Great morning Boss Skinner, Brothers, Prospects & Support
well like everyone is posting two weeks and counting.
D9 myself and Rascal will leaving our AO on the 19th and should be arriving at the nationals on the 20th.
The weather out this way has been wet/dry, can't wait for all of this to clear up. gonna change the oil on Lame/Andy one more time before departure, just did it about three weeks ago, can't hurt.
Not much to report out this way, all is well on the east coast, life is good and God is great.
until the Nationals my Brothers, stay healthy be safe and live life to it's fullest..

All is well in the AO
If you all have been paying attention you'll notice that Thumpers mission is almost complete.
The elusive 1,000 is within his sights
A swift kill his eminent.
Failure is not an option.
Already dreaming of a celebration at Nationals with a cold beer and a steady handshake for My BROTHERS.
SEE YOU ALL SOON.

would not have it any other way right
Greetings Brothers, Prospects and Support,
Ready to hit the road, Bag packed for last two days. Will repack for first time tomorrow. Will eventually get it right.Will take bike in Saturday to see if I can get the BCM reprogrammed for my led headlight. Hate riding with fault light but don’t hold out much hope.
Hoping to squeeze the last raindrops out before I leave home. Not ready to dry up yet on the wet side of the mountains.
Ride safe, dry and warm!!

waiting and getting excited ride safe
Hello Boss, National Officers, Regional Presidents, Brothers, Prospects & Support!
I can feel the excitement for the National Run through all the messages posted on this board. It is great.
I had a great time at the Flintknapping (making stone tools) 5-day gathering in Kampsville, Illinois. I learned some new things & only hit my hand with the moose antler billet one time. 👍 Bessie, my Service Dog, went with me & she was perfect the entire time we were there.
Big WELL DONE to two NE Region members; SAA RTO & Prospect Rascal, for the flag placement on Veterans graves for Memorial Day! Along with 18 other volunteers they placed 14,000+ flags.
Boss, thanks for getting your friend to come to National to sew patches on cuts.
I was reading about your engine warning light. I had both the red light & the yellow light when I got home from our ride to Beckley, WV. Initially I thought it was a low battery in the fob but while I was gone to Kampsville I left the trike at HD & got the oil changed & some other things checked including those warning lights. The warning lights had come on because of a problem with the rear brake light switch. I guess I should get a manual for a 2016 Freewheeler so that things aren’t such a mystery to non-mechanic like me.
That’s all from my AO, see you at National!!

mission possible
Well the ride for cancer and St.Jude's went off rather well except for my check engine light came on.Rode about 10 miles with it on not really knowing what else to do because we were that far from a town some might remember Eminence Mo we stayed there twice for National.Got there and my good friend Tracey had the answer he reset the computer and all was good.Oil was good and screen showed good oil pressure and the light went off after the reset.Always ride with some one smarter than you who knows Harley's it sure helps.
Kim and Jeff owners of Sunset Point rode with us nice couple and they ride what more could you ask for.
Bike will go into shop for further check and will have it put on dyno machine.
that's it from here ride safe.

It's a great afternoon, Boss Skinner, Regional Presidents, Patched Brothers, fellow Prospects, and our great Support. I am trying to help get that number over 1000. So if you tired of me, just say so and I will come down with a bad case of broken finger. Like everyone but Texas, the sun has been out every day, and the temp. has been between 80 & 90 each day. Had AAA hall my trike back up to Rapid City so they could fix my clutch. It was a simple fix, and they had it done the same afternoon. Went up to Rapid about noon yesterday, picked up my trike rode it back to my brothers in Hot Springs. Every thing is working great so now I am itching to get going to National. Until we ( the Patched Brothers, and one old Prospect from the NW ) get there, ride safe, watch for the ones that are not watching for you. Be safe, see you at the National. Gods speed!

Top of the morning, Boss Skinner, Brothers, & Support
the flag planting task went really well, Prospect Rascal, myself and about 18 others successfully planted some 14K plus flag on the graves of our brother veterans, this always humbles me.
D9, myself and 7 other rode to Gettysburg memorial day weekend, D9 has never been there and she took in a ton of history in one day, it's hard to believe that we had a battle in our state in 1863 that lasted 3 days and took the lives of many. we walked through the town of Gettysburg and was at awe to see the bullet holes in many buildings on our walk to breakfast Sunday morning.
Hope all is well and like many people predicted, the scamdemic has come to an end in June, to bad this all took place and lives were lost over an election.
peace of the lord be with you all..
