The Margarita Machine was working at capacity. On behalf of the chapter I would like to thank Jamie and Glenda for hosting. The mall show was a great success. A big thanks goes out to everyone who participated. A special thank you goes out to Paul Haller who organized the event. I even heard that a member went the extra mile by going table to table at the food court selling tickets. In the end 312 tickets were sold and $557.00 was raised. Great job, well done everyone, especially Barb who went above and beyond the call of duty. So far, between the Home Hardware BBQs and Mall ticket sales, $ 1250.00 has been raised. More tickets need to be sold to achieve our target of $2000.00 raised in past years. I will be stepping down at the end of this year as your Chapter Director. Dave and Barb Pattison will become your new Chapter Directors. They will be seeking a new Assistant Chapter Director and Chapter Educator. Anyone interested in stepping into these positions can talk to either Dave or myself. These are volunteer positions as are all the other positions on the Chapter Executive. Without those who volunteer for these positions we would not have a Chapter. Don W Wing Ding 35 July 3rd - July 6th, 2013. 1 TD Convention Center Exposition Drive Greenville, SC 29607 GPS: 34.852042, -82.354571 Friends For Fun, Safety & Knowledge SOCIAL REPORT: SHARON CRAVEN On a sad note we have lost another GWRRA member, Ginger Zehr from Chapter E Kitchener who passed away on Oct. 24th. We send our condolences to her family and Chapter E. I’d like to thank Jamie and Glenda for hosting the Halloween Party on Saturday night. Jamie and Glenda were the perfect hosts as always and many complements were shared at the Gathering. Mother Superiority and the Monsignor Haller took home first prize. I’m speechless and will say no more. Paul Haller set up the Mall Show again this year and with the help from our members who came out to work the mall show we sold quite a few tickets. So far we have made just over $1,200.0. I’m going to change the next dinner night to a MONDAY night Nov. 12th. We are going to go Linguine’s @ 257 North Front St. in Belleville. They are offering a 3 course dinner for $19.95, your choice of Soup of the day or Italian salad, a choice of one of 18 pastas and homemade Tiramisu for Dessert. You can also order off the menu. I’ve had their pepper steak and it’s awesome. So if you haven’t signed up and want to Join us I’ll be sending out a reminder about a week in advance and let me know. The Cookie exchange is being held after our gathering in November on SUNDAY AFTERNOON Nov. 25th @ 2:00pm at Barb and Dave Pattison’s. Their new address is 115 Gavey St. in Belleville. If you go north on Hwy 62 and continue past Lowe’s then turn left onto Maitland Dr., continuing to Cox Dr., (the first street turning left), and follow it to the ‘T’ intersection. Turn left onto Gavey St. It winds around until you come to a dead end. Barb and Dave are on your left and you can see Lowe’s back yard. If you are participating you need to bring along 11 dozen cookies, squares, tarts, or 11 loaves of bread. Barb is extending an invitation for those not wishing to take part in the exchange but would still like to come. Bring your beverage of choice and a snack. I think this will be a fun afternoon and I hope to see all of you there. Our Christmas Party on Friday, Dec. 07th is fast approaching. Once again we will be at the #413 Wing in Trenton. Cocktails @ 6:00pm Dinner @ 7:00pm. Dave has tickets at $25.0 per person which covers the cost of the hall, the band, and the buffet dinner. This is a cash bar but the drinks are really reasonable. I have been working on ornaments for every person who attends again this year, so make sure you visit the ornament tree before you pick a table. We are asking our members to bring some wrapped gifts for spot dances and door prizes. I’d really like to thank Dave for putting this wonderful evening together again this year. If you November, 2012 wish to bring friends or family please do so as all are welcome. Our Bar B Q draw is being held Saturday Dec. 08 th at the Home Hardware in Picton. Try to come out and support the chapter and the Picton Home Hardware. Food for Learning is the recipient of the very much needed cash we donate and with the donation of the Bar B Q we dedicate all ticket proceeds to them. If you have not purchased tickets yet please see Dave Pattison. On Wednesday Dec. 12th we will be going out to dinner at 5:30 at Thai House Cuisine, 230 Front St. Belleville, and then attending the Empire Theatre for the Peter Potter Mayan Calendar of Doom. This should be a great evening. The tickets are at the Theatre and we will pick them up when we arrive. I booked row K the entire middle row of seats we had last year and 3 seats of Row J. So we have excellent seating and a night full of fun. Anyone wishing to go out for dinner with us and are not going to the theatre are welcome to join us. I will be sending out a sign-up sheet at the next Breakfast gathering in November. Chapter K is again inviting our chapter to come out and join them for their Christmas party on Saturday Dec. 15 th @ the South Fredericksburg Community Hall @ 7:00pm. Tickets for Dinner & Dance are $15.0 each or just the dance $10.0 each. See Terry Brinklow for tickets. On Wednesday January 9th your executive will be meeting to set up the Social Events Schedule for 2013. I have sent around Survey Sheets for all of you to participate in.

