Greeting Patched Brothers, Prospects and Support. Hope all is well with everyone and your families. As with many riding time is coming to and end sooner than I care for it to. Still have a few days I’m sure. We finally got some rain today. One of those all day rains heavy at times. I agree also with Brother Rebel sick of those political commercials, glad it’s over.
Let the F150 go and got a jeep wrangler. Always wanted one so I can cross that off the list. I’ll put some pics on Facebook page I was waiting for the new wheels to come in. All is good here. Went to my daughters a couple days ago and she’s all decorated for Christmas, I said you’re really pushing the season. 😂😂.
Prayers for all who need them. Well that’s it for now.
Take care all, ride safe.

Prospect Taco here! winter around the corner! But was able to get out for a ride today! Temp is 52 a little cool ! Other than that working on bikes ! And of course dealing with VA going good there I have a great VSO! And proud to be a Prospect for this Club!
Greetings Boss, Patch Holders and Supporters. Riding season coming to an end for a lot of us and good riding weather coming to those in the south west. Hopefully will get a few more rides in . Looking forward to the Nationals next year. Stay safe on the roads and hope and pray for good health to one and all. NVFFNV Scooter
Greetings and salutations "P" Koch, patch holders and Prospects of "Nam Vets" MC. I actually came across your MC by chance, catching up on current news about the VOVMC, which I heard was heading towards extinction. I was a patch and AZ state "P" for a short while 2009-11. I mean no disrespect, but I was unaware of the Club until now. I'm currently a member of the CVMA, Chapter 32-7, Kingman Az. So cutting to the chase, are there any patches in my area? Although I enjoy the Brotherhood of the CVMA, I miss the true Brotherhood of MC's. I'm not sure if I should include my cell number since I don't see a box for it, but would appreciate a contact.

Am Calling It for 2024:
Had changed out the oils & filter a few weeks back, but was holding out hope that there was one more ride.
Yesterday November 3rd, I called it.Was 34 degrees and starting to snow.
I pulled the bike out and washed it, back into the garage and up on it's stand. Added the fuel stabilizer and hooked up the Battery Tender.
Now, over the coming winter months, I will wax on - wax off .... several times.
Come next Spring, when I wheel that Road King out and the sun hits it, the shine will be so bright it will down aircraft .... On The Road Again, 2025 ...

Greetings Boss, Fellow Patched, Prospects, Support, etc. Well cold weather has finally arrived. 60-70 degrees day and mid 40-50 at night. For us that is cold weather gear. We had very little rain here also. I agree with Brother Rebel 100%, This constant commercial crap is a pain. All is good our AO, Positive Thoughts and Prayers to all on mend. All for now Boss. Ride Safe All LLBRF NVFFNV
Greetings Patched Members, Prospects, Support and visitors. Let be begin by saying, as much as I am worried about the outcome of this year’s election, I am so sick of the commercials!! Every candidate in our area only talks about his/her opponent lying about him/her! No one really tells me what they are going to do to make things better.
Now that I’ve got that off my chest, things in my AO are warm and very dry. We haven’t had any rain in a very long time and we are quickly approaching an 8” deficit. The leaves are falling off the trees before they change colors.
On a good note, riding has been very comfortable with the warm weather and dry conditions. Looking forward to our National when we all get together, I enjoy that so much.
Hope all are doing well and prayers for those who need them.
Respect to all,
Rebel

Good morning Brothers!!
As Oliver Hardy would say, "Isn't this a fine kettle of fish?"
Family vacation to Florida during a Hurricane. Luckily where we were staying all we had was a bit of rain and a lot of wind.
Got home on the 2nd.
Yesterday, we had to evacuate our home due to huge fires that came, yesterday, within 3 miles of town & our home.
We were going to evac west to my Brother's home. Singer was behind me in her car, I was in my car. We drove into heavy smoke (PSA: do NOT do that!!). Singer lost sight of me. I was checking my rear-view for her, looked back at the roadway, truck tractor with tank semitrailer tumped over, on fire & blocking both lanes of travel. I swerved hard right onto the shoulder and almost in another disabled car on the shoulder. I swerved hard left and missed them all. Counted to 10 and Singer did not come through.
Risked driving east in the west-bound lanes back through the crashes. Yup, Singer had impacted the big rig. Jeep is TOTALED. Fortunately, with today's airbags, seat belts and other safety equipment, she suffered only minor injuries, the most severe of which is a broken right pinky finger.
I got her out of the Jeep and into my car, hauled ass back to Ray thinking I'd take her to Tioga ER. Called 9-1-1, they had me wait at the gas station in Ray for an ambulance. Then we had to wait there for the road East to get cleared enough to get through.
Eighteen miles from Ray to Tioga, there were several farm buildings on both sides of the highway fully involved in flames, two cars burnt out, a H-D dresser on its side. The rider was evacuated 90 miles east to Minot with multiple, non-life threatening injuries, and several oil pads afire.
After Singer was released from hospital, my Brother Kenny, some of you met him at Sturgis a few years back, had gotten us a hotel room. So that where we are now.
After first light, I'll get in the car and head west see if a) our house is still standing. I figure odds are about 70% is it. B. Go back to the crash site see if I can't find one of the cats that were in her Jeep. We had 6 carriers, arrived at the wrecking yard with 5 carries. So I'm hoping somehow our missing kitty is in the missing carrier at the site. Three of the carriers were destroyed on impact. So Mouse could've gotten out when an investigating Deputy opened the car door.
Bottom line is, for now, we're okay. Stepped out into the hallway, still heavy odor of smoke.

Greetings Boss, Patched Brothers, Prospects and Supporters.
I'm finally pretty much settled into my New AO.
Sadly, all is not well. The state of Tennessee has limited my driving capability and I now need a walker to get around.
I guess after years of self-abuse it finally caught up to me.
For those of my Brothers that are seeking 100% disability. Be careful what you wish for.
There's a reason the VA puts you at 100% and it's not good. It Hurts all over and my and my daily prayer is to have the Lord take me home.
For my Bros that still Ride, Ride hard, Ride often, Ride Proud and let Our Colors Shine.
I may not be there in body but my spirit will always RIDE WITH THE CLUB.
love, loyalty, Respect and Brotherhood Forever.
NVMCFFNVMC............................THUMPER.

Greetings Boss, Patched Brothers, Prospects and Supporters. Hotter then heck here 116 yesterday and I was out in it riding a memorial ride. One of our Legionairs "Major" died on a Motorcycle accident went off the rode fell about 150 feet off a mountain. He was a member of the Capitol City Riders MC in Madison WI. Riding home afterwards I checked the temp it was 116 out. It wasn't to bad I had long sleeves my face was covered had a rag on my head and a chemical cooling rag around my neck but that darn Milwaukee engine just about burned my right leg off and I had a home made heat deflector on my right leg. So it should be cooling down now to 100% which is nice with no humidity. So until later stay safe. Still working on next year's Nationals
Greetings Boss, Fellow Patched, Prospects, Support, etc. Well nice day today, weather is finally cooling. Had good lunch with Brothers today. All is doing good our AO. Trike is almost finished, Age makes working on her slower but I'm stubborn ( not paying $ 165 an hour when I can still hold a wrench LOL ) I hear you about VA boss, Anyway hope you have nice weather and safe journey for wall. All for now, Positive thoughts and prayers to all on mend. Ride safe All NVFFNV LLRBF
