October is here once again…the leaves are starting their color show & the nights get a little cooler & longer. One of the most important aspects of it being October, as far as we’re concerned, is that it’s Biker Appreciation Month. Back in 2007, I got to thinking about how each month of the year is dedicated to the awareness or appreciation of a just about every topic under the sun. I’m serious…look up Chase’s Calendar of Events on the internet. There is “Spunky Old Broads Month” in February, “Cell Phone Courtesy Month” in July <-(this should be every month!), & Peanut Butter Lovers Month in November, just to name a few…the lists goes on & on. Of course all the national big names are there too. This is suppose to be the most complete listing in the world of special days & months. We’re working on getting October as Biker Appreciation Month added to their list. Ok, back to 2007... Since motorcycle riders do so many things to help others & participate in charity & fundraising events all through the year, we thought it would be very appropriate to start a “Biker Appreciation Month” & we chose October to do it in. We started encouraging our advertisers, other businesses & the general public to say “THANKS” to motorcycle riders for all that they do throughout the year. We made a collage that year for our front cover, of motorcyclists at events. Bound & determined to keep this tradition going, this is the 5th year commemorating the big hearts of the motorcycle community on our front covers with new pictures featured each year. Some of our advertisers & biker friendly businesses help to sponsor the cover & each have written a special message inside just for you. Some businesses now offer special discounts or giveaways during October to show their appreciation.

I was first introduced to the generosity of bikers, when I was a young girl, because a couple of my older brothers rode bikes. Even though I was riding on the back, it was a great feeling just being a part of a get together that would help someone that was in need. As I got older, I continued to ride on the back of bikes with my friends going to charity functions & enjoying all the fun & good people who always seemed to be at each one. It wasn’t until I had gotten my first bike & was actually “riding my own” as a fellow rider rolling into a fundraising event, that I realized that helping others is a true driving force for motorcyclists. Sometimes I think that motorcycle folks just can’t help themselves when someone is in need. It’s almost like it becomes 2nd nature to immediately come to the aid of just about anyone, at any time, for just about anything. It truly amazes me how quickly a run can be put together to help someone in an emergency or for a fellow rider who went down…help is always there in a blink of an eye. I’ve never in my life seen a more compassionate, generous & big hearted group of folks than the motorcycle community. This is exactly why our October issue will always be dedicated to you, our readers & advertisers out there that ride to help others. October is YOUR month! Many THANKS for all you do….this one’s for YOU!

May Peace, Love & Happiness fill all your days. Stay safe & we’ll see you next month!

AN AMERICANProud To Be

An Unforgettable Flight (By Beverly Brass (as told by Denny Kukich)

I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. This is going to be a long flight. ‘I’m glad I have a good book to read and perhaps I will get a short nap. I fly frequently; I always look for an opportunity to share Jesus with someone. I wondered who it could be because there were empty seats all around me. Not much of a chance to talk to anyone. Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and took the seats across the aisle and in front of me. More came. Still more…then finally, 10 soldiers filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. This is more like it! Ok Lord, which one will it be? Who needs to hear about you? I decided to start a conversation. ‘Where are you headed?’ I asked the soldier seated nearest to me. ‘Petawawa. We’ll be there for two weeks for special training, and then we’re being deployed to Afghanistan. After flying for about an hour, an announcement was made that sack lunches were available for five dollars. It would be several hours before we reached the east, and I quickly decided a lunch would help pass the time... As I reached for my wallet, I overheard a soldier ask his buddy if he planned to buy lunch. ‘No, that seems like a lot of money for just a sack lunch. Probably wouldn’t be worth five bucks. I’ll wait till we get to base.’ His friend agreed. I looked around at the other soldiers. None were buying lunch. I walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant a fifty dollar bill. ‘Take a lunch to all those soldiers.’ She grabbed my arms and squeezed tightly. Her eyes wet with tears, she thanked me. ‘My son was a soldier in Iraq ; it’s almost like you are doing it for him.’ Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, ‘Which do you like best - beef or chicken?’ ‘Chicken,’ I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to the front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from first class. ‘This is your thanks..’ After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. ‘I saw what you did. I want to be part of it. Here, take this.’ He handed me twenty-five dollars. Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle, looking at the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was not looking for me, but noticed he was looking at the numbers only on my side of the plane. When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, held out his hand and said, ‘I want to shake your hand.’ Quickly unfastening my seat-belt I stood and took the Captain’s hand. With a booming voice he said, ‘I was a soldier and I was a military pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I never forgot.’ I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of the passengers. Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand, wanting to shake mine. He left another twenty-five dollars in my palm. When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a word. Another twenty-five dollars! Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five dollars. ‘It will take you some time to reach the base.. It will be about time for a sand-wich. God Bless You.’ Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of their fellow travelers. As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer for their safe return. These soldiers were giving their all for our country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little... A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to ‘The United States of America ‘ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.’ That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.’

