Chapter Director
Greetings from the director.  It's February 11, and we have six more months until spring
(or so it seems).  What a grand time we had at Cabin Fever on Feb. 6th - 32 friends of
two-wheelers were there, with 12 members from NE-C. I did find out that Don Griffin
 cannot be Individual of the Year for our chapter because his wife is a member of and
 involved with GWRRA.  We will need to make an other selection at our next meeting.
  Also, six from the Missouri chapter attended our Cabin Fever and were a lot of fun. 
Our new Region E director (Clayton Alcorn) and spouse, and the Region E Couple
of the Year (Glen and Carol White)were included.  The high school bowlers are going
to state in Lincoln, February 13th-14th.  The boys won the D2 District tournament and
the girls were runner-up.  The week-end district were held were extremely stressful.
 I got a phone call the Friday before that I needed to be a certified coach or the teams
would not qualify for either that or state bowling.  Somehow we got through it, but it
wasn't a pretty twenty-four hours of hell, believe me!!  #1 son will be 19 on February
10th and he will be old enough to serve alcohol, but not drink it. Information for the
 host/hostess of the March meeting, Chapter O would like to attend, so please plan for
 that direction and let everyone know where we're going.

Assistant Chapter Director
Greetings fellow gold wingers. How is everyone? I hope great as the weather sure hasn't been.
 We had our cabin fever week end last week end in West Point and had a great turn out,
 considering the weather wasn't very good. Thanks to all who made the week end. Our next
chapter get together will be on the 21st of February @ The "T" Bone restaurant in Columbus
 around noonish, I believe.  It will be hosted by Dick and Mary Lou Stamm. Thank you Dick and
 Mary Lou for hosting the get together and I hope everyone can make our get together as we
 do have fun. Speaking of fun, we had a blast last month in Dodge Nebraska at the bowling
alley for our monthly get together, hosted by Dave & Sharon Kumpf. A very good turn out,
 thanks to all who showed up and Thank you Tim and Theresa for hosting it. Spring is just
around the corner (rumor has it) and I hope everyone plans on riding often and safely. I have
 plans to ride to Texas to see my youngest daughter and her lovely family and also hope to
 make it to Wing Ding in Des Moines as well as our other district functions and stuff. I really
don't know much of anything else so I will close for now saying we are
 friends for fun, safety and knowledge. Later and God Bless..Larry
 


                                                                        Safety        
This might be a good time to review any of your emergency notification
 information to make sure phone numbers have not changed. You might
                also make sure you have some good quality latex gloves in your first aid kit.                 
                       Happy Trails-_-_-_-_-_   Dave and Karen

Full Throttle Motorsports is committed to building a relationship with several
riding clubs including the GWTA and GWRRA. In doing so we are introducing a
new discount program exclusively for all members of these two organizations. 
Simply stop down to our store, show your club card & sign up for our monthly 
newsletter and we will issue you a 20% off discount card. This can be used in our 
parts and service department & has no expiration date as long as you are a current 
club member. We only ask that when using this discount you present both your 
club membership card and Full Throttle discount card at the time of your purchase.

 No other dealership is currently offering this amount of discount for club members. 
We strive to provide the best service to all our customers and feel that offering this 
discount program to club members will benefit everyone. We will be working with
both clubs throughout the year on riding events and additional promotions.

 Full Throttle Motorsports is an authorized dealer for Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki
and Polaris. Our Service department caters to all makes including Harley & Victory.

 If you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime with questions.
