What Is The Oklahoma Confederation Of Clubs The Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs is an association of various Oklahoma biker clubs and organizations based in the state. Members of the Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs include motorcycle clubs, riding clubs, motorcycle ministries, motorcyclist rights organizations and other biker-related groups. The principal focus of the Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs is to inform its members of oppressive legislation impacting citizens who ride motorcycles, and to educate their members on how they should respond to that legislation. Their website, www.okcoc.net states: “The Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs promotes communica- open 7days a week 2pm - 2am 15559 Highway 66 (North of Claremore) www.facebook.com/D’s66 Ray Technical Staffing & Recruiting, Inc. Recruiting Specialists for Engineering & Manufacturing Professionals 918-665-8686 Dee Ray Ladonna Bailey www.raytechtulsa.com tion and education to and between all motorcycle enthusiasts. Our strength is a Confederation of Clubs coming together to defend our Constitutional rights and further our motorcycle lifestyle. Our mission is to defend our rights and lifestyle through education and the political process.” The US Defenders Within the Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs are committees and groups formed to carry out special tasks in the Oklahoma biker community. The US Defenders is such a group. What does the "US" in US Defenders stands for? Does it stand for the "United States" or "us" as in you and me?” It stands for both! The US Defenders is a grass roots faction of Oklahoma biker manpower intended to provide an efficient way to organize and rally a rapid response to legislative issues that are of concern to all motorcyclists. The US Defenders are also positioned to provide emergency assistance in case of flooding, tornadoes, Amber Alerts, etc. to local communities when called upon by community disaster authorities. The Strategic Alliance The Strategic Alliance consists of various Oklahoma motorcycle ministries and service-related groups coming together to form an alliance representing greater unity and communication between Oklahoma bikers. Although these groups and associations are separate in nature their goals are much the same. The purpose of the Strategic Alliance is to help identify and provide services to the Oklahoma biker community as a whole. These services include weddings, prayer support, hospital visitation, counseling, jail visits, funeral services, food ministry, sobriety support, and other support type services. The Strategic Alliance also helps promote and facilitate unity and fellowship during specially scheduled events, unity rides, conferences, etc. The Oklahoma Confederation of Clubs meets on the first Sunday of every other month at 1:00 pm. The meetings are held at different locations throughout the state.

The run itself doesn’t officially start in Pryor, but that is where I like to begin. My friends and I usually meet at Joey’s Motorcycle Shop. You can get last minute items needed for your bike or person at Joey’s. Travel from Joey’s east on Hwy 20 towards Lake Hudson and Salina. Continue east on Hwy 20 until reaching the stoplight. When you turn left you will officially be on the infamous Copperhead Run. Ride cautiously for the next fourteen miles. You are going to encounter sixty-nine curves according to Spavinaw Police Chief Butch McDonald. I can’t tell you how many curves there are because it is difficult to count when the ride is this much fun. If you love twisties – this is for you! As you come off the hill and around the horseshoe curve be sure to stop at the beautiful state park spillway – reminiscent of a large waterfall. Leaving Spavinaw you will see the park like Copperhead Run Rally site on your left. Also, now is the time to get gas at the T-Store on your right at the stop sign. You have just successfully completed the Copperhead Run Ride. There is a lot more to see in the area so spend some time riding Grand Lake. You will be glad you did! 2011 Calendar of Events RUN - Enid - (580) 541-3147 APRIL CANCER SUCKS EASTER CAR AND RENEGADE RALLY - Tulsa BIKE SHOW - Hooters of Tulsa 918.269.0113 - [email protected] www.cancersucks.com 23 - 25 21-24 SPAVINAW TRIKE & BIKE IN WILD HOG MUSIC FESTIVAL Spavinaw Helena, AR • 870.572.3408 918-253-8770 • 918-589-2651 23 SUPPORT OUR TROOPS BENEFIT POKER RUN - Broken Arrow www.babluestar.org CHISHOLM TRAIL 412 TORNADO COOKOUT FOR PUBLIC SERVANTS Pryor • ABATE Chapter 13 918.8640557 Get more event information at: www.oklahomabiker.net Specializing in Motorcycle Sales, Service & Apparel 918-227-9867 619 North Mission St. • Sapulpa, OK 74066 Located on Route 66 Hours: 10am - 6pm Tuesday-Saturday cre ycycles.us t n ou c ek See more lifestyle pictures on our website w w w . o k l a h o m a b i k e r. n e t BIKE WEEK OKLAHOMA Bike Week Oklahoma is going to be here before we (580) 541-3147 know it....

