[Edit description for Kansas City]

If you like water fountains, Kansas City is the place for you.

Known as the "City of Fountains," because there are 200 different installations, Kansas City is a large, mid-size city sitting on the edge of the Missouri border right next to Kansas. With about 444,000 in the city limits, the KC metro area comes in at just under 2 million people.

Established in 1853, KC has a deep history in cattle, barbeque and jazz music. It is now a center for commerce, as the SprintNextel Communications company has a major base in the KC metro area. A big sports area, the Kansas City Chiefs (football), Kansas City Royals (baseball) and local college teams (Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri) receive much attention throughout the year.

A must-see in KC is the Country Club Plaza region just south of downtown. Filled with restaraunts, shopping and nightlife, the Plaza is a great place to check out and spend an evening.

Okay, after seeing these videos you will no doubt believe this crew is absolutely insane! It really is hard to explain how we arrived at this, so you will just have to watch the videos...they will explain it better than I can. The first video is the queening ceremony of Mellemel8, aka Queen CW. Melanie had to be properly queened before she could carry out her duties of knighting her round table footmen.

When I decided to go to the KC Meet Up, I contacted James and Mark to see if they were aware of any biking activities in the area that might be available to us. I love to bike and have found that it is a great way to really see a place. You get a feel for the neighborhoods, the people and really see a lot more of the area. Not being biking types, James and Mark had no ideas for me. I turned to trusty old Google, and found an organized ride complete with sag and sweep s...

Today was the final day of this incredible weekend. Everything started early, well for most of the people, since they had to catch early flights back home. James also left early. He drove Will to the airport and he was in his way home. I was so glad I could say good bye to them the night before. During the morning it would have been just impossible. Well, I have to accept I was surprised that 2 of us, didn’t go partying until late the night before in order to be ready for the “Bike ...
