I hope this find all of you well and safe. This last couple of months have been hard on my mind. I struggled with the lost of friends . The thing that helped me the most ,was knowing my Brothers in NVMC had my back. I love and respect them for that. Thank you Brothers.

Made it home after a short run down to FLA to see Family. Met my Sister for the second time in 61 YEARS. We were separated when very young. Thank you Ancestry DNA and Nichole.
While in Fla I got to spend time with Brother Buddha and his lovely bride, who makes AWESOME spring rolls! A long time friend I'd not seen since 1991 and on the way back got to spend time with Brother Bear and Patty. Sorry Brother Bear I couldn't stay longer and get some fishing in. Definitely next time!!
Taking a trip in a cage up north for Beth's HS reunion. I'm making HER drive most of the way. Planning on being back next Wednesday. Then I'm pretty much in for the season.
Looks like Grumpy is planning a great Regional Spring Run. Looking forward to that.
That's all the good news.
I am deeply saddened by the passing of TC. His new Club may have been closer to his home, but in corresponding with him it was plain to see NV MC was always close to his heart. I know some of us had a very good relationship with him and we will all miss him greatly.
SEMPER FI MARINE. Love you Brother

Hello Brothers and Support,
Well Grumpy,Digger and Steamer are working on Prospects which makes me proud.Hopefully we will pick up two new Brothers.Remember dues are now $75.00 per year and joining is $150.00 non-refundable if a Prospect passes all our requirements.Need a application let me know.
No news is good news have not heard from Laam or anything from Slingblade or any other Brother in need at this time.
Doc Gonzo is still on tour of duty so to say.Hope he makes it home safe.
My web man has advised against adding music due to royalty status,He is looking into another add on so we can make photo albums by event and year this could be free or may cost.
Thats all I have for now LLRB.

Greetings to all Brothers, Supporters, Family, and Friends!
I'm still on the mend, it's funny how little things we take for granted are the ones that hit us hardest.
Like a motorcycle, I'll get 'er fixed no matter what it takes and get back on the road!
We can't let these bumps we encounter slow us down- the clocks are ticking!
It may sound weird, but I'm counting down the days to Winter Solstice so we can get ready for next year's big and little rides. Hopefully, Nature will give us some dry roads in between.
I'm always aware of who I represent, my Brothers- and all those who never got the chance to come home, buy a chopper, and see the country they fought for that cost so many in blood and peace of mind.
What we experience in our travels reminds the world that we're still here and all those gone but not forgotten, ride with us.
So ride tall, keep your troubles small, and have a ball!

It always amazes me that after all these years there are brothers out that that feel the need of the brotherhood we have to offer.
We are not a large club and that is a blessing in many ways, each member knows every other member. We also have an unconditional brotherhood
we will come to each others aid no matter what.
I will be meeting another prospective member soon and if he qualified and willing to prospect for a period of time to be determined, he may be accepted into our rolls.

The old good news bad news.Good Laam is recovering and will be back , Bad news is we can not get to the mail box so any snail mail is not going to be retrieved from our box for awhile.

Greetings to all Officers, Brothers, Supports, Prospects and well-wishers!!
Just returned from a GREAT Regional Ride. Weather held good for us, we got a few rides in, but mostly it was about the Brotherhood, being together and having a good time.
Glad to hear everyone made it home safe and sound even if drenched to the bone. Ya, weather didn't hold so much for the ride home.
Hopefully for the next Regional, Mother Nature and life will allow more of us to gather.

Was with a member today (September 13, 2018) and was given a card from the "Steamer". I am a Nam Vet, was there in 1966-1967 serving mostly in the Cambodia/Vietnam border area and the "Delta" area. Saw lots of nasty stuff like most of us did. Welcome Home my Brothers.......
Will have to decide if I want to join a group of Nomads. I'm kind of loner but outgoing if situations warrant. Be well, be safe, be wise. Ed Stanley is my mentor at this time.

Steamer Thank You for introducing another vet to our Club.Welcome home James I'm sure you can find a home with us if you will just hang around awhile.
Brothers, Prospects and Support,
Been busy preparing for Hurricane Florence. Apologies for not posting sooner as I have been consumed with worries about my Daughter and family's safety. As for now it seems that Florence is going to take a turn my way. I have prepared as much as possible and rest assured that if it gets really bad there are shelters close to us that we can retreat to! Retreat has never been an option for me but older age makes me rethink things don't ya know!! Thanks for the calls and concerns! Will keep my Brothers up to date until this monster passes. Love, loyalty and respects to all !! Bear

good to hear from you I also talked with Doc Gonzo and Buda.Both are sending good wishes and offering to come help is needed.U will be in our prayers for safe keeping.
Brothers; I don't expect much in the way from the storm here; we're pretty high so flooding shouldn't be a concern. Just lots of rain maybe some winds.
For after the storm; if ANYONE effected by the storm needs help, LET ME KNOW, I'll load up my truck with supplies, tools, whatever and make my way to you.

I HAVE JOHN LOOKING INTO THE HIT COUNTER AND OTHER ITEMS ON OUR PAGE.
Had the good fortune of get'n to meet up with Brother Steamer, and meet his better half Jackie. It was good conversation about the Club, and events of 52 years ago. I had forgotten soooo much !
The wives got to go "walk" about, and mine feels like she now has another "good friend", while Steamer and I sat in the garage, listened to tunes, drank some beer, and refreshed each others memories of long ago. Feels like the visit was all too short and they had to leave the next day, but it reminded me what this thing we call Brotherhood is about.
They are back in the land of the furnace, I'm look'n at Fall. Life is good at the homestead !

Well boy howdy! Hello all Brothers; Supports; Prospects; and well wishers!!
Finally back from my Summer gallivanting. Posted photos on FaceBook if you're interested. No NOT all of them, only 65. LOL, I took more than 750. YIKES
Shout out and a HUGE THANK YOU to Skinner, Ellen; LAAM, Donna; Grumpy, Geraldine (HAVE A GREAT Ireland trip Brother) for your hospitality.
Final total miles was 6,954 to and from my AOR.
The only glitch was bike developed electrical issues after California which I failed to recognise till I was well into Indiana. Luckily my Daughter's roomie is an automotive electrician and fixed everything up right. And I didn't even have to buy him dinner. I would have, but he had a date.
I'm glad to be back in my AO. I got Black Betty back from the shop yesterday. Man she runs like a scalded dog. Looked down at one point today and the needle was north of 90. A guy will get greetings from the Governor doing that sort of thing.
Looking forward to my next trip, short one this time. Down to Florida with my Brother Kenny whom some of you met at Sturgis. We're going down to meet our Sister whom we've never met.
Good times!!
Anyway, Brothers I've rambled on long enough

glad it was a safe trip I 'am sure we all envy u in some way for the ability to do what ya did.
Well Brothers I haven't been on here for awhile. Thought I had let you know I am still here! I am planning on making the fall run so I will see as many of you that show up! I do understand if you can't attend. I had so much crap going on in my life this summer I can relate! That is why I missed the national. It was good crap either! I hope it is finally squared away but time will tell. Looking forward to seeing you on the fall run! As always,peace and respect to you all!

Just got back from fishing with granddaughter. No fish but we had a blast. We were in Flagstaff, Az. where it about 25* cooler. Road the bike today 104* its still like a blow torch. Really enjoyed the meeting in Sturges, I keep thinking about all the brothers I got to visit with, and learn about the club.
I can't wait till next year. I feel like I'm home now.
