April 2006 GWTA
Well it is here finally spring has arrived and if you are like me you have had the chance to go out on a few trips on the scooter. Are you ready for the riding season? Do you have your ride in tip-top shape. Have you practiced your riding skills? It has been along winter and I know how easy it is to be so anxious to ride that I some times don’t take the time to mentally prepare my self or the bike for that all important first ride.
We have a lot of rides coming up this year with the first being this Memorial weekend ride for the Grand Tour. We then have Region C Rally in Onawa, IA. June 8-10 and then Gold Rush in Hot Springs, AR. in July, Not to mention all of the Fun Runs dinner rides and camping weekends we have planned for this year. So get your motorcycle ready and practice your riding skills and let’s go ride.
We have decided not to host a fund raising campout this year, instead we plan to camp at as many of the other chapter fun runs as we can and invite all of our friends to join us. See you this coming year on the road.