National, Marine Corps League UpperDarby Detachment #884, MODD, Vietnam Veterans ofAmerica, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States,American Legion, and Bikers Against Child Abuse.Patrick became a professional photographer, ratherthan a hobbyist, in 1982, when he left his position as aprinter compositor at the Philadelphia Bulletin. Patrick saysthat “with a lot of prayers and with my wife and children’shelp, and a new found photographer friend, Henry, I began my own photography business out of our home.”Patrick is the oldest of 7 children. Patrick says of hisphotography galleries of “We Will Never Forget” photo-graphs; they are “for all to enjoy, viewing the many people,

places and events I have been privileged to attend and take part in. God has given me the talent to tell these visual stories and for those who can not physically visit or partici-pate I have tried to make you a part of what I have been privileged to experience.”The particular picture that is featured on this year’sChristmas card was taken at The Vietnam VeteransMemorial. When asked to describe what led him to capturethis image, Patrick said, “The Christmas Tree ceremonyat the Wall is held every year. Last year it was a few daysafter the Wreaths Across America project. WAA had placedwreaths near the Wall. It had snowed a little the nightbefore. After everyone had left and before my ride home, Ihad the thought to go on the grassy area above the Wall.”Patrick said that in shooting the image he, “hoped tocapture something that says ‘It’s really Christmastime.’”He added, “ I spent two Christmases away from home, onein Vietnam. All of the individuals named on the Wall gaveup too many Christmases for us to have our freedom. Thisimage says that those named here are Not Forgotten andNever Will Be.”

Old Men Are Nicer..... An old guy was in Walmart the other day, pushing his shopping cart around, when he collided with a young guy also pushing a cart.

He said to the young guy, “Sorry about that. I’m looking for my wife and I guess I wasn’t paying attention to where I was going.” The young guy says, “That’s OK. It’s just a coincidence. I’m looking for my wife, too. I can’t find her and I’m getting a little desperate. The old guy said, “Well, maybe we can help each other. What does your wife look like?” The young guy says, “Well, she is 24 years old, tall, with long blonde hair, green eyes, long legs, big boobs and she’s wearing tight white shorts, a halter top and no bra. What does your wife look like?” The old guy said, “Doesn’t matter. Let’s look for yours.” Most old men are helpful like that....

2 Per CentersI am encouraged in the midst of the current economic state that the

entire world is immersed in. I have faith that our response to the chal-lenges of today will turn us into a stronger people. We have a lesson to learn and it is not new. Those before us that grew up during the great depression learned their lesson and by stepping up to the plate, became the “great generation.” The current generosity of Bill Gates and Warren Buffet parallels the gifts of Rockefeller and Vanderbilt that added to the solution to stimulate the economy in another day and I am sure that throughout history other examples of the fortunate being altruistic will reveal a pattern of ebb and flow. What we are now going through is a consequence of our forgetting those valuable lessons that must get relearned, over and over, by each generation.

The rise and accumulating momentum of the self centered, entitle-ment, defiant, victimization “make it go away” drug mentality, gave us our perception of this world and got us into this mess. A shift caused by warped ideas was underway. That sort of runaway thinking gradually permeated the many processes in place with banking, the insurance industry, health care, litigation and government and influenced us all. While the primary goal of creating an increasing share holder return seems to be an admirable platform for business, the pressure of encouraging that practice often negates promoting mutual benefits that result from operating from a foundation of honesty. In many examples, evident via the media, we are reminded that the element that eroded at all levels is trust. The inability to trust trickles down from the top and we are all affected. In addition to infecting the thoughts of you and me, it became increasingly easy to blame, deflect responsibility, point fingers and say “if only they…” but the truth is that we are all affected and all play a role in this current situation the world is in.

What can I do to make this a better place to live, love and conduct my business? The good citizen of today now transcends local and national interests, and includes international and global concerns. We add our positivity to the solution and encourage others with; “let me include you.” The quality to embrace is integrity. Integrity in every transaction throughout the entire business and community structure provides a sustainable paradigm that has a future. The prerequisite to promote positive change in the world is me taking responsibility and setting an example with my behavior. Let’s do an upgrade. Let me ask how can I, as I conduct the many transactions that occur throughout my year, create a bond of trust with my customers, neighbors, staffers, employees and the businesses that I am in relationship with? I must be consistent with integrity, honesty and honorable with my intentions, with the long term goal of mutual benefit for everyone uppermost in my mind. Let me ask myself; how can I say yes? Yes creates an environ-ment for productivity.

I have the ability to do something sustainable with a positive future by following Harry Truman’s example “the buck stops here” and take responsibility. As I step up my commitment to integrity, I realize I also have the power to influence change on other levels and even over-seas. I stop buying coffee that was harvested with suppressed labor, buying seafood from fishermen that destroy an unnecessary, immense amount of sea life that gets caught in the “sweep everything up” sys-tem. I buy fuel from companies that have the best interest of America in mind, never return to establishments that do not train their help to be courteous and functional, and boycott activities and personal thinking that is not healthy. As a creator and provider of artwork to motorcycle enthusiasts, I choose to only do business with event promoters that have the best interest of everyone involved as their business founda-tion and enjoy being in the proximity of others that are dedicated to their customers and the good will of all.

