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..

RTO...................................out

Greetings Boss, Patched Brothers, Prospects, Support etc. Well things have come around in our favor. A place came up about five miles from us, Put in a bid and to my surprise he accepted offer. Turns out He is retired Veteran also. Told agent to give my number so I can thank him proper. All is good our AO. Twenty boxes packed so far and about half done. Closing is coming up fast, 23rd on ours and 25th on new. I have to agree with wife, This is last move. Mind says just rent truck but body says think again LOL. Praying all have a great and safe National. Will keep you updated Boss, But I am pretty sure all contact info will stay the same. LLRBF NVFFNV

Hello to all Patch holder Prospects and support
Just a line to say every one be safe on your way to NR 2021. It is better to be a little late then not get there at all.

Hi, fom the rainy state of Texas! I haven't been able to do very much because of all the rain we've been getting. I'm excited for Nationals this year it sounds like it's going to be a good time, so many new people to meet. That's about all for now. See you at Nationals!

Top of the afternoon to Boss Skinner, Regional President, Patched Brothers, Prospects, and Support. This will be the third time I have started this letter. Each time something happens and it goes away. What I was going to say was, on my road trip so far I may have stopped and asked other bikers that were stopped on the side of the road to see if they needed help. Some where over a doz times. The clutch went sideways this morning just as I turned to go to Hot Springs. As I sat on the trike, bike after bike went by. They all seemed to be in a great hurry. No one stopped. This made me wonder if they were all from Calif. or Canada? About the time I was going to give up on bikers stopping to help other bikers, 3 people stopped in about 10 min. Well a little of my faith has been restored. No matter what, I will continue to stop and offer help. Keep the rubber on the road, drive safe, and see you at nationals.

putting your helmet behind your bike on the ground is the sign you need help.However being the good person as you are you obviously do not need the sign hope they all appreciated your concern.

Hello All! I’m leaving this morning to Cage to Kampsville, IL (5/30/2021). Flintknapping this week. Once I’m there text/email is very spotty so I’m difficult to contact until next Saturday. I usually check for messages in late afternoon so I answer mail then. Only 3 weeks until the Annual Run....See you then!

OK, here I am again. Top of the morning Boss Skinner, Regional Presidents, Patched Brothers, Prospects, and Support. I am in the Black Hills of SD. In my heart this will always be home, where I was born, and lived the first part of my life. Had my trike in a private HD repair shop to do a couple of minor things, before I leave for nationals. From the time I first got my trike, till I dropped it off last week, I have never been able to put it into neutral with my foot. I have had to reach down and use my hand. When I first walked into this shop there was a lady picking up her trike that she had a none HD part installed in her clutch. So as I listened to what was being said, she had the same trouble with neutral as I did. The mechanic had replaced her shift drum with an after market one. This NL shift drum moved neutral from between first and second, to all the way down to where first was. Guess what I had him install on my trike. The old girl had over 28000 mi. on her front foot, so I had a new shoe put on the front. I picked her up yesterday, and rode away smiling. I am visiting my brother, and sister while I wait for the NW Patched Brothers to pass by so I can hook up with them on their way to Nationals. Ride safe everyone I want to meet as many of the Patched Brothers, and Prospects as I can at Nationals.

Greetings all!

Yard sale last weekend went really well. Got rid of a BUNCH of stuff. Surprisingly, I posted some clothes on FB marketplace and there's been a LOT of interest.. wow!

Got lucky and are in the process of selling the old RV! Doc and I will have to work our tushies off tomorrow to get all our stuff out of the old and into the new. Hopefully, the rain we're getting today will have gone elsewhere. 🙂

That's all for now!

LLRBF!

Greetings Boss, all my Brothers, Prospects and Supports. I hope all are in good health or if not on the mend. Nationals is just around the corner now! I’m itching to hit the road to see all my Brothers! Memorial Day is here once again. For us, Memorial Day doesn’t come once a year. It is with us every day. Not one day goes by when my lost Brothers are not in my thoughts! I mourn their loss and celebrate the good times we had! I raise my glass to all my Brothers lost but not forgotten. Stay safe this weekend!

true words

Rebel from Lees Summit wrote on 05/27/2021 at 7:16 pm

Presidents, Patched Members, Prospects and Support, hope this message finds everyone in good health and preparing for National. Raining here today again, this is the 10th day out of 11. This morning the news said to watch out for tics because it’s been so wet. Couldn’t believe this was true, but after working outside this morning, came in to take a shower and had 5 ticks doing their thing! Watch out people in wet areas!! Hoping we don’t have a Lyme disease pandemic this year.
Can’t wait to meet everyone at Nationals.
