Me and my riding bro's took off Saturday morning at 7:00am from Milford, CT and traveled to South Philly to Geno's for some Philly Cheese Steak wedges. We got there around 1:30 and chowed down. After sitting around for around an hour and eating we took off back home. I got in around 6:00.
2 weeks ago we took a drive up to Great Barrington Mass. It was around a 300 mile day. We had our wives on the back. It was a great day.
So far... since theend of August, I have put 2500 miles on my Sportster.
I ride a 1988 1200 Sportster. Its a Stage 2.5+ conversion done by Johnson Engine Technology. My friends all have big bikes. 2007 Screaming Eagle Springer, 1996 Softail custom, 2001 Fatboy. I have the small bike out of the bunch. The only hassle for me is the frequent stops to the gas station. I can only go 85-90 miles before I have to hit the reserve. They can all go around 180+.
I need a bigger tank!!! I would like to get something that is 4+ gallons and that is a bolt on with no mods necessary.

 

genos might be more famous, but me being from philly, im going out on a limb here and saying steves prince of steaks would be a better choice if you ever get back here.

 

The steak at Pat's is better.

 

Being a redneck, I certainly can't debate the different Philly Cheese Steak places in Philly, but DAMNIT, now I want one. I've been to Geno's but it's been years. That was some pretty good eatin!!!

That sounds like another good reason to try and make a trip up to Laconia Bike Week, next year.

 

Philly huh? Try a Chickies prociutto special next time. Then hit Isgros on the way out for a canolli. You'll be in heaven all the way back. See the shops at DiBruno's and Claudios. Best day trip I ever took, again and again and again...

If its got two wheels or tastes good, I'm on it.

 

How does it compare to the white house in Jersey?

 

Went down to Phlly yesterday to hit up Pat's which is a far superior cheese steak to Geno's. I was gearing up for round two when some locals told me about a place called Tony Luke's off of Front St. Not bad, but way too good. The meat was lean, the cheese was neat and the bread tasted just too damn good. I like my sloppy, cheesey Pat's, thats the way they should be made.

 

I grew up on PATS cheesesteaks, use to drive from jersey across the walt whitman bridge and over to pats for a nice greasy cheese steak !!!!!!!!the trip only takes about 15 minutes from where i growed up in south jersey......I miss that place alot at times !

 

Phils Steaks is good as long as you dont mind almost getting shot to eat a good steak! But Geno's is the best!

 

Bunk all this..........what forum and I reading in anyway. <southern drawl>Youse guys shouldn't otta talk about phili cheessteaks wheres us southerners can read what yowr tawking bout.......

I was stationed in Phili for nearly a year and been passsing thru for the last twenty till I got a local job about ten years ago. Now I can't even make it up there on a day trip....... and I can't pick between Gino and pat's but I can durn shore have a taste test session when I do get back up that way.
