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!

looking forward to it also.
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..

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.

wet here also
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.

See you all soon.

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!

stay safe have a great visit
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.

sounds like a plan and glad your trike is fixed.
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!