November, 2012 Friends For Fun, Safety & Knowledge 3 Rider Education: As announced in the August Newsletter, Harold has resigned as Chapter Educator. We are hoping that someone will step forward to accept this very important position. In the meantime, I’ll try to find relevant articles to place here. Terry Archbold. It’s All About the Traction We’ll shortly be turning the calendar to December and, suddenly, winter is here! The signs of winter are everywhere: the cold temperatures, snow flurries, freezing rain, and ice on puddles. In winter we see the most driving problems, (accidents and spin outs), when conditions include freezing rain and black ice. It does not matter that we are driving our four-wheeled vehicles. When the road surface is icy, traction is greatly reduced. So when there is ice on the road, the best thing to do is stay home. If you have to drive in icy conditions, go slowly and smoothly. No, check that. Go VERY slowly, and VERY smoothly! As we know from our motorcycle training, when we lose traction, we lose braking and steering control of our vehicle. The same applies to a car. Even with four tires on the ground, it is easy to lose control of a vehicle on ice. To increase traction in icy conditions, look for surfaces with more texture. This can be the unpaved shoulder of the road where gravel can provide more resistance to sliding and skidding tires. Crusty snow gives more traction, too. This can sometimes be present in the center of the lane (the middle track) where tires seldom crush and pack it down. Almost any surface provides better traction than ice! If you have the choice to drive on ice or another surface, try to move your vehicle smoothly onto the other surface. Keep in mind that accelerating, braking and steering inputs should all be made smoothly to maintain traction and control of your vehicle. Use a light touch on the accelerator. You will not be able to accelerate rapidly on ice anyway, so just plan to keep speeds down. With the limited traction available on ice, stepping on the gas will just cause tire spin. Give yourself plenty of time slow down before entering curves, and maintain a steady speed through the turn. Increase your following distance behind other cars to allow more time to stop. You will need it when ice on the ground limits your traction. The additional space will also give you a cushion if the vehicle in front of you loses control and goes into a spin. That space can give you room to manoeuvre and time to react so you can avoid a collision. Consider using your emergency flashers for added conspicuity and to warn others of the problem. They might not be as aware of the conditions as you are. As always, it is important to scan aggressively all around you for hazards and other drivers who might lose control. Think constantly about your best escape route or your reaction to various situations that might arise. Keep alert to your safest options. Learn how your vehicle handles on ice in an empty icy parking lot. It is important to see and feel how it reacts when you are travelling at low speed and step on the brake or turn the wheel. It will be different than driving on dry pavement. By learning how it behaves, you are better prepared to take the right action in a surprise situation on the road. Just like a motorcycle training class, you want to practice in a safe space. And remember, it’s all about the traction! Ride Smart & Be Safe! Bruce & Melissa Thayer A blond man shouts frantically into the phone "My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart!" "Is this her first child?" asks the Doctor. "No!" he shouts, "this is her husband!" November, 2012 An Italian tourist asks a blonde man: "Why do Scuba divers always fall backwards off their boats?" To which the blonde man replies: "If they fell forward, they'd still be in the boat." Friends For Fun, Safety & Knowledge 4 SUNSHINE PAGE: JUDY ARCHBOLD Sunshine; what’s that??? The rain just keeps on coming and as I write this, we’ve just finished battening down the hatches for the “FRANKENSTORM”. I hope that everyone is ready and comes thru with no serious problems. It’s a good day to hunker down with a good book or movie. All of our members appear to be healthy if not wealthy & wise! Barb Pattison is repaired, Les McGeachy is hardy enough for his hunting trips, and Al Randall is recuperating from some minor surgery which left him with a black eye, (at least that’s his story & he’s sticking to it!). Our thanks go out once again to Jamie & Glenda Scott for stepping up and hosting our Hallowéen Party. Thank you for opening your beautiful home to the bunch of crazies who invaded. But just a word from your Sunshine Person; When our members offer their homes, time, and efforts to host various activities, the least we can do is to try to attend. I realize that everyone has a life and family outside of GWRRA, but these activities are planned well in advance so please try to make it out. With a little effort on all our parts we can make our Chapter a very successful one both biking and socially. Off my soapbox now. Take care everyone. Here is a simple appetizer or treat for those visiting grandchildren. .

