Hello fellow NTNOA members
I hope everybody enjoyed this years rally and our Grand Marshall
Denis Manning.
Attendance was down this year, but we were still successful. The
rolling concurs was a hit, we had at least sixty participants and it
looked like everybody enjoyed the course. As this was the first year
of the event we mostly wanted to see how it would work before next
years 25th anniversary rally. Some changes will be made but for the
most part I think the organizer Dean Baker got it right. So get your
bikes ready for next year as we will have first second and third
prizes. And I would like to extend a special thanks to Phil Dansby
of Up in smoke for sponsoring this years event.
Congratulations to Laura Keating for winning our inaugural event
with her wonderful 1975 BMW R90S! By the way next year (2009) all
motorcycles manufactured in 1979 and older will be eligible.
Our next event is the Cycle World international bike show in Dallas
Nov.14, 15, 16. Many thanks to all the members who have volunteered
to man our exhibit during the show.
Our next meeting will be at RPM cycles Nov.30. It is supposed to be
at there new location but they may not be ready so keep a close eye
on the web page. For those of you that don’t have or know how to
work the internet (Ward Hogue) have your kid or grandkids check it
for you.
Last but not least this years Christmas party will be at Mercado
Juarez in Dallas Sat Dec 20. Social begins at 4:00PM DINNER AT
6:00pm, see you there.
