guys that look like you, me, FJRay, Travis, madmike2 and all of the rest.

ShinyPartsUp is an automatic!

our mission.... would be to devastate restaurants. We walk in and buffet tables are wiped out in 5 minutes.

My bro johnny80s, we'll discuss this over our 2nd helping of apple pie and ice cream in Julian. "M/C Brothers at the Trough!"

I had a fine bottle of Negra Modelo cerveza just last evening with my tamale and burrito con pollo with some ceviche shared with the wife.

But I take offense! I am not an automatic, but manual shift.

However, I accept the kind invitation. I suggest members earn their bones by eating an entire rotisserie chicken to the bones....

EDIT: I had lunch with GalaxyBlue (Adam) last Friday at Si Casa Flores in Sutherlin, Oregon. I nominate this fine specimen with cudos for grabbing an amigo and demanding hot sauce and asking for more picante!

 
Geezer: Greg, you also are included in Los Robustos. Up at WFO-8, attendees thought that you and I were twin brothers.

Geezer, it was a pleasure meeting and riding with you at WFO-8. I also have been enjoying your Ride Report on your trip.

Fairlaner: Sir Richard, fully agree with you on steak and kidney pie. Had my first sample of this delicacy at Eastbourne in East Sussex the Summer of 1970 when I rode my BMW R60/2 to England from my US Army base in Augsburg, Bavaria, Deutschland. Thanks also for the information on zzkenoman, I will try to make contact with him regarding Los Robustos.

Galaxy Blue (Adam): You are also included in Los Robustos. When you came out to visit SkooterG last year and the two of you rode together on Greg's FJR I was impressed. Adam blew the shocks out on The Dirty Old Whore when they sat on her!

Shiny: Glad you're a member! But really, an entire rotisserie chicken? Shiny, for johnny80s and I, that's just an appetizer!