The Future of Bike Events?With the big three of the bike rallies having evolved from laid back,

back woods get-togethers, into an organism of commercially fueled greed where the inflated cost of participating affects everyone, gouging with the price of a sandwich and a beer, rooms at hotels, meals at restaurants and participating fees are now at the breaking point, the question now is “what future is possible?” Add to that; the municipal aggregate and the community affected are joining forces in an effort to kill the source of noise, lawlessness and good natured but warped fun. Collapse of these get-togethers is already underway. Myrtle Beach is over, Daytona is a ghost of what it once was and Sturgis, due to the costs and sheer distance away from most of us, may have arrived at the point of no return.

Unfortunately some of this old thinking is alive at some of the new events that recognize an opportunity for easy money and have popped up throughout our country. Sadly the foundation of greed can only bring about a repeat of the cycle that ends in collapse. Or in the case of our oceans, the threat of great expanses completely void of life.

As the old paradigm of self centered greed completely consumes these one time great winged behemoths, a phoenix is already ris-ing from the ashes. Win/Win thinking is taking place in the corporate boardroom, offices, between entrepreneurs, in community activities, between family members and in other venues. Many situations exist that have the best interest of everyone involved uppermost. Coop-eration from myriad participants that have the big picture is already taking place. And just like the history that repeats itself, a return to our roots provides interesting relief for the consumer tired of being burnt. Customer dedication has a future. There are venues that encourage homespun talent, wholesome entertainment, mutual value and model honorable behavior. We promote this each time we choose where, how and what we buy.

We have the ability to promote integrity, happiness and health in this world and the good news is that 2% of the population can make a difference. The new trend is collaborating, giving, altruistic, inviting, and an attracting yesness! Me to We. Responsible consumption will promote integrity in the lives of others. Liars and lawlessness will get no energy from me.

What can I do? We are all connected. I can learn from what we as a world are going through and bring more than my share to every deal. A spiritual revolution is happening in business now. The rise of the quantum organization to replace the old Newtonian model for a new economy is underway. Spiritual assets are necessary to achieve work and life desires, yet can be hidden away. Once they are discovered and understood, their power for positive change is revolutionary and unstoppable. I can buy responsibly from only businesses, corporations and professionals that promote honorable ethical practices that have the long term benefits of the entire world foremost as their model for behavior, and remain a source of enlightenment and encouragement for those that are unaware that we have a choice and that we can make a difference with every transaction that takes place today. I invite you to join a quiet movement and become one of the 2 per centers that make a difference. Relentlessly, Dave “Letterfly” Knoderer


I want to report the latest on the helmet tickets from the Virginia Beach Bike Classic. Again I will give my caveat since the issue of helmets is a divisive one in the motorcycling com-munity. I do not look at this issue as one that pits those who think motorcyclists should wear helmets against those who think adults should be able to choose for themselves. This is about charges being issued to citizens for offenses which, if challenged, the state cannot prove. Whether it is helmets, exhausts, license plate mounting or any other offense, we as motorcyclists should not be at the mercy of the opinion of the officer issuing the ticket. The statutes are what govern and we should be afforded the due process that we are guaranteed under the law.

The eighteen helmet cases from the Virginia Beach Bike classic were held today in the Virginia Beach Circuit Court. Fourteen were convicted and four were dismissed. There was no rhyme or reason for the four that were dismissed. In Eight years this is the first time that I have see an unapproved helmet conviction on the Circuit Court level. But I know why it happened.

The officer was not able to demonstrate a knowledge of any of the applicable helmet standards. In fact he made it clear that the reason that he felt that the helmets were not “real helmets” is because they were not properly labeled. I had two expert witnesses and a letter from the Chief Counsel for the Department of Transportation which explained that the labeling was for manufacturers who wish to self certify. The lack of a label is not a violation of the standard. It merely means that the helmet has not been certified. Certification in not required by the statute.

That being said, the judge made it clear that he saw a prob-lem with the statute and could not believe that it had not been amended by now. Between cases he indicated that he was entering up convictions so that we could make our argument to the Court of Appeals who could settle this issue once and for all. We have not had an opportunity to do this before but we do now.

The bottom line is that we are off to the Court of Appeals where I believe we will prevail. That would mean that the court’s decision would be binding across the state and would make clear to law enforcement that the mere lack of a DOT la-bel does not mean that the helmet does not meet the require-ments of the Code of Virginia.

I want to thank all fourteen that showed up in court, you know who you are. All who were convicted have agreed to appeal their cases. All could have pre-paid their tickets but chose to fight and to continue to do so. Each has now taken two days off from work and incurred personal costs regard-less of the fact that they incurred no legal fees. I offer each my personal thanks.

I will continue to keep you informed as the cases progress. If you have any questions or comments concerning any of the material about which I have written please feel free to contact me.

I hope this finds you well and that you had an opportunity to do some riding this weekend. I certainly did. Jim Cannon and I rode out to Detroit Michigan for the annual Meeting of the Minds (MOTM) that is put on by the Motorcycle Riders Foun-dation (MRF). We were there to give a presentation about

motorcycle only checkpoints. We also had the opportunity to attend other excellent presentations.

If you have never been to MOTM I would highly suggest you make it a point to attend one in the future. Next year it will be in Raleigh NC so it would be convenient for most and a good ride to boot.