The first Ten Minutes of that Golden Hour is most crucial. Remember to think and stay calm. Knowing what not to do is just as important as knowing what to do. Focus on the important stuff first. Soft tissue injuries are not necessarily the most serious injury. Assume every motorcycle accident victim is critical! Remain Calm.... anyone to move them. Remember to turn off the fuel on older bikes. Try to determine how many people were on the motorcycle before the crash. There may be another person who needs your help. 2. MEDICAL - always assume there is an injury to the head/ neck/back. Don’t move the victim - if the head is tilted, do not try to straighten it. When starting your assessment Do not move the victim unless use the tool U-ABCC: there’s immediate and unavoidUnconscious - Introduce yourable danger. Call 911 as soon as self.

If you have established that the victim is going into shock, the EMT will load and go rather than doing an on-site assessment. You’ve just saved valuable time in the Golden Hour. This can be the difference between death and survival. 2. Let the EMTs know who is in charge. 3. Give factual account of the accident. 4. Give them the timeline of events that you have written down.

Pack riding involves placing your trust in the other bikers in the pack. One wrong move by any biker in the pack can take out the entire group. Many of you have probably been on poker runs or at biker events where you ride with a bunch of bikers you do not know. Although it’s fun to ride with a pack of other riders, you must presume the other bikers are inexperienced riders. I have myself witnessed bikes crashing into the back of other bikes during group rides. I also have witnessed riders swerve into other bikes causing severe accidents. When I am riding with a pack of strangers I prefer to stay in the back at a safe distance. I was once riding with a couple when it began to rain. They were on the inside lane and turned unexpectedly in front of me into a parking lot without signaling. The pavement was damp and slick. In horror I quickly twisted my throttle and jumped the curb trying to get in front of them. My passenger’s boot clipped their saddlebags just as we veered around a set of gas pumps. Had I not been paying close attention, and had hit the brakes instead of the throttle, we would surely have had a disastrous crash. There are three types of pack formations: (1) Side-by-side (you better know who you are riding with to do this); (2) Staggered; (3) Freefor-all. I propose that all group rides be done in the staggered configuration because it is the safest formation for pack riding. A staggered formation is where one person is on the left part of the lane, then the person behind him is riding about 1-2 seconds behind on the right part of the lane, then the person behind him is riding 1-2 seconds behind him on the left part of the lane and so on. See the diagram for example. The staggered formation should only be performed when it is safe. If your pack gets onto an undersized country road or on twisties, the pack should switch to a single file formation. Single file is when everyone rides behind the other at a safe distance. I believe the two safest places to ride in a pack ride is in the back or in the front. They both have disadvantages but the disadvantages are significantly outweighed by the dangers of being in the middle of the pack. If you are leading the pack you will be able to see the road hazards better than anyone else allowing you to better avoid them. However, if you have to brake hard, there is a very good chance that the riders behind you will rear end you. I have lead many pack rides. There is nothing scarier than the sound of tires screeching behind you when you slow down or stop! Riding in the back allows you to keep a safe distance from the rest of the pack. If there is an accident you should be able to stop in time before you hit your fellow riders. The bad part about being in the back is that you cannot see the road conditions in the front of you. If the pack is doing proper hand signals, they should be pointing to rocks and other debris on the road before you get to it. Another disadvantage to being in the back is that if you are not keeping a safe distance, and a rider goes down in front of you, you may not have enough time to avoid the rider. Riding in a pack is one of the most exhilarating things you can do as a biker. It is also one of the most deadly rides you can ever experience. Go out and enjoy yourself, but exercise caution at all times! I am not going to go into an explanation on biker hand signals for riding in a pack. Instead I have included this chart of the recognized hand signals used by bikers in a pack. When you ride in a group make sure you use these hand signals at all times. bikers helping bikers OZARK MOONSHINE RUN The Ozark Moonshine Run is one of the most scenic motorcycle rides in the Ozarks. This ride is 110 miles long with 662 curves. The route includes parts of Hwy 7 and winds through the deepest parts of the Ozarks. Take your time and enjoy the scenery. Along the route expect to see dazzling views, prehistoric bluffs, and a myriad of wildlife. Be careful of the many twisties. They can be very tricky and dangerous. I believe you will find this to be one of the best rides in the United States. Don’t miss it!
