Taking Suggestions!



Ah the winds of spring!  It still is winter by the calendar but today I am sitting here at the computer and outside the winds are howling.  Soon it will be St. Patrick’s Day and then the first day of spring on March 21!
Hopefully all of you are thinking of warmer weather and days riding our motorcycles.   After our last officers meeting, we are suggesting that each of you start thinking of what you would like our club to do this riding season -like ride!  Often!  Have you been on a great road or been in an interesting part of the state?  If you have been riding with other groups is there a ride that you thought was challenging, scenic, or was there a cute little place to eat in some small town?  Bring your suggestions to our monthly meeting on February 28th!
All of us have busy lives with family, work, church or children.  We are proposing that at our meeting, we plan a ride on the 2nd Saturday of each month and possibly a ride during the week maybe on a Tuesday.  That way we can put these rides on our own personal calendar and it is something we can plan on weather permitting.  Any impromptu rides would be great also, but these planned rides will make it easier for some members to make plans to join up with our club and have fun.
I hope all of you have been checking in with Women on Wheels® Facebook page about our upcoming summer rally in Greenville S.C.  as this is the best way to stay abreast on the itinerary and hotel information that might be good to know. You should start thinking about getting reservations made and sending in your money for the registration.
Susan, Rose, Margaret and I have thought that perhaps a separate meeting for anyone interested in going to South Carolina on Saturday March 3rd at 10:30 at the Panera in Dublin off of Avery/Murfield road. We could discuss who would be leaving when and I know Rose has some great routes thought out like Cherahala Skyway, the Devils Triangle and I’m sure most of us want to ride the infamous Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap!  
Keep browsing all those bike catalogs, drooling over gear and gadgets. It will be warm soon and we will be out riding.

I have been asked if males can accompany us on rides, I would like to know what the group thinks about this, are WOW rides exclusively women,what is the concensous of our group? You can reply here or on facebook, I should be able to see it. More on the route later, I will have it put together by end of week and post it or e-mail it to Directors to possible mass e-mail it.
