we need to get together somewhere some how
Greetings Boss, Patched Members, Support and visitors. Been a busy week full of military programs. Took our Huey from the VVA to the Veterans home in Warrensburg, MO., along with the traveling Vietnam Wall spent 3 days there talking to the Vietnam veterans. This brought back lots of memories, good and bad to the veterans there. Over all it was good for everyone to get together. Also had 3 Honor Guard missions to complete, it’s sad to see so many of us leaving this earth, but it’s great to honor those who have served in the armed forces. Weather has also been cooperative with temps below “normal”, which made for very comfortable riding.
Good riding wishes to all, and be safe.

WOW u been busy
Greetings Brothers, prospects and support.
Not a lot to report from my area. Summer has been nice but too many projects. They get in the way of road miles. Made one trip to Minnesota and a few local rides. Otherwise all is well with my family and myself. Stay safe and ride whenever you can.

Glad to hear from you BROTHER .Three wheels for me also but what the hell still got the wind in our face.
Greetings Brothers, Prospects and Support. We had aloof 90 plus days here in the burg. Now it’s cooling off some, nicer riding weather, but I don’t mind the hot days. I had my 1000 mile service done not happy with the service at this Harley dealer. They could not have done all24 points they’re supposed to do, my bike was done in less than 2 hours. I questioned them, but I think he’s full of it. Well anyway been out getting that wing therapy. Was looking forward to an event called Rally on Main Street in Washington Pa. And my daughter planned a surprise birthday party for my wife and her retirement party all together that day. Oh well priorities I guess lol. I hope everyone is doing good! So that’s it take care ride often ride safe

Greetings Brothers,
Well another Sturgis Rally in the books. Man, this one wiped me out. Friday, we went to up Rushmore as many in my family had never been there. My one Sister Holly, yes I do have TWO Sisters Holly, both from same Mom. Isn't life interesting? Anyway, she offered me the rest of her ice cream. As soon as I took a bite I KNEW I was going to be sick. Sadly I was not wrong. It really hit HARD on Sunday, I couldn't get out of the bed and was totally a useless slug getting camp broken down, pack up and loaded.
Three of us had bought new bikes, even though all of us already had perfectly good ones. I was the only one who'd ridden, so it was a logistics nightmare getting everything home. But we managed. Of course, that's what we do.
The good news is, I'm pretty much on the mend right now. But still feeling not totally well.
And, to top it all off, Singer had some sort of "medical episode" a couple of days ago. We're not sure what it was but ever what it was, it's postponed, or cancelled for this year, my Beartooth Highway trip.
Other than that, I'm just glad to be home, in my own bed with access to hot showers.

Greetings Boss, Patched Brothers, Prospects and Supporters. We'll, last time I wrote about my plans to go to Indiana for my 60th. Got as far as Flagstaff when my right hand started to go numb pain shot up my arm to my shoulder. Not sure but sounds like carpal tunnel got to make an appointment with my Dr. at the VA got a brace see if that helps. Hated to miss out on my 60th hope there is a 65th ha ha. Still hot here not doing much riding suppose to have a break soon only in the 90s. Until later keep safe Brothers

we will ride with the wind in our face and the sun on our backs
Greetings to all Brothers, Prospects, and Support.
The summer is quickly speeding by, but the weather is giving us a little break from the heat. We may even see a few days under 90 next week. Arrangements are made for our Missouri Vietnam Wall Run in September, it’s always a lot of fun with plenty of veterans to share some time with. This year I believe Scooter will be joining Skinner and myself, it will be fun.
Hope everyone is doing well and can get plenty of time on the road.

Greetings Brothers, Supports & Prospects.
nothing new in my AO. We're headed down to Sturgis in the morning. Plan on being home on the 11th.
Will have family with us who've never been to the Black Hills so we'll be riding them around to all the spots, e.g., Devils Tower, Mount Rushmore, and others.

weather has been shit so be aware and careful
Greetings Boss, Brothers, Prospects and Support. I haven’t written anything for a bit. I was waiting to have my procedure done at the VA for my tailbone. I was supposed to get injections in my back when the doctor came to see me we talked I told him my problem is my tailbone. So he changed the procedure to that. They took me to the area where they do this and it only took about 30 minutes. They told me it could take up to 3 weeks before I get relief. Well the first 3 days I could hardly sit down. But then it started easing up. So not to keep going I am 80% pain free. I went for a ride Sunday and very little pain. Now I can enjoy a ride. It was terrible before I didn’t even want to ride it was that bad. Now I have to see how long it lasts before I get another set of injections. But for now I’m quite happy. Wish they would have done this when I first asked about it. There isn’t much else going on, it’s been a really busy summer and still going. I thought I’d let u know what’s going on here.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Take care

Good to hear from Texas stay safe and ride often
Greeting Boss, Patched Members Prospects and Supporters. Got home last Monday and haven't been on my scoot yet 0800 it's 100 degrees this year it's been really bad. I think it's all those damn mirrors we have on all the roofs and on the ground just heats up the place. Of course all that concrete doesn't help. Staying inside in the cool air. Hope it breaks soon have rain in the forecast. Seems the older I get the less I like riding in the rain, heat and cold the bones don't like it. Got my 60th coming up, high school reunion, in Indiana next month but don't think I'll make it wife hates when I ride long trips alone. Everyone stay safe talk to you later

Greetings Boss, and one and all. Just a quick note hoping everyone is well and those who are not a speedy recovery. Been busy again with yard work. It never ends. Hope for some riding time this week. Heading up to the upper peninsula in Michigan in 2 weeks unfortunately not on the bike. Stay safe everyone and hopefully will be getting together soon for a ride for those who are close by. NVFFNV.

a ride for fall would be nice, in September Rebel and I will do a wall run here in Missouri,I will post details later.
Greetings Brothers and supporters. It was great to see everyone at Nationals. Riding home I ran into a little gal from Wales that had come to America to see for herself the great country we are. Surprised me when she said I'm not a citizen but welcome home. Brought tears to my eyes. Wished her good health and safe travels. She was riding a Honda 650?
I just finished a cage tour from Az to Idaho, visit our boy there,then to Wisconsin to visit friends,then to Indiana to visit my sister now heading back. FNVNVF
