I guess i question why u would be upset about how this club is being formed and run.
Skyman, you have had AMPLE opportunities to come out and talk to us and give your opinion in person. i have taken time out of MY family time to go to our club meetings so i can be heard and to MEET other club members. It's too easy to say i belong to a club and NEVER come to our meets. I think that is just common sense when u say you belong to a club. Perhaps i am in the minority but i doubt it. Skyman, i have no ill feelings toward you, and i wish you the best.
From what I recall there have only been 4 "Meetings" at the most, and one get together for a ride, and as I recall most if not all of the Meetings were at a location that I do not think is a family type business. You can disagree if you want but like I said before I have never been to a Hooters and never will, and if you insist on holding meetings in those type Establishments then I will never be attending. So on that account alone I don't feel that this is the club for me and my wife.
Another thing with me and I don't know why i am even telling you this, Is since I have been unemployed, I have been trying to use my Gas budget as wisely as i can, making a 200 mile trip and spending 4 hours of travel time a month would take most of my extra gas budget I have allocated. This month I used part it to go with my son to the Tail of the Dragon... and what budget I have saved this month and the past two months is going to go for a trip next month with my wife to Myrtle Beach, which we have not been on a vacation in over a year and a half.... So which do you see as being most important. Attending meetings in locations that are 100 miles away, or making my money count with my family?

PS. By the way, Glad you used my suggestion about putting the website address on the shirt.. if I didn't care about the club and how it was run I wouldn't have made the suggestion...
