―NEVER FRY BACON NAKED‖- UNKNOWN

Well, with Labor Day just a memory, it‘s time to pre-

pare for the change. Not necessarily the weather, or

the riding conditions but the wardrobe change. It‘s

time to put the plaid seersucker shorts, the white pat-

ent leather belt and shoes away until next year.

I‘d say it‘s time to start thinking about the District

Rally in Carlsbad, but if you haven‘t already been

thinking about it, what have you been doing? The

Rally is going to be a good, no, GREAT time. There

will be all sorts of exciting things for you to participate

in. Lisa and I are looking forward to it, I hope you are

too. We can‘t wait to see you all there.

Remember the good old days when you could go to

a concert for $8, well as with everything, the times

they are a changing. Remember when the band

played their epic ballad and everyone pulled out their

lighters. Well we went to a concert the other night

and when they played their epic ballad everyone

pulled out their smart phones and turned on the

flashlights. While it was quite a sight to see, I did feel

slightly left out of the craze as I pulled out the lone

Zippo. Now don‘t worry, I won‘t be running out to get

a smart phone for the next show, sometimes it‘s

good to be OLD SCHOOL.

I know you remember OLD SCHOOL. 3 on the tree,

drive in movies, drinking from the hose, push mowers

(without motors), and 8 track tapes. In the hustle and

bustle of life, doesn‘t it feel good to be unplugged

sometimes?

On September 11th take some time and unplug and

remember those we lost. Thank a service member or

a first responder for their service.

NEVER FORGET.

Musings of your ACD

As I was traveling to Clovis, NM for the other kind of motorcycle rally; I was thinking about the rally I am attending and the rally I am going to attend on the 25, 26 and 27 of this month. They are driven in two different directions. The rally here is about seeing old friends, doing some riding, and of course eating, it wouldn‘t be a rally without eating.

Now our district rally has all of that but we also have lots of educational opportunities for better riding, your life in general, and first aid. Now I‘m not saying that ours is better, its purpose is just different. They both have their places in the world of motorcycling.

LOOK What‘s NEW at the District Convention!

I am excited to tell you about three new events to be held at this years‘ New Mexico District Conven-tion in Carlsbad.

The first one is: Thrifty Styles. This style

show will be held on Friday, September 26 from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. There will be individuals from various Chapters in the District modeling breathtak-ing outfits that they purchased at thrifty prices. Everyone enjoys going for a great ride, but the la-dies, as well as the men, want to look their best when they are not riding. So make sure you attend to find out what these models are wearing and for tips on how and what to look for in clothing when you are shopping. You don‘t want to miss this event.

The second one is: Scrapbooking. This class

will be held on Saturday, September 27 from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. This class is open to both men and women. Maybe you are already into scrapbooking, maybe you‘re a novice, or maybe you have always wanted to learn how to scrap book but have not taken the time to get started. Well, now is the per-fect time to take a cut into scrapbooking. All sup-plies will be provided. You just have to bring your own pictures, learn how to organize your pictures, how to be creative in placing your pictures in al-bums, and what unlimited options are available when you start scrapbooking. Let your imaginative and creative side come out. You should be able to complete at least one if not two pages for a scrap book. If you are already a scrap booker, just bring

your scrapbooking materials along and work on your latest album. This is a great way to memorial-ize and start a Chapter scrapbook, family vacation album, chapter ride, etc. Come, relax and enjoy some great craft time.

The third one is:Cell Phone Q & A. This class will

be held on Saturday, September 27 from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. This class will focus on technical and usage questions only. Billing questions will not be answered. Every wonder how to refresh your cell phone to the cell phone towers? Do you have app questions? Some basic technical instructions will be provided for cell phones as well as more spe-cific questions on usage. Make sure you bring your cell phone to this class and your technical questions.

So what have you been thinking about this winter? Have you been thinking about the gray skies, the rain, sleet or snow of the season? And how about the freezing tem-peratures? These are not very cheerful thoughts for those of us who are not winter sports enthusiasts. Some riders brighten their outlook at this time of year by plan-ning for the coming riding season. A few of us are decid-ing which motorcycling events to attend this spring and summer. Will it be the Americade rally in upstate New York? Maybe this year you are planning to attend Wing Ding? How about a vacation trip to an area with great roads to ride or interesting geological attractions to see? Whatever your destination, planning the route to take is an important part of trip planning. However, don‘t over-look the need to plan the gear you will need to take with you on each of your trips. Having the proper gear for the ride is an essential element of a successful trip.

So why not start with your most important safety gear? Inspect your helmet for wear and tear. How long has it been since you bought your helmet? Does the outer shell have chips or cracks? Has it sustained an impact while you were wearing it? Has it been repeatedly dropped from your motorcycle seat? Realize that helmets are only designed to survive one impact while being worn. Also look at the chin strap. Is it frayed from many years of wear? These signs of damage indicate that it may be time to replace your helmet. Experts advise changing your helmet every 3 to 5 years for maximum protection. Time, wear and ultraviolet rays will cause your helmet‘s materials to degrade resulting in reduced protection. (www.snellfoundation.org.)

