June is almost over and July is coming up fast. The weather has been nice, so we took a ride to
the Dragon & Blue Ridge. We missed all of you. We enjoyed the scenery. We have many
pictures. W e will try to make a CD for all to see them on a computer . We also took a ride and got
back our teddy bear. Our teddy bear has ridden more than we have this year. We have a photo
album of all his adventures .
In July we are going to Wing Ding on Friday, July 6. We are meeting at the 76th Street and
US-131 Mobil Gas Station. Please read the newsletter and it will tell you what rides we have
scheduled for the month. July looks to be a good month to ride. We will have a ride also for
those who are not going to Wing Ding.
I do hope to see everybody at July 15 gathering!!! We are supposed to park in the front of
Cheshire Grill. He wants to take a picture of our bikes. Since they ride Harleys. they want to take a
picture of all the different bikes that we ride. That is my article for this month.
Your CD Ezra
Well, there we are. We just finished Deal’s Gap (THe Tail of the Dragon)!!! This was the greatest
trip!!! We went through 10 states in one week, had a downpour on the Blue Ridge Parkway, saw
deer, someone we talked with saw a bear with cubs, and lots of breath taking mountain views.
God must have been with us, because, when the rain poured on us, and drivers could hardly see,
we found shelter with bathrooms and a drinking fountain!!! But the rain did go through our rain
gear!!! We were soaked clear through!!! The other buildings were closed except for this one. At
one point, a full size deer ran between Howard’s and our bike!!! Having a camera always at the
ready, all I could think about was, “get a photo, get a photo”!!! Well, I caught it going into the
woods!!! Then I worried about crashing. Thank God that we didn’t hit it!!! Marcia tells more of the
story in her article.
!!!! Breaking News !!!!
We have some great news: We have new members: Bob and Jane Unger have joined GWRRA
Chapter MI-G!!!
Please give them a huge welcome to our MI-G Family!!!! Steve and Sue Ayers, and Jack and
Peggy Kline are planning to join our Family as well. And, Dennis Arms came to our house to talk
about joining GWRRA MI-G. Hopefully, more will join our Family of Friends and enjoy the thing we
like most RIDING!!!

TOPIC: Trip Planning? Plan the Gear, too!
So what have you been thinking about this winter? Have you been thinking about the gray skies, the rain, sleet or snow
of the season? And how about the freezing temperatures? These are not very cheerful thoughts for those of us who are
not winter sports enthusiasts. Some riders brighten their outlook at this time of year by planning for the coming riding
season. A few of us are deciding which motorcycling events to attend this spring and summer. Will it be the Americade
rally in upstate New York? Maybe this year you are planning to attend Wing Ding? How about a vacation trip to an
area with great roads to ride or interesting geological attractions to see? Whatever your destination, planning the route
to take is an important part of trip planning. However, don’t overlook the need to plan the gear you will need to take
with you on each of your trips. Having the proper gear for the ride is an essential element of a successful trip.
So why not start with your most important safety gear? Inspect your helmet for wear and tear. How long has it been
since you bought your helmet? Does the outer shell have chips or cracks? Has it sustained an impact while you were
wearing it? Has it been repeatedly dropped from your motorcycle seat? Realize that helmets are only designed to
survive one impact while being worn. Also look at the chin strap. Is it frayed from many years of wear? These signs of
damage indicate that it may be time to replace your helmet. Experts advise changing your helmet every 3 to 5 years for
maximum protection. Time, wear and ultraviolet rays will cause your helmet’s materials to degrade resulting in
reduced protection. (www.snellfoundation.org.)
Are you planning a southern tour this summer? Have you thought to check the weather for the area you plan to visit?
Be sure you know what the average high and low temperatures are for the month of your visit. If you expect to
encounter hot weather, this may be the time for you to start shopping for a mesh jacket if you don’t already own one.
These jackets give you the best abrasion protection (if needed) along with maximum ventilation. Good ventilation
reduces your discomfort in hot weather and can help prevent heat exhaustion. Even though they have long sleeves,
when you wear a mesh jacket the air flows around you almost as if you are wearing nothing. And the synthetic
materials provide excellent abrasion resistance. With elbow, shoulder and back pads included, you get great protection
for your ‘corners’ and your back in case you go down.