These meetings are a great way to meet motorcyclists from other states and talk with them about the problems they face and the solutions that they have come up with. This year one of the featured speakers was Sherman Packard, a legisla-tor from New Hampshire. He had some interesting insights concerning exhaust legislation making its way through New Hampshire and other states. He also made a compelling argument as to why every motorcyclist should be concerned about debates on both the federal and state levels concern-ing highway funds. He pointed out that we as motorcyclists particularly suffer when there are not funds to fix roads. I do not have to tell anyone on this list why we on two wheels fear potholes more than those on four.

I would highly recommend next year’s MOTM to anyone who can take a long weekend to Raleigh. It is informative and a lot of fun. If you are not a member of MRF but are interested in becoming one please contact me.

On another note, I sent out an email last month concern-ing the motorcycle funeral procession that was pulled over in Fairfax. I want to thank all who helped put me in contact with those in attendance. I want to report what I have found so far in looking into this matter.

There are two issues in question. The first is the reason for stopping the funeral procession and the second is the conduct of the officers thereafter. I am not going to comment on the second at this time because I do not have enough information. However I do have enough information on the first question. It is my belief that not only were the Fairfax Police justified in stopping the procession, they were required to do so.

In speaking with those involved I have found that the funeral home moved up the time for the procession to leave. That meant that when the procession reached the Fairfax city limits there was no escort to pick them up. The procession contin-ued using members as road guards at intersections. While I know that most of us have ridden in rides in which members of the ride were deployed in such a manner, please keep in mind that nothing in Virginia State Code allows citizens to stop traffic at intersections. The police could not simply allow the escort to continue under those circumstances and were forced to stop the procession.

I am sure that some who are reading this are thinking to themselves that even if this were true that it does not justify what the police did after the stop. As stated earlier in this email, I am not prepared to comment on that at this time as I have not gathered sufficient facts but continue to work on that.

Thank you again to all who assisted me last month and I hope to see you on the road or at MOTM next year in Raleigh. As always if anyone has any questions or comments concern-ing anything about which I have written please feel free to contact me.

Tech TipsWhistling The Right Tune

As a follow up to last month’s article touching on the basics of electronic fuel injection, this month we will touch on the basics of making it do what we want - better performance, better mileage, improved throttle response, and overall increased smoothness of operation and rideability. The most common terms for modifying the fueling or ignition advance electronically are “tuning” or “mapping.” The actual coding for the engine management system is called a “calibration,” but may sometimes be referred to as a “tune” or “map.”

The most basic way to modify the electronic fueling is with an add-on device that intercepts the signal from the engine con-trol unit (ECU), to the injectors that controls the injector open time. This adjusts the signal duration so that we can increase or decrease the amount of fuel that the injector sprays at different engine speeds and loads. This is how units like Power Commanders, Bazzaz Z-Fi, and many others operate. They use software to interface with each of them that uses a table of engine speed (RPM) and throttle opening position percentage (TPS%) to allow us to add or subtract from the injector on time. Nothing particularly difficult. Some of these units also have the ability to advance or retard ignition timing as well.

Becoming more and more common, are software packages that allow interfacing directly with the stock ECU. Since this uses the stock ECU, no add-on units are required. And the more detailed alteration of fueling and ignition timing are possible by controlling the cylinders individually with tables for throttle position, manifold air pressure, Lambda/AFR, ignition advance in different gears, acceleration compensation, rev and speed limits, and considerably more. Interface software and cables like Harley Davidson’s Race Tuner, YEC Race Tuner, TuneBoy, TuneECU, ECU Editor, etc. are just a few of those that are available, with more becoming available every year.

OK, now we know what is used to alter fuel and ignition parameters, how do we use it? This is most easily done by loading the engine on a chassis dynamometer - “dyno” for short. This is a machine that loads the rear tire and measures the engine’s output at the rear tire. There are two types of dynos that are most commonly used. The first is an inertia dyno that uses a heavy drum (usually a steel pipe filled with concrete or the like) of a known mass. The speed of the drum is measured as it is accelerated and the engine sweeps through its power band. The rate of the acceleration gives us the output at the rear tire. The second type of dyno is an eddy-current brake. This type of dyno uses a series of electromagnets to control a drum so that the engine can be held at any specific speed and load, or a select acceleration rate, or a simple inertia sweep.

There are a couple of different tools used to determine the state of tune of an engine. A wide band Lambda/air fuel ratio (AFR) meter detects residual oxygen in the exhaust gases to determine the mixture ratio. And a multi-gas analyzer reads levels of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxygen, total hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides to give mixture ratio, as well as many other details of what is occurring in a running engine. Both of these tools will help get the mapping in the ballpark, and further testing and tuning are required to produce best output.

With the use of a dyno, Lambda meters, and exhaust gas analyzers, we can measure engine output at various engine speeds and loads. We can then map the ECU to produce best output through its operating range, and still produce improved fuel consumption at cruise. When done correctly, smooth operation with crisp throttle response can be obtained.

