The May 14th meeting and ride has been moved from Chuck's place on the North shore to MOM's South. Chuck
has not been given the ok to get back on his bike, so we are postponing his annual ice breaker until he
is able to join us.
MOM' will be having their spring open house that weekend—they say it is going to be a "big one."
Rumor has it that Lloyd will be there for dyno tuning.

Some of Keith Lindgren's best memories with his children were made on long road trips with them straddling the back
of his motorcycle...
But local police say it isn't safe for small children to ride and have proposed a change in state law that would ban it.

As we all know, Chuck Miller underwent open heart surgery a few weeks ago. We have heard--through the grapevine--that
Chuck is well on his way to a full recovery. While he will not be riding his bike at Daytona this year, he has been given
clearance by his doctors to head down to Florida for some well-deserved R and R.
Keep healing Chuck, we can’t wait to ride with your again in the spring!

Last Tuesday our fearless winter rider Fred Leach, posted this to his Facebook page.
"Got stuck riding home in blinding snow last night from Providence to Mansfield! Not fun!!!"
Fred went on to explain that he was riding in white-out conditions and even had to pass a snowplow. He said the driver just
shook his head. After the fact we can get a chuckle out of Fred's little adventure, we are just glad he made it home
safe and sound!

My girl and and I, went out tonight
Felt the cold wind in my hair, what a chilly night
Pacing at 35, just cruisin along
She's deep in my heart, feelin her song
As she sings to me, with her sweet soft voice
To fall deeply in love, I had no choice
Her beauty is awesome, The shapes of her curves
She always makes me smile, She never gets on my nerves
We both got thirsty, We pulled in for a drink
She's the love of my life, the missing link
After we had our fill, And we thirst no more
We got warmed up, And went out thru the in door
As we headed south, down to Alabama
It was just ME AMD MY GIRL, My victory hammer.