Are you planning a southern tour this summer? Have you thought to check the weather for the area you plan to visit? Be sure you know what the average high and low temperatures are for the month of your visit. If you expect to encounter hot weather, this may be the time for you to start shopping for a mesh jacket if you don‘t already own one. These jackets give you the best abrasion protection (if needed) along with maximum ventilation. Good venti-lation reduces your discomfort in hot weather and can help prevent heat exhaustion. Even though they have long sleeves, when you wear a mesh jacket the air flows around you almost as if you are wearing nothing. And the synthetic materials provide excellent abrasion resistance.

With elbow, shoulder and back pads included, you get great protection for your ‗corners‘ and your back in case you go down.

Wise riders always wear long pants while riding. Most riders wear denim jeans. This is probably because they are already part of everyone‘s wardrobe to begin with, and they are comfortable when you are not on the bike. They do provide some resistance to abrasion, but not anywhere near the protection of leather or the synthetic gear. Did you know there are also riding pants made from breathable mesh materials, too? They bring all the benefits of being designed specifically for motorcycling with extra protection at the knees, hips, and legs in case of a spill at speed. The mesh material can also help keep you from getting uncomfortably hot. And there are gloves manufactured with the same mesh materials to protect your hands as well. They provide you with a good grip on the controls while keeping your hands fully covered for maximum protection. They are durable and worth check-ing out for your comfort and protection.

Can you rely on your current rain gear? Does your rain gear have leaky seams or rips? Do you need to put a new jacket or rain pants on the shopping list? Having good, comfortable gear that fits you properly for all riding conditions will allow you to fix your attention on the ride and not on your physical discomforts. This will also help ensure that you will have a great trip. And knowing that you and your co-rider have the protection you may need will give you peace of mind every time you saddle up. Now, which route do we want to take?

Monthly Social September 11,2014

August Social at the Albuquerque BioPark

On August 14th we met at the Biopark for a

night of music and friendship. Lisa arrived early

and staked out our preferred location by

spreading chairs and blankets around. In atten-

dance were, Joe and Peg Pool, Dave and Lisa,

Richard and Christy, Mike and Vicky Dalby,

Cindi, and Tracey Mummey (Richard‘s sister)

and her friend Robbye.

We glad handed and hugged all around, took a

walk through the gardens and enjoyed a picnic

supper, all while enjoying the music. The night

was beautiful, the music cool and the friend-

ship welcome.

As the sun went down and the night cooled off,

the bats came out. Could this be a harbinger of

things to come in Carlsbad? The Biopark is a

not so hidden treasure in the city. The place

was packed with people practically sitting on

one another, children running around and one

couple throwing glow sticks into the crowd for

the children of all ages.

Lisa and I have been going almost every

Thursday in the summers for over 10 years. It‘s

a nice escape in an oasis in the desert. If you

missed it, you missed a great time.

D&L

September social was held at Standard Diner at 6:30pmwith 15 members. Those attending were Lee H.

and Diane B., Mike D,., Janet L. Harry and Amy J., Monique K. Chris and Annette P., Dave and Lisa B.,

Tom B. and Grace A. and Christy P. and Richard M. The wait staff took great care of the rowdy bunch

and the food matched the service. Mike D. Had a BIG smile as he rode in with his new ride...2008 Harley

Davidson FLHTC. Welcome to the darkside Mike!

Colorado Rally Aug. 25-27 Dave and Lisa Bachman

Lisa and I along with Richard and Christy met up

early on Thursday morning to trek up to Breckenridge

for the Colorado Rally. A few left earlier and some ar-

rived later that evening. We made good time and

stopped in Alamosa for gas and breakfast, unfortu-

nately the restaurant I planned on eating at was being

remodeled so we had an early lunch instead.

We arrived and checked in to our respective abodes.

Lisa and I were up the hill at our condo about 300

yards away, more about that later. After checking in

we walked down to the Rally Host Hotel. On our way

we decided to take a short cut through the property

below us. After climbing back up the hill when we real-

ized we were trapped, we walked down the street and

hit the main drag. We walked about a mile and a half.

We found if we turned right instead of left we could be

there in about 3/10ths of a mile. Now we know. Well

as the weekend progressed and we did a good

amount of walking, one of the staff showed us a short

cut through our property turning our trek into about

300 yards.

We went into town several times and watched the bi-

cycle race, and found some cool places to eat. One

little Cajun joint had Oyster Poor Boys, yummy!

At opening ceremonies, where they drew the pre-

registration 50/50, wouldn‘t you know it, Richard wins

one of the drawings. Not nearly done, Richard wins

another 50/50 at closing ceremonies. Refreshments

on Richard!

The Rally theme was from ―Back to the Future‖ and

the gang was all there, Doc, Marty, Biff, and not the

least Loraine. There were themed contests, light

shows, bike shows and even a magician.