Now, why do we need to change the mapping and go to all of the trouble of loading a bike on a dyno, hooking up Lambda meters, gas analyzers, ignition sensors, etc.? In reality, we don’t. We need a roof over our heads, food on our plates, and good health. We don’t need motorcycles. But we ride motorcycles for the sensation of riding, and the exhilaration of ac-celeration, speed, and performance. And the simple fact is that motorcycles do not roll off the showroom floor mapped and calibrated for best performance, smooth operation, and best throttle response possible. Instead the manufacturers are forced to comply with state and federal regulations, as well as costs, that limit what can be done. And as soon as we add or modify parts on the engine that increase flow into or out of the engine, we move further from what it required for best output and operation. As a result of all of this, a tuning session on a dyno may be something that you consider for your motorcycle. If so, call around to local tuning centers and ask questions. Visit several of these shops and speak directly with the dyno operator. And most importantly, become informed on the details of mapping and what is required.

If you never need or desire tuning or mapping of your engine management system on your bike, I hope this at the very least helps to inform you as to the basics of what is involved, and how it is done. Now go out and burn some fuel of your own. I know I plan to. And a good map helps to make it even more enjoyable, and possible to burn a bit less fuel... IF I can keep my right grip reasonable.

POWER-TRIPP Performance, Inc.Motorcycle Performance and Tuning.

A ragged, old, biker shuffled into a down and dirty bar. Stinking of whiskey and cigarettes, his hands shook as he took the “Piano Player Wanted” sign from the window and handed it to the bar-tender. “I’d like to apply for the job,” he said. “I ride an old shovel head and have been repairing them babies for years until the shop I was working at decided to replace me with a youngster straight out of some damn pup wet behind the ears. I learned to play the piano at an old biker bar near the shop, so here I am.” The barkeep wasn’t too sure about this doubtful looking old guy, but it had been quite a while since he had a piano player and business was falling off. So, why not give him a try. The seedy biker staggered his way over to the piano while several patrons snickered. By the time he was into his third bar of music, every voice was silenced. What followed was a rhapsody of soaring music unlike anything heard in the bar before. When he finished there wasn’t a dry eye in the place. The bartender took the old biker a beer and asked him the name of the song he had just played? It’s called “Drop your Skivvies, Baby, I’m Going Balls To The Wall For You” he said. After a long pull from the beer, leaving it empty, he said “I wrote it myself.” The bartender and the crowd winced at the title, but the piano player just went on into a knee-slapping, hand-clapping bit of ragtime that had the place jumping. After he finished, the biker and also ex fighter pilot acknowledged the applause, downed a second proffered mug of ice cold beer, and told the crowd the song was called, “Big Boobs Make My Afterburner Light.” He then launched into another mesmerizing song and everyone in the room was enthralled. He announced that it was the latest rendition of his song, “Spread ‘em Baby, It’s Foggy Out Tonight and I Need To See The Centerline”, excused himself and headed for the john. When he came out the bartender went over to him and said, “Hey biker, the job is yours, but do you know your fly is open and your pecker is hanging out? “Know it?” yelped the old biker, “Hell, I wrote it!”

On the night of a Halloween costume party a couple were having trouble picking suitable outfits. After a while the wife got mad and stormed out of the room. Fifteen minutes later she came back com-pletely naked except for a lemon between her legs. The husband looked at her for a moment and then stormed out of the room him-self. Twenty minutes passed and then he came back himself with a potato around his pecker. The wife gave him a wierd look and then the husband replied, “If you’re going as a sour-puss, I’m going as a dictator”.

Top Ten Reasons Why Trick-or-Treating is Better Than Sex10. You are guaranteed to get at least a little something in the sack.9. If you get tired, wait ten minutes and go back at it again.8. The stranger you look, the easier it is to get some.7. You don’t have to compliment the person who gave it to you.6. Person you are with doesn’t fantasize you’re someone else, you already are.5.

This Halloween I met a genuine Fairy that said she would grant me one wish. “I want to live forever,” I said. “Sorry,” said the Fairy, “I’m not allowed to grant wishes like that!” “Fine,” I said, “then I want to die after Congress gets their heads out of their asses!”“You crafty bastard,” said the Fairy.

Lil’ Johnny got on the bus, sat next to a man reading abook, and noticed he had his collar on backwards.Inquisitive as ever, Lil’ Johnny asked why he wore his collar back-wards. The man, who was a Priest, said, ‘I am a Father..’Lil’ Johnny replied, ‘My Daddy’s a father and he doesn’t wear hiscollar like that.’ The priest looked up from his book and answered, ‘’I am the Father of many. Lil’ Johnny said, ‘’My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls and two grandchildren and he doesn’t wear his collar that way!’ The Priest, getting impatient, said. ‘I am the Father of hun-dreds’, and went back to reading his book. Lil’ Johnny sat quietly thinking for a while, then leaned over and whispered, “Maybe you should wear a condom, and put your pants on backwards instead of your collar.”