November, 2012 Friends For Fun, Safety & Knowledge 5 Wingin’ It by Bob Hagerman The morning temperature is climbing quickly as we head up the hill south of Front Royal Virginia onto the Blue Ridge Parkway. We pay our five bucks at the toll booth and the guy in the smokey bear hat says we can use the parkway anytime for a whole week. The speed limit is 35 and that's great; lots of time to look at the scenery and anyway, that's fast enough for a road like that. They have improved it a lot since we were last on the parkway. It’s wider now in most places, but there is still a place where you can see three thousand feet down on both sides of the road at the same time. A cluster of bones by the roadside reminds me to check my deer whistles at the next rest stop. By the time we reach the three thousand foot level the temperature has dropped to a nice 72 degrees. Its 96 on the valley floor. Sometimes I wish Doris could drive so I could take more time to look at the tiny roads and houses which make up the Virginia countryside far below. As I lean through a left turn I catch a three-second glimpse of a large snake sunning itself on the pavement. It’s about four feet long and the size of my arm and has a grey diamond pattern on its back. As my hand closes on the brake lever Doris yells in my ear "We are NOT going back!!" I resume speed. A few miles further on we come to a restaurant with a tourist information booth manned by a couple of park rangers. One is about thirty and the other is maybe sixty-three. I go in and ask "What kind of snake has big diamonds on its back?", just to be sure of what I had seen. "That there war a diamond back rattler" says the older ranger. "y'all watch out fer them cause they always travel in pairs". Just as well I hadn't stopped. The two of them get into a lively discussion about rattlesnakes. The young man says “how long do them dang things live, anyhow?" "They live till somebody kills 'em." says the old-timer. Ah can say this now cause ah'm gonna retire this fall; y'all remember that chevy wagon ah had a few years back?" The young man nods. "Ah was comin to work one mornin when ah saw two of em sunnin themselves on the road. Ah just locked up all four wheels and skidded over em. Then ah opened the door and put my feet on the ground when ah hear em strikin' at the bottom of the car. Ah pull my feet back in real quick and back up. They wasn't even daid. Musta drove over em six times fore I got em." He goes on to explain how to kill a rattlesnake by rapping it behind the head with a small stick. I thank them for their information, and as I leave they are still deeply engaged in the subject of rattlesnakes. Henceforth I shall be a little more cautious while off the bike in those parts, or when emerging from our tent. After a leisurely lunch we fire up the Wing and head south past Big Meadows, watching a distant thunderstorm far away down the Shenandoah Valley.

You remove your false teeth to change your appearance. 8. You ask for soft high fibre candy only. 7. When someone drops a candy bar in your bag, you lose your balance and fall over. 6. People say...'Great Boris Karloff Mask,'...And you're not wearing a mask. 5. When the door opens you yell, 'Trick or...' And you can't remember the rest. 4. By the end of the night, you have a bag full of restraining orders. 3. You have to carefully choose a costume that doesn't dislodge your hairpiece. 2. You're the only Power Ranger in the neighbourhood with a walker. And the number one reason Seniors should not go Trick Or Treating... * * * 1. You have to keep going home to pee. Answer: In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word.

A REQUEST FROM OUR BREAKFAST GATHERING HOST Management of the Northway requests that when attending our Breakfast Gatherings, we park in the rear lot. It seems that when the front lot is full, business drops off a bit as people seems to think the restaurant is full and we’re there considerably longer than their average diner. They treat us very well at the Northway, so lets help out by parking in the rear lot.
