The November GWRRA NC-D meeting

Well it almost always happens. It's when you combine Gold Wingers (bikers), good food, better stories, and great friends. So what do you get? A whole lot of fun, what else. Thursday night, November 3, is when it happened. Bobby Manning, with his better half Alice, as chapter directors of NC-D (the DownEast Gold Wings) do a great job. We had a pretty good turn out at the meeting with our regulars and some visitors we had not seen in a while. A little joking (with a lot of laughs), many door prizes, and 50/50 drawings make for a very enjoyable gathering. Preacher Cliff does an auction that has a especially funny spend. He auctions off precious and valuable items (the kind of collectibles that fall out of the closet) and the money raised from the auction goes to the Ronald McDonald House. Of course there is a serious side to the meetings, such as, we discuss safety issues (like deer and other animals out to get us); technical advice (like keeping your tire pressure checked - colder temperatures greatly reduces your tire pressure); and special concerns for members and friends. Chapter NC-D is an active chapter that does a lot of good things for the community and the motorcyclist while having fun.

Come on out and visit with us at the Golden Corral on the 1st Thursday of each month. Be prepared to have fun and a great meal with a friendly bunch of Wingers.

Ride safe and ride a lot,