Wise riders always wear long pants while riding. Most riders wear denim jeans. This is probably because they are
already part of everyone’s wardrobe to begin with, and they are comfortable when you are not on the bike. They do
provide some resistance to abrasion, but not anywhere near the protection of leather or the synthetic gear. Did you
know there are also riding pants made from breathable mesh materials, too? They bring all the benefits of being
designed specifically for motorcycling with extra protection at the knees, hips, and legs in case of a spill at speed. The
mesh material can also help keep you from getting uncomfortably hot. And there are gloves manufactured with the
same mesh materials to protect your hands as well. They provide you with a good grip on the controls while keeping
your hands fully covered for maximum protection. They are durable and worth checking out for your comfort and
protection.
Can you rely on your current rain gear? Does your rain gear have leaky seams or rips? Do you need to put a new
jacket or rain pants on the shopping list? Having good, comfortable gear that fits you properly for all riding conditions
will allow you to fix your attention on the ride and not on your physical discomforts. This will also help ensure that
you will have a great trip. And knowing that you and your co-rider have the protection you may need will give you
peace of mind every time you saddle up. Now, which route do we want to take?

BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY RIDE
On May 26, we met at Arnies on 54th St and US131 at 6:30 AM. Arnies is closed on Sat. until 8:30 AM. Surprise! We
started our SOUTHERN trip by going NORTH to Mr. Burger on 44th St. for breakfast. It is trying to rain already. After
breakfast we got on US 131 headed south in light rain which cleared by K’zoo. Our first “G” turn is in Indiana as we
headed for Ft. Wayne. South of Ft. Wayne on US 27 we hit a detour several miles long and therefore we missed one
of the signs and had our second “G” turn. Progress has seemed slow, but we are well down into Indiana. Finally we
skirt Cincinnati and come to US75. Our ride today ends at Lexington, Kentucky at a Knights Inn. Hurrah! There is a
Waffle House next door and a Shell station.
Sunday, May 27, we start out about 9:00 and stopped for lunch north of Knoxville. Howard asked the waitress in
Wendy’s “What town is this?” She said “Pall” He didn’t understand and asked again. Later we asked him “What did she
say?” Howard replied “Darned if I know. I didn’t want to ask again.” It turned out that it was Powell, Tn. After lunch, we
bypassed around Knoxville and picked up US129, headed for Marysville and “THE DRAGON’.
We stopped at the 129 Pit Stop and bought our souvenirs before we rode the Dragon! We had to wait for about one
half an hour there, because the people at the Pit Stop said there was an accident on the Dragon with an ambulance
and a tow truck coming down. Sure enough, shortly after we got on the road, we met a tow truck with a motorcycle in a
sling--looks like a crotch rocket.
We stop at a turn out and talk with other bikers. The traffic is pretty heavy but is all tourists, since it is Memorial Day
week end--no truckers. We also stopped at the crossroad at Deal’s Gap, but it is so crowded we can’t get into the
parking lot! We continue on the Cherohala Highway 28 toward Bryson City. This is almost a curvey as the Dragon.
When we arrive at US74 and find Alarka Rd. to Hidden View Cabins, we are truly hot and tired. The cabins are in the
mountains, five more miles of curvey, rough road, but beautiful scenery. Finally, up a steep driveway to the gate. We
dig out the paper with the code to open the gate and ride up hill to the turnoff for the cabins. WHOA!!! Steep downhill
grade with gravel--pavement ends! Ezra walked down and said the cabins are nice and open for us. We have no food,
so decide to go to town for supper and to rejuvenate. After a difficult turn around on the narrow hilly driveway we head
back toward town.
On the way to Bryson City we lag behind and when we get to US74 and Alarka Rd. we don’t know which way Howard
and Ez and Mar went. That is when we found out that CB’s and cell phones don’t work well in the mountains. So, we
hopped on 74 and actually got to Bryson City before our friends. We went to a Shell station for gas and they contacted
us by cell phone a few minutes later.
Ezra contacted the manager of the cabins and he promised to meet us later at the cabins and truck our luggage down
the hill. Also, he recommended a restaurant which we found after some confusion and another “G” turn involving a
stretch on the highway. We had a nice steak supper. Back at the cabins, there was no manager on the site, so Howard
and Harry and I rode out bikes down the gravel--only skidded once each. By the time we are unloading the truck came.
It is twilight now and the hot tub was really relaxing.
The next morning I walked up with Mar and Ez, while Howard and Harry brought their bikes up. They said it was easier
coming up than going down. Today, we went to Cherokee and Maggie Valley. We visited the “Wheels Through Time”
Museum. The guys really liked that. We bought some souvenirs and rode a piece of the Blue Ridge back to Cherokee
where we had lunch and shopped some more.
