Hey Mike, how do you FIND quotes like that?   Do you have to remember them and which thread they were in???  [smiley=nixweiss.gif] or is there a easier way?  Guess we'll lose all this in the change over to the new software, huh?  [smiley=nixweiss.gif] Oh well, it'll be like a 'fresh start'   [smiley=cherry.gif] Har!  [smiley=drink.gif]  spyder

I was wondering the same thing. How do you find a quote from six months ago? I can't find a post I made last week.

Hey Mike, how do you FIND quotes like that?

This one I remembered well--that it was here somewhere, anyway.  Not many stick in my memory like the "Jedi Master of Sarcasm" bit.  

I just used the "search" utility to actually find it.

There you go lettin' out those "trade secrets" again.  Sure is amazing what the engine pulls from a couple of words.[smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

You mean like this?:


 

Exactly, and then some!

Just became a National member again, free with the new bike and not sure I'm really a Nat'l member being over here in Europe with the UK handling my membrship.  Was a Nat'l in the late 80's and triied the locals in both Tucson and Vegas in early 90's and did get some of the impressions Spiderman "shared" with us along with too much "club business" that wasn't conducted from the saddle.  Meeting to plan rides, meeting to plan meetings to plan rides, meeting to discuss rides you planned that went bad or were cancelled due to scheduling conflicts with meeting.  You don't need no HOG personalized chair to eat my hotdog on or have a meeting in; now at the end of the day with the bikes in for the evening one for beers is a different requirement.  I am a member of a club, one piece patch, that was founded overseas for mostly military, ex-pats, contractors & spouses and it did just what many of you said you were looking for; a organization that shared a passion and then got out and actually participated in it.  Just finished another tour in Korea, two years, and it was good friendships and great riding.  With shipping times, only had the two bikes over there for 19 months and wife and I rode 6,500 and 8,000 miles respectively.  Not near what I rode in the states, but look at a map; it's a pretty small (really an island) and has sh!tty weather in the winter (didn't stop the polar bear run though). Small clubs in local places, largest probably 18 members...but a club not a group; difference is you can be selective...generally meaning..clubs are either all a$$holeS or none, we try to be the later.  I now have friends I can call on worldwide to ride with, for help or just to exchange routes and stories.  Our ride planning meetings consisted of "Hey Roadcaptain, we want to do a two day ride this weekend somewhere we haven't been yet...we'll depart Sat at 8:00 after breakfast" ride planning meeting done.  Maybe when I get back to the states I'll try a local again; in the meantime I'm real interested in a CVO gathering in Europe!!! Count me in. -Stump

Bisounoures & Jacques,

Would be nice to put something together somewhere here in Europe, maybe fall timeframe...Octoberfest conditioning; I'm in Belgium although the little blue dot on the lacation map thinks Belarus is Belgium...Webmaster was obviously a geography major.

Agree with his comments.  I have however been more selective in going to the chapter's activities.  A very worthwhile organization; especially to people new to the area.

Membership has it's rewards        [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  [smiley=orange.gif]  [smiley=orange.gif]

Yup, I got a new one too!  must of had Belarus and Belgium reversed eh?

I have been...  member, RC, editor, Asst Director (x2), and Director(x2)...  went to POT twice...   recognized nationally for fund raising and membership growth, and then got pushed out by a hands on dealer/disruptive member clique.  (OK, not pushed, saw what was happening to the group and said, "f that!" and walked...  Sitll a life member, but no local contact here.  Just not worth the big fandango they make out of the meeting to plan a meeting to talk about a meeting that was supposed to be about a ride but was really for a meeting where so and so said such and such about so and so and then......   f that!