GOOD FOR YOUSeafood

How it boosts mood: Selenium is a trace mineral (meaning you don’t need a lot of it each day) found in seafood, which has been linked to mental decline, anxiety, and depression when enough isn’t consumed on a daily basis. In one study, people who followed a high-selenium diet for 15 weeks felt more confident, clear-headed and elated than those on a low-selenium diet. The recommended daily amount of selenium for adults is is 55 mcg. Four ounces of shrimp (6 to 7 large ones) and crab (3/4 cup) have 45 mcg of selenium, and 4 oz. of lobster (3/4 cup) has 48 mcg. In addition, seafood contains small amounts of omega-3s, found to decrease de-pression and improve mood.

SAUSAGE, BACON & CHEESE STUFFED JUMBO SHELLS

1 Whole Package of Your Favorite Bacon1 Tub of Cream Cheese; softened1 Box of Jumbo Pasta Shells for Stuffing1 Package of Your Favorite Sausage; crumbled 2 Bottles of Prepared White Fettucini Sauce (in same sec-tion as spaghetti sauce in any grocery)Dash of ParsleyDash of NutmegFry up your bacon and your crumbled sausage and place on paper towels to drain. Cook up your pasta shells until still a bit chewy as they have to be stuffed and continue cooking in the oven. Mix your sausage and crumbled bacon thoroughly into your softened cream cheese, along with a dash of nutmeg. Stuff your shells carefully. Lay them all in a large casserole dish. Pour as much of the white Fettucini sauce all over, inside and around. Coat them very well. Sprinkle with parsley and bake on 350 for apprx. 30 minutes. Turn broiler on if the top does not have the desired brown & bubbley that you want. But keep a close eye on it.....only takes seconds under the broiler. Serve with some crusty Italian bread and some soft basil butter. These are incredible!

Put your cut-up pieces of chicken in a largebowl, pour your soak all over your chicken pieces and cover it tightly. Place in fridge and allow chicken to soak up flavors for at leas one hour. Take out and place on a very hot grill and cook accordingly on both sides. This is simply the most flavorful chicken possible. So different from traditional Que sauce. You’ll love it because of the difference!

News BytesPENNSYLVANIA MEASURE WOULD LIMIT LEARNER PERMITS ABATE of Pennsylvania is supporting legisla-tion to limit the number of motorcycle learner’s permits allowed before a rider must get a license. “All too often those involved in serious accidents have no motorcycle endorsement on their license,” lobbyist Charles Umbenhau-er of BikePAC told the National Coalition of Motorcyclists (NCOM), adding that “In most cases this also means they have had no formal motorcycle rider training.” State Repre-sentative Seth Grove (R-Dover Township) has introduced legislation aimed at increasing motorcycle safety by requir-ing riders to get a motorcycle license rather than continu-ously reapplying for a motorcycle learner’s permit. Current-ly, an aspiring rider can get a permit after passing a written test, which is good for a year to allow motorcyclists to le-gally ride and gain experience until they get their motorcycle license. However, some riders reapply to renew the permit year after year rather than getting a full license, Grove said. Under Grove’s proposal, a rider would only be allowed to reapply for a learner’s permit three times in 10 years. “The purpose is to make people get the license,” stated Grove, adding that more motorcyclists taking the skills tests or enrolling in the state’s rider training program would mean more trained riders on the road. If a rider doesn’t get a li-cense within 10 years of receiving the first permit, he or she wouldn’t be able to get another permit for seven years. The bill was referred to the transportation committee earlier this year and is expected to be addressed this fall.

ILLINOIS GOVERNOR SEEKS CHANGES TO RED LIGHT BILL Illinois motorcyclists who get stuck at red lights will remain stuck a while longer, as Governor Pat Quinn has vetoed legislation that would have made it legal to pro-ceed through a red light that does not detect motorcycles. However, the bill may yet become law if legislators agree to make some changes. Illinois has what is called an Amenda-tory Veto, wherein the governor can reject a bill as present-ed for signing, but with changes requested that, if met, will win his signature. As written, House Bill 2860 sponsored by Senator Gary Forby (D-Benton) and Representative Daniel Beiser (D-Alton), specifies that motorcyclists could run red lights “after a reasonable period of time.” Quinn objected that such wording is too subjective and “its interpretation could vary from individual to individual and county to coun-ty.” He asked that the bill be changed to specify that the motorcyclist must wait two minutes. Quinn also asked for clarification that motorcyclists would still have to obey signs prohibiting right or left turns on red and would still have to yield to oncoming traffic. ABATE of Illinois supported the measure when it passed the legislature in May, which is similar to laws enacted in 11 other states. “I was kind of disappointed with what the governor done,” said Forby. “ABATE’s going to have to make a decision on whether they want to negotiate with the governor’s office or try to override his veto.” The Illinois Legislature has placed the amenda-tory veto on its calendar for action on October 19.