The weather at night brought the temperature down to

a balmy 40 degrees, and it was beautiful in the morn-

ing sitting on the balcony having coffee. One morning I

spotted a fox walking through the property hunting. He

caught some sort of rodent, but alas dropped it. The

ensuing 20 minutes of chase around one of the shuttle

tires was fun to watch. People walked within 5 feet of

him and it didn‘t seem to faze him. He finally gave up

and wandered off.

We left with original group and added Harry and Amy

for the ride home. We stopped in Salida for breakfast

and then mounted back up for the trek home. The

weather was good, the Rally was fun and the friend-

ship wonderful. What a beautiful spot for a Rally. You

should have been there.

Annual Chapter W picnic August 17,2014

The Annual Chapter W picnic was held at Oak Flats

in the Manzano mountains. There was some great food!

Dave made BBQ chicken and baked beans, Chris made

brisket, and there was potato salad, corn on the cob, and

several members brought desserts.

Games, there was the frozen T-shirt, Jenga, toilet

plunger and ring, and the great whip cream and cheetos

game. Having a ‗hot‘ head makes the whip cream melt!!!

Everyone had a great time except for Russ Hall who

thought he might have to stay there. His motorcycle had

a dead battery, and he had to turn to the dark side for

help and assistance. Dave and his trusty Dodge! (One

Chapter director helping another one)!

It was nice visiting with all three Chapters, and a

good time was had by all. It was a great success!

decided to sit down.

ing battery cable to

Success!!!!!

On August 21st, Christy and I met up with Dave

and Lisa Bachman to ride to the Colorado District

rally held in Breckenridge, CO. Our route was up

on US285 to Alamosa for fuel and eats, on CO17

to US24 before Buena Vista, then to CO9 at Fair-

play. There we brought out the rain gear as it was

getting overcast and Hoosier Pass is at 11,539

feet...and cold.

Once we were in Breckenridge, we found our

rooms while Dave and Lisa's had an adventurous

walk (Dave will explain). Then we met at the reg-

istration desk, toured the convention and waited

for the opening ceremonies. Dinner was provided

by the rally. I was a 50/50 winner, great way to

begin! The theme of the rally-Back to the Future.

Friday, we walked to town for breakfast and to

check out the village. There was a bicycle race

going on -Tour of Colorado, and Breckenridge

was one of the stages. They blocked all the roads

in town, so we stood at the barricades and

watched the riders whizzing by very fast at 35-

45mph, some in large groups. Then we had fun

trying on some crazy hats.

When we got back to our room, it was time for

the banquet and entertainment. The meal was

good. Christy and I sat at a table with a group

from Mexico. Talking with them (Hablo muy poco

espanol!), they were three brothers, their

spouses, and two friends, traveling the United

States on their Goldwing trikes. A magician was

the evening entertainment and he was a great

act!

Saturday was the closing ceremony and I was

another 50/50 winner, except some did not like

my Harley rain jacket that I had on as it was cold

in the tent...oh well....Winner winner!

Riding back, Harry and Amy joined our group.

Eateries that we tried in Breckenridge:

The Blue Moose—breakfast was very good,

strong coffee.

The Lost Cajun--po' boy sandwiches. Cajun

food at 9,700 feet!!!

Columbine Cafe--pancakes the size of a pizza

--12", weak coffee but good food.

Breckenridge Brewery--great food and re-

freshment!

The rally was well planned with seminars, a ven-

dor room, a motorcycle simulator, bike and light

show and a couple of chapter events.

We had a great time and great company!

Our illustrious ride to Deming started out on a cool

September morning. Bikes fueled, motors running,

and 3 riders ready to go. Where’s Gary??? Just at

the last minute, he pulled in on his new burgundy

1800 trike. Sorry guys he said, I’m running a little

late. Something about the bathroom, I don’t want to

talk about it.

After a quick cup of coffee, we were ready to go!

That being, Mike Dalby, on his new Dark Side

Harley, Gary Longhurst on his above mentioned

1800 trike. Did I say he got a new trike? And did I

mention, Mike is riding a new for him, Harley

Davidson and yours truly, with his every present co

rider, Michele, on our 1500 Goldwing. Enough of

the back story…

We finally got our bikes in gear and made our way

to Exit 89 and to Datil, NM. From Datil we headed

to Reserve for a quick breakfast and onto Silver City.

From there, it was to Deming for a great lunch at the

Adobe Deli, what an exceptional, eclectic décor,

large cigar lounge, a fabulous bar and steaks that are

out of this world.

After a great lunch, we were on our way to Hills-

boro. Four GeoCaches found and two more to go!

The ride from Deming to Hillsboro on NM27 is very

challenging with curves, hills, occasional debris in

the road and worth every minute of it. We did a

quick tour of Hillsboro, a little dirt bike riding on the

Goldwing, quick GeoCache at the Miller House and

it was time to head for home.

Of the three long distance rides we took this sum-

mer, this was by far the best. Absolutely perfect

scenery, curvy road after curvy road, very little to no

traffic and the best part, great company! 640 miles of

Pure Bliss!
