Wednesday is bike night at the Sinclair Grill, a legendary establishment now closing its doors. The Poor Fellow Knights of the Road have come for one last night. Are rumors of secret societies true?
Description:
Webberville is barely big enough to support even a tiny diner. The Sinclair Grill brings in regulars from out of town with Jeep Night on Tuesdays and Bike Night on Wednesdays. The local chapter of the Poor Fellow Knights of the Road are loyal customers. They trade stories, enjoy some good food, and have a few drinks. The locals don’t know them, but they appreciate the revenue that keeps the diner open. Things seem different tonight. The atmosphere is too somber, the conversation is too quiet. Tonight may be the last Bike Night at the Grill. It sounds like the Local chapter of the Knights is breaking up and the Grill is closing - and no one really knows why. There are always rumors. Talk of a traitor or a spy among the Knights. Secret societies, hidden for centuries. Even dark magic and assassins. But this is just a Mid-West diner. Let’s put that nonsense aside, and enjoy the meatloaf.