MOTORCYCLE-ONLY CHECKPOINTS CHALLENGED IN NEW YORK On Monday, August 29, 2011, Robert “Pros-pector” Boellner, State Legislative Coordinator for ABATE of New York, Inc., and NCOM Region VIII Director, met with a representative from the New York State Attorney General’s office to discuss the ongoing motorcycle-only vehicle check-points. Since May 2008, ABATE has publicly expressed its opposition to New York State’s tactic of conducting highway roadblocks which divert only motorcyclists from the state’s roadways for the purpose of conducting “safety checks”.Because motorcycles operated in New York State are already required to pass annual safety inspections, the on-going New York State Police initiative serves only to harass, intimidate and inconvenience motorcyclists traveling upon the state’s roadways. Further, motorcycle-only roadblocks conducted in the name of “safety checks” are a discrimina-tory and unconstitutional infringement upon an individual’s right to travel without interference, and an abuse of dis-cretionary power as acknowledged by the New York State Court of Appeals. The Office of the Attorney General was reportedly receptive to Prospector’s request of an investi-gation into the actions of the New York State Police, and a reporting mechanism has now been implemented for direct complaints of motorcyclist profiling. If you, or anyone you know, has been a victim of motorcyclist profiling, Prospector encourages you to call him at 518-239-4560 for assistance in filing a complaint.

PROFILES OF AMERICAIn recognition of Sturgis Bike Week, the U.S. Census Bureau posted the following daily “Profile America” feature: FRIDAY, AUGUST 12: BIGGEST MOTORCYCLE GATHER-ING - The small town of Sturgis, South Dakota hosts the world’s largest gathering of motorcycles this week -- the 71st Sturgis Rally. Normally home to about 6,600, the town sees its population swell to some 350,000 during the rally. The idea began with just 19 riders taking part in racing and stunt events 71 years ago. Those attending are seeing rac-es, trade shows, and thousands of bikes on display. Mostly, they will share their love of the sense of freedom their motorcycles give them, and take in the scenery of the Black Hills. There are 7.7 million motorcycles registered in the U.S., with California home to about every 10th bike in the country. You can find these and more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau, online at www.census.gov.Profile America is produced by the Public Information Office of the U.S. Census Bureau. These daily features are avail-able as produced segments, ready to air, on a monthly CD or on the Internet at http://www.census.gov (look for “Multi-media Gallery” by the “Newsroom” button).


News Bytes6 MILLIONTH MOTORCYCLIST GRADUATES FROM RIDER TRAINING The Motorcycle Safety Foundation recently graduated its six millionth RiderCourse student, a milestone reached through the ongoing efforts of nearly 10,000 RiderCoaches at more than 2,000 training sites worldwide. “We have RiderCourses across the nation and around the globe, often during weekdays, and virtually every weekend of the year,” said Robert Gladden, vice president of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, adding that a wide variety of MSF RiderCourses are available in every state to provide motorcyclists everywhere with lifelong learning opportunities. “From the Basic RiderCourse to a much more advanced day on the track, from standard mo-torcycles to scooters to three-wheel motorcycles, from small bikes to large, we cover it all,” said Dr. Ray Ochs, MSF di-rector of training systems. In addition, the MSF collaborates with safety professionals worldwide. For example, the MSF is currently helping establish rider training in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The MSF works with all branches of the U.S. Armed Services to support riders in the military. And the Foundation also works with world champion road racers on track-based programs that improve rider safety everywhere. “The MSF is still best known for its world renowned Basic RiderCourse, the best first motorcycle ride for any new street rider and the cornerstone of the MSF’s Essential CORE curriculum,” said Tim Buche, president of the MSF. “We want all riders to start with the BRC, then continue their education with the Basic Bike Bonding, Street RiderCourses and more.” Founded in 1973, the MSF is a not-for-profit organization sponsored by BMW, BRP, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Piaggio, Suzuki, Triumph, Victory and Yamaha to promote safety through rider training and education, operator licensing tests and public information programs.

FLORIDA COPS USE SECRET FILES ON BIKERS TO LOBBY AGAINST GUN LAW Florida law-enforcement of-ficials dipped into secret intelligence files to lobby against legislation that would have allowed holders of concealed-weapons permits to carry their guns openly. Newly released records show that a staff lobbyist for the Orange County Sheriff’s Office handed out restricted photos of bikers with valid concealed weapons permits to lawmakers as ex-amples of the sort of people who might scare away tourists if they displayed their pistols. “I actually stopped by every one of you guy’s office this morning and dropped off … photographs of some biker outlaw gang guys that have con-cealed firearm permits. Those are the ones we’re worried about carrying,” sheriff’s Capt. Mike Fewless told the state Senate Judiciary Committee on April 12, 2011. “Please de-feat this terrible bill.” After the provision allowing open carry of firearms was removed from the bill, the state Senate

voted against the measure, prompting accusations of fear-mongering by law-enforcement officials and raising con-cerns about police misuse of confidential files for political goals. All together, Fewless obtained photographs and other information for 17 “outlaw bikers” from the Orange sheriff’s Intelligence Squad, an undercover unit that investigates “motorcycle gangs, white supremacy groups and organized crime,” specifically asking for pictures of “One Percenters”, state attorney’s records show. Seven of the eight photos of members of the Mongols, Outcasts, Outlaws, Pagans and Warlocks motorcycle clubs came originally from the state Driver and Vehicle Identification (DAVID) system, which Federal law classifies as “highly restricted personal information.” None of the bikers had felony records and all were eligible for concealed-weapon permits recognized by Florida and 34 other states. The motorcyclists are now represented by Aid to Injured Motorcyclists (A.I.M.) Attorney Jerry Theophilopoulos, who said he is planning to file a law-suit against the sheriff’s office. “The only way to police the police when they break the law is to file a lawsuit, and we are prepared to get justice for all concealed weapon permit holders in this state,” according to “Jerry T”, who serves as legal counsel for the Confederations of Clubs in Florida and advises ABATE of Florida on legal matters.

