The Straggler Tradition

I was wondering if Jimmy & Noreen were going to draft us in their motorhome.   Yes we need to find my guy a road name for sure!  I have tons of names for him but not sure they are appropriate .  He is out in the garage now installing my new passing lights.  Nothing like waiting for the last minute to add new things to the bike but we didnt want to hear everyone tell me my light was too dim and that they cant really see me.  Plus they are my Mother's Day present.   It gives me three days to try them out before we meet up with the group.

This is our FNG ride and we're honored to be with all of the riders who represent the best of America and have served faithfully. Since Noreen and I are in the RV we hope we can be helpful to RFTW volunteers and/or any rider who needs most anything. I know they like to have FNG's do little and experience the Run, which we'll do, but we stand ready to tote food to the merchandise volunteers, hand out water or clean Skipper's scooter.

I'm guessing most folks will get to meet The Stragglers before the Run is over....Biker Tommy never met a stranger and if he doesn't engage you in a chat somewhere along the line it's because you are not on the Run.

Looking forward to checking in on America with a band of brothers and sisters.

See ya at the Shriner Hall- don't be late!
