Coming Soon
"Greetings and Salutations" is how my first letter came, so I joined Uncle Sam's Canoe Club! I've corresponded with NVMC NVP-Dutch and NVMC N-P Skinner. Wow, stand up individuals for sure!
This morning just north of the Florida/Georgia line I woke to 66 degrees and the driveway alarm going off. After investigating, it was a doe standing there eating acorns that had fallen over night. I guess she wanted an early breakfast before the squirrels go them. I've been riding since I inherited a '50 E-model panhead that I hid from my mom. Dad sold it once I got orders to the USS Kitty Hawk (he said that he doubted they would let me take it with me). I did a couple tours on the "ShittyKitty" as a plane captain (that is Nav-Speak for Air Force Air Crew Chief) operating all over Yankee Station. Whenever one of the squadron's birds got diverted I was the NCO that flew into DaNang, Bien Hoa, Tan Son Nhut and Phan Rang to see what had to be done. I was fortunate enough to also do a 180 day tour with the USN Mobile Riverine Force (MRF) working out of Dong Tam.
After returning to the world I bought a 1976 centennial edition FXE brand new. Never thought I'd ever pay off the $39/mo payments, but I did. Kept it until 1983 when I was at Daytona Bike Week and eyeballed a new FXRS Shovelhead (rubber mount and 5 speed-wow!) at Robinson's HD. This was before a Harley dealer became a "boutique" full of "motorclothes and chrome accessories". I rode that about 180k miles and found that I really needed something better for this old bag of bones so I found a birch white 2000 FLHTP-I which I now have. I stripped the red/blue lights and electrics off of it, got a new seat and pegs and off I go! Other than some lumbar & cervical surgeries, some AO poisoning, age-related macular degeneration and a renegade attitude I figure I am going Okay to be all I can be on a daily basis.
I was in Atlanta when the VNV/MC started up, never joined but was a welcomed guest but pulled away because of other's needs to chest pound and show off. What has drawn me to get information about the NVMC is two fold-Mission Statement and the fact that the NVMC does not involve itself in other MC's business. My phone call with NP-Skinner whet my interest for more. I am not a big "joiner" just for attention seeking. I do not reach for prestige nor praise. I pledge my support to God, my country, my brother before myself. My "cable tow" has two ends (some my understand that phrase). I "H-O-L-D F-A-S-T" on my end. Want to know more about me, please ask.
