Bowl N Roll write up
Saturday was a hot, humid yet fun day. The temperature was in the 90’s as was the humidity, the type of day in which a cold drink taste heavenly. Each of us did our best to take a few glimpses upward.
After we paid the piper (and planner), we left for the first bowling alley and rode a back way to Northland Lanes where we had excellent scooter parking ... yes on the sidewalk in the shade. Look at the picture posted earlier on this page. This is the lane where the highest game was bowled ... a 187 by me. The low score was by Denise and may have been in the 40’s.
The second bowling alley was at Gladstone Lanes which was a dark cave more than an alley, as if a permanent Cosmic Bowl was the norm. The salty and gruff staff threw our game off (it wasn’t that we all suck!).
On the way to the third alley we rode by last years crash site that Joker had on his Stella. Other than his pride he wasn’t hurt, but the Stella did attain a few scratches then. The NKC Pro Bowl Lanes (505 E 18th Ave., NKC) has go-carts and mini-golf so we are going to keep that in mind for a possible future ride later this year. This place was enormous and had a fun atmosphere complete with a waitress who took our food & drink order.
After every one bowled their last game, all three game scores were tallied. $25 prizes were given for highest average (me), lowest average and median average.
This ride was something we had been wanting to do for over a year. Plans for next years Bowl ‘N Roll will begin shortly. If you have any feed back please let me know.
