GUESTBOOK

Greetings Brothers, Supports, Prospects and well wishers!!

Hope everyone is keeping some sense of sanity during this more than difficult period. It will pass. I'm sure we'll have a "new normal" to adjust to afterwards, hopefully it won't be much different from our old normal. Not the place for a political rant so that's where I'll leave that.

My main point for writing tonight is to invite all to read, or re-read if you've not done so in a while, our Club's Mission Statement, About Us and THE PATCH pages.

I am humbled by the words and know I ride with Giants.

Hello to all. I pray this finds everyone safe and sound. The day I finished the sidecar governor gives a stay at home order. Which I was doing anyway. And now it’s been raining for two days. (Dog thanks he’s a duck.) But this will give me a chance to clean and polish the bike and sidecar and also clean the garage.
Still planning on riding to Texas this summer when this is over with. Hoping a bunch of us can meet someplace. Maybe a campground. But I’m still hoping for a national. Well not much else to say. Everyone stay safe. Big John

Greetings Brothers, Support, Prospects and lookers.
Hard core Spring here in Idaho yesterday. Rain, snow, hail, sleet and wind each taking their turn dealing gloom through out the day, kind of a mean April fool's Day. Lol Sun is shining today and temps in the 50's I hear. Hopefully take a ride get groceries and isolate and baby a cup of coffee.
My prayer is that we all take appropriate safe measures to protect ourselves and others while this C-19 dies anyway.
May the Lord protect each and all associated with our Club.
Continued healing to Boss, LAAM, Gumpy, Brelon, Top and others. Amen.
Seems alot of us under attack with many issues, (let me know) We are fighters and been thru the fires many times, carry on the good fight.
I so hope we can get together this year for a National and Regional runs. They may be modified from what's planned, but what is in our best interest is paramount.
Love you all. Prospects keep up the contact, doing so let's us get to know and build the bond of Brotherhood. Patch collectors not needed.
Stay well be safe

Some eye opening facts from a Dr out of Texas. Go to my FaceBook page and read it and get serious about keepin to our selfs. We have all done this before, by that I mean stay within our own AO. Put I think putting a knees in the wind is OK. We are holding are own here in Missouri, I'm finding more ways to cook venison!! Be save, "Be smart".
Sorry, to say we might postpone Nat'l, but I believe it's for the best, it gives us something to look forward too. God Bless. NVFFNV

Greeting Patchholders, Supports and Prospects.
Just saying this to will pass. Haven't been riding at all. Just trying to touch base with my East Region Brothers. Bottom line chin up and be safe.
When this is over want to see each and everyone of you.

Just had a nice earthquake here in Idaho. 6.5. Epicenter Challis, ID. Nice little distraction from the...you know what! Hope everyone is happy and healthy.

Quarantine GREETINGS to all Brothers, Supports, Prospects and on-lookers!

All good in my AO. Ventured out today for a quick store run. Didn't buy any TP, have plenty, but did stock up on Dr Pepper.

Raining like crazy here, guess Dutch's snow got here as rain.

Best to our BROTHERS, wash your hands, maintain distance (pretty easy) and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate

Hi everyone! I'm one of the lucky few. So far there has been only one case of COVID-19 in the county I live in. The only restriction we have is you have to keep a distance of 6ft between you and other shoppers in Walmart. Poor Twin went back to Wichita Falls to check on his house and do some book work and got caught in a shelter in place. Don't know what we'll do for our first legal anniversary, it falls on Sunday. I'm afraid if I go to Wichita they might try to keep me. LOL.
On a brighter note we are looking for a buyer for my bike. Shouldn't be to hard...THEN I will get a really cool looking trike. It's red and looks like Mickie's first trike. I just hope the guy still has it when I can get it, it's been on Craigslist for over 30 days so far. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Oh well, I've bored you all long enough with my rambling, stay safe out there.

Ray Koch was in the process of growing a third leg to kick my butt with for not fulfilling my requirement of bimonthly communicating. I glossed over that part, and just didn't pay attention to detail, I was focused on the part about the meeting in June in Piedmont. That is not an excuse, it is just what happened.
Things in LA are probably no different than where you are. When I was asked about coming to the national meeting, I was in the mists of flying or riding. I now know I need to change bikes if I'm gonna ride. My Gold Wing, FB6, is just to tight to ride 2K on it. I put on foot boards
and had the seat worked on, and mounted flip-out hyway pegs on the engine cases. I gotta tell ya', when I look at that group picture I see all the guys in my Helo squadron...I was in the first Helicopter Squadron in the M/C, HMM 362, (UH 34, Sikorsky) and I was the first black helo crew chief in the crotch. And since we're into ancient history, I was one of the the last Marines to go through boot camp at, "Montford Point," at Camp Lejeune. (Go to, "First Black Marines") or ("Montford Point Marines").
I started riding in the 60's in Iwakuni Japan and have pretty much been riding since then, I got my share of road rash, and broken bones, from the time when I was too stupid to know gas and booze do not mix well. All of my bikes have been touring bikes, a half dozen full dress Hogs, and some rice burners. I don't what made me think this short quartered FB6 would work??
This Corona crap reminds me of Typhoon season on Okinawa when we pushed the lockers up against the windows in preparation for the "big blow," only this time approaching getting Cabin Fever.
I'm outta' here guys, talk at ya' soon...Hands