Before going back to the cabins, we bought supper and breakfast groceries. This time we spent about one half hour
jockeying the bikes around to get parked at the top of the gravel drive without blocking the driveway for others, who we
never saw! In the morning we hauled all of our luggage up by hand. I think Ezra made three or four trips! We are in
high spirits as we begin our day. We stopped at a Honda Dealer to try to fix the audio on Marilynn’s helmet --no help
there. And it magically works again anyway, for only a short time. We got on the Blue Ridge and begin our exciting day.
Lunch is north of Ashville, NC. And rain from the hurricane is threatened. We drove into the clouds which give the
Smokies their name a few times. It was beautiful! We had stopped to put on rain gear before the first downpour came.
It was so heavy that we could not see and there was no place to pull over. I took off my glasses and leaned out to
watch the edge of the road. I pushed on Harry’s elbows to help stay on the road as he could not see any thing ahead.
You can do that on a trike. It cleared a little once and we saw Bostics ahead and their Wing was making a wake!
We finally got to an overlook and commiserated with other travelers. It cleared as quick as it came, but every one is
soaked through the rain suits. Our fluffy sheep skin seat squished! A very interesting sensation, when the cold rain
reached the seat and your nether regions!

BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY RIDE continued
Just outside of Boone, NC. We came upon another storm with no vision. Fortunately, we were close to an Art, Craft,
and Museum Place. It was closed but there was a porch, an open bathroom, and water fountain. Marilynn and I were
so wet that we had trouble getting our clothes off in the bathroom. Then we could hardly get them back on! Now my
boots are squishing! The rain is still dumping down and running down the mountain in rivers.. Two hikers came in and
they were soaked too. They had a smart phone and could bring up the weather radar. There was a gap in the storm
headed our way and they gave us directions to Boone. As soon as the storm let up, we got back on the wet bikes and
went to town. We did drive back into the storm but the Holliday Inn took our money even though we were drowned
rats! There was a washer and dryer and a Peddlers Steak House across the street. We had a nice libation with supper,
as we were off the road for the day. We had some competition for the washer and dryer when some more motorcycles
came in. They had been to Rolling Thunder in Washington and were on their way home to Florida. On Wed. the day
was glorious and the views beautiful, even when the deer tried to hitch a ride on Bostic’s bike! But that is their story.
We got to Bedford, Va. that day and ordered Chinese for supper at our motel.
On Thurs., we had lunch at Fancy Gap, Va. and got to the Shenandoah Skyway Drive by early afternoon. Now we are
in gentle curves and rolling hills, although we can see the mountains across the valley. Shenandoah is beautiful like
the song. The pavement is smooth and we leave the skyway and go towards Hagerstown Md. by late afternoon. Then
we headed back on US68 toward home. We know there will be more rain tomorrow and want to get as far back west
as possible. We stop at Hancock Md., at a Super 8 and have supper at a local restaurant called Weavers, very good.
No one was thrilled with this motel so we started out early in the AM to get as far as possible before the rain. We had a
brunch in Morgantown, W Va. and tried to push on. US 79 is clogged with an accident and we tried to take 19 as a
detour. It was closed because of bridge construction. This “G” turn we feel is not our fault and we get back on 79. The
wreck was quite spectacular when we passed it. Most of the front of one truck was destroyed.
Finally, the rain came but we made it to Washington, Pa. and a Comfort Inn with an Italian restaurant across the street.
Harry took a nap (Smart Man) and when the rain cleared, the rest of us walked down a steep hill about one half mile
and found “Steeler Heaven” at the mall. I had leg cramps and shin splints for two days after walking back up the hill.
This is where the rock hopped into Bostic’s bike.
On our last day we covered three states in about one half hour. A strip of West Va. comes up between Pennsylvania
and Ohio on the map. It was so windy that our mileage was down. Someplace in Ohio, we saw a pontoon boat upside
down on the ground beside it’s empty trailer. We took US30 across Ohio, to 69 in Indiana, to 94 in Michigan. At last, we
are one US131 going toward Grand Rapids.. There is a black rain cloud to the north! Howard promised there would be
no rain. He was so positive that he bet us coffee that it would not rain before we got home. He still owes us! We got
rain between Martin and Grand Rapids.
We had a wonderful time and we are all still friends. Harry and I had to make more frequent gas stops because of a
smaller tank and less mileage with the trike but nobody complained. Once they even tried to see if they could stop
once to our twice. Some things will stay on the trip forever, (I hope!) But I will say, one of our guys looks really sexy in
shorts and motorcycle boots!