DRIVING WHILE BIKERFrom the Gunny’s Sack, a monthly newsletter from Oregon A.I.M. Chief of Staff Gunny Hutcheson, members of the Henchmen MC have hired a lawyer to put the San Jose Police department on notice that harassment is not going to be tolerated without a fight. They’ve filed an official com-plaint with the city’s Office of the Independent Police Auditor alleging that the police are illegally profiling them, and the city’s code enforcement unit is digging up zoning beefs to run them out of town. They say officers routinely pull them over, sometimes photographing their tattoos, based solely on their bad-boy reputations. The Henchmen’s complaint is not the first time a motorcycle club in San Jose has fought the law using the law. Five years ago, the Hells Angels won $1.8 million after suing police and sheriff’s deputies for ille-gally raiding the club’s headquarters and members’ homes to link a bouncer, charged with killing a drunken bar patron, to the biker club. A jury acquitted the bouncer and a federal court sided with the Hells Angels. “This kind of thing has come to a halt in Washington with their recent biker anti-profiling law, thanks to the Washington Confederation of Clubs and A.I.M. Attorney Marty Fox,” writes Gunny, “Fight-ing harassment by using a lawyer and the court system.”

Tattoo Of The Month


Yes Lord, We’ll Ride With You; Riding For The Son

Sometimes in life, the courage to walk up to someone you don’t know and say those first words can be tough. Finding the courage to walk up to the stereotypical tough man biker and just start talking about salvation…well, that can be even tougher. But it is a courage that disabled Vietnam vet Michael Largay has obtained, and it is a courage that has become his passion.

“Excuse me sir, but do you know about Jesus,” he asked when he first walked up to this reporter in Century Saturday. “I wondered if I could tell you a little bit about Him.” He was unaware at the time the he was speaking to a reporter.

That’s what Michael does. Everywhere he goes, even if it is in the middle of a rough biker gang. He has turned his Honda Goldwing into a tool for reaching the lost and pointing them toward the Golden Gates of Heaven.

“We ride for the Lord,” he said of the group he participates with, the Christian Motorcycle Association (the CMA). The Bible says in Luke14:23 “And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” That’s the motto of the bikers that ride with the group. They hit the highways and let other bikers know about the Lord. Anytime, anywhere. Even if it is at the Florida Welcome Center on I-10 waiting for bikers on their way to the notoriously wild Daytona Bike Week.

“Just being on this bike opens doors,” Michael said of his Honda Goldwing, which was recently named the best in class at the Florida Goldwing Rally. “This is a missionary tool. Just being on this bike has a way of attracting other bikers to speak.”“A lot of bikers are not the typical people that would go to a regular church on Sunday. They say ‘a church ain’t cool’, so they are not going to come to know the Lord that way. “But if you go up to them and say ‘hey, can I bless your bike’ that usually works. That opens the door. You can ask them before you start if there’s anything you can pray for in their lives.”

“Lord, bless this bike, and keep it and its rider safe on the highways,” he said his prayer usually beings. “Then you add ‘Lord, bless this man and his problems’. They come to realize that God is their God too, and He cares about them. And that they can come to know Him.” “Bikers know when they see this patch that they can get anything they need, whether it be medical help, mechanical help, money or prayer,” he said pointing to his CMA patch that says “Riding for the Son”.

Another man walks over, admiring the Honda Goldwing. “I wish I could

get a bike like this,” he told Michael, “but my wife would never let me.”“Do you know Jesus,” Michael asked the man. “Yes sir, I do. We love Him, and we go to Ray’s Chapel,” the man said.

“Well, tell her that you could get a bike and do missionary work for the Lord. She might let you get one.”

Michael’s friend and fellow CMA member David Davis both sing in the choir at East Brent Baptist Church in Pensacola. Davis said he never misses the opportunity to witness, especially to children. “I like meeting other people, especially children, and telling them about Jesus,” David said. “Yeah, he will practically chase a child down to give them a Bible, Michael said. Michael never missed an opportunity to tell others about Jesus either. He recently joined a Honda Goldwing group in Pensacola. “That’s open more channels for me to tell others about Jesus, because I got to lead prayer for the group.”

“If just one person, just one, can come to know the Lord because of what I do, I will be a happy man,” he said. “It is not about the number of people you lead to Jesus. It is about talking and talking to people until the Lord leads you to that one person that needs to be saved.” “It’s all about Him. It’s all about Jesus.”

I recently took a class at a conference on the parking of vehicles on highways and roadways during an emer-gency situation. It was extremely informative, these types of classes usually are. During one of the many videos that we viewed during the class, I noticed that there was a motorcycle police officer that was working an accident on a busy suburban boulevard, along with other emergency vehicles on the scene. Many emergency vehicles are the target of secondary collisions at the original accident
